Forsake Not the Assembly - Early Baptists v. the Universal Church: Universal Church Controversy

A message showing that faithful membership in a local church is both EXPECTED by the Lord Jesus of every believer and is also CRUCIAL to every believer's spiritual walk. Yet many today justify their rejection of the local church based on the relatively modern heresy that they are members of a universal invisible church. The message then begins delving into Christian history to show how ancient Baptists rejected such a notion of ANY universal church - visible or invisible.

This sermon was preached by Pastor Sam Adams on 9-1-2019 at Independence Baptist Church in Ocala, Florida. Bible text: Hebrews
10:19
-25, Revelation 3:1-4.
