East River Baptist Church is a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located on the Northeast side of Houston, Texas. Our mission as an assembly is threefold: - To Exalt the Saviour! Eph. 3:21 - To Edify the Saints! Eph. 4:16 - To Evangelize the Sinners! Lk 24:47 What we believe about the Scriptures: We believe that the scriptures of both Old and New Testament are verbally inspired of God, that they are the supreme and final authority for faith and practice, and are preserved in the Authorized Version (KJV 1611) of the Bible. 2 Timothy 3:16. Psalm 12:6-7. What we believe about God: We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. That God is supreme in His person, absolute in His attributes, glorious in His perfection, and eternal in His being. 1 John 5:7. What we believe about Jesus: We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ. His conception by the Holy Spirit, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His death on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins, His bodily resurrection, His exaltation at God's right hand, and His personal imminent, pre-millennial, and pre-tribulation return. Matthew 1:20. 2 Corinthians 1:21. Ephesians 1:7. Luke 24:6, 39. 1 Timothy 2:5. What we believe about Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, one with the Father and the Son, the indweller of every believer to enlighten, guide, and enable him in life, testimony, and service, and seal each believer until the day of redemption of the body. John 15:26. John 14:7 What we believe about man: We believe that God created man in His image and likeness (a triune being: spirit, soul, and body) in a state of innocence's, but through temptation, he willingly transgressed, became dead in trespasses and sins. As a result, his posterity (all men) inherited a corrupt nature, are born in sin, and are under condemnation. Genesis 1:26. Psalm 51:5. Romans 5:12.

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 2 | Episode 4 The last book of the Bible is a letter written to seven churches in the first century.

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 2 | Episode 3 Who was John? What world did he step into and why should that shape our understanding of Revelation? Many believe that he was John the disciple of Jesus. However, evidence seems to point in a different direction. What we do know, however, is that Jesus used him in a powerful way. The last book of the Bible is a revelation to John! These episodes are the first several videos in a course called: Revealing Jesus.

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 2 | Episode 2 How does Revelation "Reveal Jesus?" The opening line of the book makes a compelling claim: "A Revelation of Jesus Christ." This is the purpose of the last book of the Bible, but we often struggle to understand how the Jesus of the Gospels is anything like the image of him we see in Revelation. When we step into the ancient world, these struggles start to resolve. These episodes are the first several videos in a course called: Revealing Jesus.

In this episode, Jay and Isaac chat with Kurt Willems. Kurt is the founding lead pastor of Pangea Church in Seattle and writes for various print and online publications, including the Pangea Blog and Theology Curator. He also hosts the Paulcast and Rapture Drill podcasts. On this episode, we discuss the massive, common misunderstandings about the book of Revelation and how we’ve gotten to reading the book so wrongly over the years. We also discuss what a responsible reading of Revelation means for our understanding of the end of the world, where the human story is headed and the immense hope we have in Jesus Christ.

Kurt Willems joins the Bros (at 24:00) to talk about how he fell "in love" with the apostle Paul and what he's up to with his excellent podcasts, "The Paulcast" & "Rapture Drill". Whether you already dig Paul, or you think he's a total jerk (like Zack does/used to...it's complicated), you'll enjoy what Kurt has to say. Also we try to solve some Revelation riddles.

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 8 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt explores the mysterious and infamous number in the bible: 666. It is the topic of horror films and turn-or-burn preachers alike. But what did it mean in the first century? What significance does it have for us today or in the future?

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 7 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt continues to look at Revelation in broad sweeps. Specifically, he looks at the 'dragon' (devil) and the two 'beasts' who show up in popular conversation about Revelation. Who are they for John and his audience? You might be surprised that the beasts are likely not some future deceivers.  Here’s a free resource: Revelation Cheat Sheet, pdf!

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 6 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt Willems explores the imperial cult, the gods of the Roman Empire, and how they influence the 7 cities in Revelation. The followers of Jesus have to navigate how to give the slaughtered Lamb their full allegiance, when the forces around them seek to take captive their imaginations. Worship anchors them either in the ideology of Rome or in the way of Jesus. Here’s a free resource: Revelation Cheat Sheet, pdf!

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 5 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt Willems looks at Revelation through its broad themes and genre. It is apocalyptic literature and must be read as such. It is a book of resistance and hope in the midst of oppression. Civil religion wants our imagination; this allegiance of the mind belong only to the Slaughtered Lamb. Here’s a free resource: Revelation Cheat Sheet, pdf!

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 4 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt Willems talks about a self-proclaimed "Christian Numerologist" and multi-failed rapture predictor, David Meade. The conspiracy theories continue to abound, especially when it comes to using numbers and constellations in the sky to predict a rapture. But here's the deal: apocalyptic language doesn't function like that in the Hebrew Scriptures or when the New Testament utilizes it.  Here’s a free resource: Revelation Cheat Sheet, pdf!

Subscribe via iTunes or Google Season 1, Episode 3 (Spring Season, 2018) In this episode, Kurt Willems considers the real life of John, the author of the book of Revelation. It is quite plausible that John was a refugee in a literal sense. He was part of a Jewish group of Jesus followers in Jerusalem, who were forced to flee for their lives to Asia Minor when Rome came in and eventually destroyed Jerusalem. What would this backstory mean for John, now 20-something years after the dramatic events? No wonder he as no love for the ways of Empire! Here’s a free resource: Revelation Cheat Sheet, pdf!

Why do we need a podcast that is devoted to such a controversial and confusing topic? What is a "rapture drill" anyway? Why do so many people feel the need to prepare for the end?
