Now unto the King Eternal (September 29, 2019) – Elder Bryce Lowrance begins preaching from 1st Timothy chapter 1.

Brother Bryce then turns to the testimony of the Apostle Paul and how Paul affirms the only way we are in Christ is by grace and that it’s all about what Christ did, ultimately considering just what we should take away from Paul’s declaration in verse 17 “Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.”
