Church fliers in your mailbox

Welcome to No Compromise Radio, a ministry coming to you from Bethlehem Bible Church in West Boylston.

No Compromise Radio is a program dedicated to the ongoing proclamation of Jesus Christ, based on

the theme in Galatians 2, verse 5, where the Apostle Paul said, �But we did not yield in subjection to them for

even an hour, so that the truth of the gospel would remain with you.

In short, if you like smooth, watered -down words to make you simply feel good, this show isn�t for

you.

By purpose, we are first biblical, but we can also be controversial.

Stay tuned for the next 25 minutes as we�re called by the Divine Trumpet to summon the troops for the honor and

glory of her King.

Here�s our host, Pastor Mike Abendroth.

For the last six years, we�ve

been technically No Compromise Radio is under No Comedian.

Now, what does that mean?

What�s the difference?

I don�t think you�ll find any difference because I�m still the host, Tuesday Guy is still the Tuesday Guy,

Aaron�s still Aaron.

And the list goes on.

But technically, formally, while No Comedian reports to the

church, or is underneath the elders of the church, I should say, technically, there�s a difference.

So it won�t mean much to you, except I got to switch the different music.

It�s about time to get a different intro after 1 ,800 episodes.

Terry from Ohio, faithful listener, I don�t know how faithful he is, but he�s a faithful listener.

He gave me the thing that came to his door.

He sent it in.

You know, you get these flyers, we�re a church in the neighborhood, please check us out.

This is very popular, especially with these multi -church campus deals.

It says on the one side with an exclamation point, �Do not open this unless.

And then it�s got a little deal here, at thechurch .tv, the church

online, and you flip it over and it says, �Bring your family to participate in the launch

of our new Northwood campus, Sunday, October 4th, 11am.

� It�s a little dated, but the idea is good for the introduction of No Compromise Radio today.

How do you promote your church?

What would you say about your church if you wanted the community to show up?

Come and experience life transformation, teaching from God�s word, music that will change your life and encourage your heart, and

loving, serving people who genuinely care about you.

I�m not the best editor, but that seems like it�s a long sentence.

Would we call that a run -on sentence?

Come and experience life transformation.

That�s at the top of the list.

Do I need a transformed life at the top of the list, or might I need a

declaration of not guilty, no condemnation?

Would that be at the top of my list, or life transformation?

Could you have said life transformation and still not be justified?

It says, �Come and experience life transformation, teaching from God�s word.

� How can I argue with that?

That�s good.

I like that.

Here�s a good one.

Music that will change your life.

I don�t know.

I used to be into music so much that I�ve kind of dialed back a little bit.

Spotify, I listen to once in a while, and

music that will change your life.

That was life -changing music.

I think WVNE 760 used to be on that station.

I like them.

They were very good to No Compromise Radio.

Not many people would carry No Compromise Radio, but they would for a price.

But even then, I think it�s called life -changing radio,

but it�s because the word of God is preached.

That�s the idea.

Here, this is music that will change your life.

I would assume that�s loud music.

I would assume that�s a band.

I would assume it�s kind of coffeehouse music where you can�t hear the congregation sing.

This is a different campus.

I haven�t opened it up yet.

This is all live radio.

I want you to know this is unscripted.

This is as it happens.

This is reality.

Usually, these multi -campus churches, they�re all under one leadership, and you beam in the

most bestest pastors preaching.

I did that on purpose.

The guy that seems to you that�s the most gifted as an orator, charismatic, not in theology,

but in style and presentation.

Then, he is the pastor for the other campus, but once in a while, he shows up.

That�s kind of nice of him.

I appreciate that.

Now, I don�t know if this is the case here, but it�s another campus.

It�s very big to have these campuses.

It says, of course, on the front, �Do not open this unless ,� and then you open it, it says, �You want.

� Okay, so it�s all about you.

Remember back in the old days, an army of one, and you play to the people and their selfishness

to get them to come into the army instead of, �We�re all in this for a bigger purpose,

outside of ourselves.

� Here�s a church.

If you open this, if you want a better marriage, responsible and well -balanced

children, you can�t make this up, a healthy lifestyle, enough

money and then some, a life that is bigger than life.

So we have gone from the pablum, seeker

-sensitive, you know, here�s your best life now type of thing.

Actually, it seems like we�re going into word faith and the whole money deal.

You want.

That�s what�s in red letters.

You want.

Now, of course, I have to give disclaimers.

If you don�t know about No Compromise Radio, well, then.

Better marriages, okay, is that what we�re after?

Well -balanced children, I�d like responsible children, it�s all going to, excuse

me, I�ve never sneezed on the radio show in 1800 shows, I don�t think, I�m going to sneeze again because I�m allergic to this man

-centered nastiness.

This is making me very, very allergic.

All of that, it says, and so much more, at no cost to you except your time and effort to do the following.

See back.

What�s the back?

Bring your family to participate.

That�s all you have to do so you show one time, you get a better marriage, you have well -balanced

children, healthy lifestyle, enough money and then some, and a life that�s bigger than life.

For children, they have SIA, that�s Spiritual Intelligence Agency, teaching children what Jesus said about life.

For students, exchange student life, learn how to live the life God designed them for.

Do we end sentences with preposition?

For adults, life talk, instructional, interactive, and group gatherings.

I thought I was going to say group think.

About life, marriage, finance, and health.

And when I read this, I think, seeker -sensitive, now they�ve thrown in the money and more so I think of word

faith and selfishness, which is seeker -sensitive stuff.

Here�s how we appeal to you.

Instead of saying what does God require and we will do it and if nobody shows up, nobody shows up.

But when I see the theme of living the life

God designed for them, and marriage, finance, health, I�m

shocked that nothing is said here about sex.

That�s a way to get the millennial people in at least for two weeks before they realize the

gig is up.

It�s all about law, or as we say here in New England, �lar.

� It�s lar.

And we�re all about law.

How does that work?

I�m not against the law, obviously, but the Bible has much to say positively about the law.

Now, it�s effects are God uses positively, but there�s a negative slant, if you will, in terms of

showing my sin and making me run to the

gospel of Jesus Christ.

But when I�m looking at this thing, we�re going to talk a little bit more about law in a second, because you know that�s what I like to talk about,

and gospel.

There is the word God, right?

Live the life God designed for them, so I�m happy for that.

There is nothing here about Jesus

at thechurch .tv, at thechurch .tv.

God�s word, it does say.

And after that, the Church on the Strayer, that is quite

the name for the church, Church on the Strayer, the Straying Church, because when you go away from the Bible,

you stray.

And when you focus on law, on what�s our church all about, a living the life God called us to live, I mean, how are you going to

measure up to that?

How are you going to do?

I think you need some good news.

I think you need gospel talk.

I think you need talk about who Jesus is and what he has accomplished and how he will

return.

Money, a lifestyle, well -balanced children.

What if I�d offer you this?

A come -to -Bethlehem Bible church.

You don�t really know what you want.

How would that sell?

Do not open this unless you need to think biblically instead

of from a self -centered, man�s -centered, snotty -nosed,

kid�s -centered viewpoint, selfish, that is.

If you want to.
