The Pastor's Blog

By Jacob Reaume

We Have Hope and Encouragement: You’re Invited!

By Jacob Reaume | January 29, 2021 |
Tagged: covid-19, hope

Dear Fellow Christians and Neighbours:

Many are in despair.  Darkness has come upon the land.  People are suicidal.  They’re turning to drugs and alcohol to cope.  Businesses are destroyed, leaving entrepreneurs and employees wondering how to survive.  Families are fractured.  We are required to isolate during the darkest and coldest time of the year.  This is all to save us from a disease that 97.93% of Canadians have not tested positive for and more than 99.9467% of Canadians have not died from since it arrived on our shores over a year ago.

I offer you the eternal hope of the love of God in Jesus Christ.  Christ died on the cross, so that if you repent of your sins and put your faith in Him He will forgive all your transgressions and grant you abundant eternal life.  If there ever was a time for the church to be open, it is now.

Sadly, we are presently under the heavy hand of the Province of Ontario.  (Our legal team has provided an important update here.)  So this Sunday, we must resort to hosting a parking lot service.  Officials will likely be watching, and they will not permit us to exit our vehicles.  But I promise you that you will hear a message of hope — an ancient message passed down to us by the hands of martyrs and faithful Christians who’ve come before us — the message of a loving Christ Who will forgive us our sins and relieve our guilt.  He offers all peoples and persons an abundant joy filled eternal life.   You are warmly invited to attend.  Service will start at 10:30 AM, Sunday (DV).  Please arrive early.  I plan to preach outside.  It’s not church, but it will be uplifting.  And we could all use some uplifting right now.

Sincerely,

 

Jacob B. Reaume

Sr. Pastor of Trinity Bible Chapel

 

P.S.  Like the apostles and the prophets, we have some legal troubles at the present.  If you’d like, please consider donating to our legal fund here.

  • Paedobaptism and Presumed Faith

    By Jacob Reaume | April 4, 2025

    INTRODUCTION Was circumcision the sign and seal of Abraham’s faith or the sign and seal of the faith of all those who received circumcision? Some have argued that it was the sign of the faith of all those who received it, meaning that faith is presumed for all infants who received circumcision in the OldRead more

  • A Primer on Paedo vs. Credo Baptism

    By Jacob Reaume | January 31, 2025

    Introduction Among Calvinists, there is a perennial debate over who is the proper recipient of baptism. Paedobaptists assert that baptism is for all members of a household in which at least one of the parents demonstrates signs of regeneration. That includes newborn infants, because such are members of the household. Credobaptists assert that baptism isRead more

    THE SITUATION American President Donald Trump is in the Canadian media for the second time in as many weeks, each time for telling jokes at the expense of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Three weeks ago, Prime Minister Trudeau hastened to Trump’s Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago, seemingly panicked over Trump’s public threat of tariffs on all CanadianRead more

  • The Disappeared Riemenschneider Podcast

    By Jacob Reaume | November 12, 2024

    A few weeks ago, a podcast featuring Tobias Riemenschneider critiquing Joel Webbon disappeared almost as soon as it appeared. Let me explain the context a little, at the very real risk of your eyes disinterestedly glazing over. If you do lose focus and nod off, just skip to the next paragraph where I rise aboveRead more

  • Jumbled Ramblings on Hitler, Churchill, WWII, and Hatred

    By Jacob Reaume | September 18, 2024

    About two weeks ago, Tucker Carlson released an interview with Darryl Cooper, questioning, among other things, the consensus narrative surrounding WWII and Winston Churchill. I listened with curiosity, albeit admittedly somewhat distractedly: it was the podcast de jour during my morning 6 o’clock workout on leg day. But I did listen. I left the podcastRead more
