The Unity of Christ

Ephesians 4:1-6
Pastor Cory is back in our series on Ephesians with this message starting the second-half of the book. The first half of Ephesians was all doctrine. Beginning here in chapter 4, Paul is moving to practical application of this doctrine in our lives as believers. And what does he start with? Unity. The apostle knows that nothing in our walk with God will be as fruitful as Christ desires if we are not unified as a body of believers (i.e. His church). Our common faith in Christ unites us deeper than we can imagine if we will only set aside our trivial differences for what trumps anything that can divide us, our Lord, Savior, and Redeemer.
The calling for every Christian is to take the gospel to the ends of the earth. Well, where does the earth begin and where does it end? For us at Bald Mountain Baptist Church, the world begins in the Shumont Community on top of a little peak in Buncombe County, NC. Our prayer is that through this platform we might do our part in reaching the ends of the earth with the gospel!
We have finally gotten our back-content uploaded, praise the Lord! Thank you so much for bearing with us. From now on we will be uploading 1 message per week on Sundays as our schedule allows. We are currently in our series on Worship, and will be continuing in this series for the foreseeable future. Pastor Cory is also making his way through the book of Ephesians in his messages. We at Bald Mountain Baptist Church are so glad you have joined us here, and our prayer is that you are blessed by this message!
Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.
Isaiah 42:10-11

Troy Westmoreland and Cory Martinez are the co-pastors of Bald Mountain Baptist Church. They alternate on a semi-regular basis, and our prayer is that their insights from the Word of God may richly bless all those who stop by our neck of the woods!
