Photo of Founding Pastor Ike T. Sidebottom

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 6

Dispensational Distinctions

Paul's final journey in the book of Acts led him to Rome, where we see the final turning point in his ministry. Paul pronounced a final spiritual blindness on the Jews and turned to the Gentiles. From his prison house in Rome, he wrote several letters in which he fully revealed the truth of the mystery concerning the Church, the Body of Christ. While the Church began sometime in the middle part of the book of Acts, the full unveiling of the truth of it did not occur till after Acts 28.

Scripture References: Ephesians 3:1-9, Acts 28:17-28, 1 Corinthians 9:19-23
