This collection of Bible messages on a variety of subjects were preached by our founding pastor, Ike T. Sidebottom, at College Avenue Church (original name of Grace Bible Church) in Fort Worth, TX back in the 1960s. Brother Ike, as he was affectionately known, was one of the foremost preachers and teachers of the Word of God, though he is best remembered by his true humility and love. He spoke with a slow, deep voice as he preached the gospel of God’s grace and taught the Word “rightly divided.” Sadly, these are the only recordings we have of Brother Ike in MP3 format.

Israel, Gentiles, the Church - Part 3

Dispensational Distinctions

While God dealt with Israel throughout most of the Old Testament, what happened when Jesus came into the world (beginning of the New Testament Scriptures)? Jesus' entrance into the world did not mark the beginning of a new covenant; He lived His entire life under the old covenant of law. His public ministry was limited to "the lost sheep of the house of Israel" to confirm the promises made to the fathers of that nation (Rom. 15:8). The only times He did minister to Gentiles, they had to come to Him understanding their place as outsiders. During this gospels period, the truth concerning the Church, the Body of Christ, remained a mystery, hidden in God.
