Last Sunday I preached a sermon on the 8th commandment: You shall not commit adultery.
My aim was to leave the listener hating the sin but loving the Savior.
May this be an encouragement to you for the same.

In 2024, 16,499 Canadians were killed by their doctor.
In 2023, 100,000+ babies were killed in their mother's womb in Canada.

Human life is protected under God’s law.
It is not within our power to create it, nor is it within our prerogative to take it away.
Life is a stewardship from our Creator.
Therefore...
1. Abortion is murder.
2. MAiD (Canada's euphemism for assisted-suicide) is murder.

In the Calgary area? Join us next Saturday for our Marriage Conference!
Fairview Baptist Church@FBC_CGY
On February 21, Fairview Baptist Church will host a conference on God's design for biblical marriage. Whether you're newly married, preparing for marriage, single, or have been together for decades, this event offers teaching grounded in Scripture with practical applications.

God's law is a blessing to the righteous but a burden to evil men.
It is freedom for the innocent but a fetter for the wicked.
Many want freedom to sin, God's people want freedom from sin.
This is key to true liberty.

8 churches were excommunicated from Fellowship Pacific—and thus, from the national Fellowship. They were removed for maintaining that churches reserve the roles of elder/pastor and the task of preaching to men.
Here are my thoughts on what went wrong:

@PhillipBeebe_ Here's the background: cbmw.org/2025/10/22/kee…
It's gotten worse since then...

@tim__stephens Wait, churches are being removed from FEB for this reason alone?
Has FEB made a statement that restricting the office of pastor to biblically qualified men is grounds for removal?
Sorry, I haven't been following FEB news, but I'd like to get up to speed.
English
Yesterday, 8 churches in BC were removed from the Fellowship for maintaining that the pastoral office is reserved for biblically qualified men.
They have been unjustly treated, but the Lord sees and He will vindicate the righteous.
Our church is likely to be next.
English
@ClintHumfrey I did as well. Our congregation was surprised that it has come to this.
English
@tim__stephens Prayed for these churches in our service today.
English
@RightHereEh Yes, we're working for remaining to our historic convictions. For that we are labeled divisive and narrow.
English
@tim__stephens The direction the Fellowship has been travelling has been readily apparent for many years.
Has Fairview has remained in because you thought there might be course correction?
Church history suggests that recovery is unlikely.
English
@Protestia Open now. Here's the background that I wrote on a few months ago. cbmw.org/2025/10/22/kee…
Things have progressed since then with 8 churches being removed who were signatories of this motion to keep the FEB complementarian.
English
@tim__stephens Can you open your DM's and tell us more about this, for a story?
English
Since when did complementarianism include women pastors, women preachers, and women elders… as long as the senior pastor is a man?
Make it make sense.

@parnel11231 @DavidJPba “All the cultural amenities that we enjoy are ours because we live in a land that has felt the impact of Christian civilization” — Ernest Manning, Premier of Alberta, 1943-1968.
English
@tim__stephens @DavidJPba We are a secular country. Religion and politics don't mix. There are too many hypocrites on both sides especially among nationalist fundamental Christians in places like AB where everyone is brainwashed to begin with.

Our event tomorrow night has caused no small stir. Many are calling for our charitable status to be revoked since we are wading into discussions of public policy that affect our province.
