Our aim is to act as platform to bring the foundational tenets of the faith into the spotlight so that souls are refreshed and invigorated by the brilliance of the Triune God. We want to be the catalyst the Lord is pleased to use to spark a Modern Reformation in the urban context…suburban context…and anywhere else the opportunity presents itself. We attempt to do this by taking the precious revelatory Holy Writ of God (feeling a little poetic, by this I mean the Bible) and presenting it in a multi-angular fashion using various media to make it plain.

Major announcement on FFF for August coming SOON! Stay tuned…. (and don’t forget FFF for July 23….it’ll be here soon!).
This month we’re considering the topic of forgiveness. Prayerfully the Lord will be pleased to both challenge and transform us all as we meditate on this fundamental Christian attitude. Dealing with topic forgiveness, Pastor John MacArthur has said the following:
Listen, God is perfectly holy. He is thrice holy…holy, holy, holy. He is of purer eyes than to behold evil, cannot look upon iniquity. He cannot tolerate sin. He despises sin. He hates sin. And while He is forgiving there will be an end to His patience and He will not endure sin forever. There will come a time of judgment and justice. He says that all the way back in Exodus 34 and verse 7. At the same time that God is forgiving, there is an end to His forgiveness because ultimately His holiness will take over where there is impenitence. He is perfectly holy and ultimate, ultimately does require a just punishment for sin…either from the sinner or from a substitute for the sinner, namely His Son the Lord Jesus Christ. To say that is to say that God is holy and sets a holy standard, so much so that ultimately sinners unforgiven will be damned to an eternal hell of punishment. There’s no question about the extent of God’s holiness. And that in itself makes His forgiveness all the more astonishing. God then who is most holy, God who is most supremely offended forgives.
We who are unholy shall we not forgive? What is it, some kind of God complex people have who won’t forgive? Indeed it is. You have an elevated opinion of yourself who will not forgive. You have exalted yourself to a standard higher than God.
I pray this quote resonants with you throughout the week and compels you to join us this Friday.
Revival 2K10: Worshiping God through Preaching, Praise and Prayer
Revival 2K10 will be a time of worship and renewal as God’s people gather to worship Him through preaching, prayer and praise. We will also pray for His blessing and power for genuine revival in our churches and communities.
Speakers Doug Logan of Epiphany Fellowship of Philadelphia, Kevin Smith of Pinelands Presbyterian Church of Miami and Thurman Williams of New Song Community Church in Baltimore will exhort God’s people to worship God, walk before God and witness of the gospel of Jesus Christ as an end in and of itself.
How would you define marriage?
When do you know you’re ready to get married?
How do you prepare for marriage?
How do you sustain or strengthen a marriage?
What issues are primarily the cause of failed marriages?
Are their defined roles in marriage?
If you’ve ever thought about these questions, or if you’re looking for some answers to these questions, come and join us this month for Fourth Friday Fundamentals, as we discuss the topic of “Marriage” from a Biblical perspective.
We’ll begin worship promptly at 8pm. Our hosts for the night will be Evangel of the Christian Hip Hop group Christcentric, and brother Kerry Gilliard, aka G.R.A.C.E. Preecha. Our speaker for the evening is brother Derek Pulliam.
Come on out and enjoy a time of worship, edification and fellowship.
Come join us this Friday, February 26th, as we deal with the topic of “The Sufficiency of Scripture”
Our speaker for the evening is Pastor Iggy Choi.
If you’ve never been to FFF before, this would be a perfect time for you to ‘jump in’.

1. Be sure to check the links and resources we’ve provided in the lefthand column over here. We’ve added a few sites and resources.
2. Become a fan of us on Facebook! Follow us on Twitter! Scroll partially down the page and links to our Facebook, Twitter and YouTube accounts are there! Click, subscribe and follow!
3. We’re way overdue for uploading the remaining 2009 sermons. FFF had a plethora of challenges in 2009 – technical (as in technology not working) and facility (as in, we had to host FFF a few different places before moving back home). Through it all, however, the Lord has been gracious to this ministry.
We’d like to publicly thank the folks at Trinity Reformed Baptist Church (Pastor Steve Hartland) and Manna Bible Baptist Church (Pastor Gaines) for not only giving us a location, but for supporting us to the point that it seemed like we’d been hosting FFF there all along. Special thanks to the staff at Manna Bible for printing up free literature for the event. May the Lord bless your congregation greatly for your kindness toward us.
Okay, that’s it for the shoutouts. Here’s the sermons.
4. We did say 4 didn’t we ? Be sure to check out our sister site’s discussion board over at Life | Doctrine | Music. Join, discuss and contribute to the growing community of believers who love truth.
We’ll have info up for the upcoming February FFF very shortly. And yes, we ARE back at Believers’ Chapel!
Endeavoring to bring Baltimore, Christ-centered rhymes and sound, biblical, theological teaching under one roof at one time, Fourth Friday Fundamentals serves as the conduit for such to take place. Its a time for worship, celebration, edification, conviction, correction, fellowship and maturation.

…as we get into and unpack the need to diligently keep close accounts on yourself and the revealed Inscripturated Truth! We are hopeful that this session will evoke sincere examination in both belief and behavior!
soli deo gloria!!
(in case you missed it) THEME: WATCH YOUR LIFE AND DOCTRINE
FEATURED ARTIST: PROTEGE (this cat gets animated like a cartoon! join us and be prepared for an energetic set! come through and bring a friend or 2)
While we’re waiting for audio from this year to be gathered (the FFF crew had many trials with equipment failure this year), I decided to do a little sharing for those of you visiting the site. I wrote this and posted it back in 07, but giving it a listen, I found myself being a bit convicted by it. I think it’s a good ‘share’ opportunity for everyone. It’s posted afresh at our sister site, Life | Doctrine | Music and at its’ original location at Theologically Correct dot Com.
Thinking Biblically Commentary – January 4, 2007
K. Joel Gilliard
Every year on December 31, great festivals and celebrations around the world are held to ring out the old year and bring in the new year. In fact, starting backwards from December 26th, news broadcasters begin to reflect on past events of the year, who died, who got married and whatever the big news stories of the year that there were.
Many people use this time of year to do their own reflection on the events of the past year in their personal lives. Many make promises to improve themselves in the coming year and as we well know, these things have a tendency not to last.
Many have come to think of New Year’s resolutions as a cliché for ‘Heh. Let’s see how long that lasts.’ People make grandiose claims and promises only to break them before the end of the month (usually within the first 5-15 days of the month).
Now let’s think for a moment. Biblically, if you will.
