“Caesarea Philippi: Overcoming the Gates of Hell”

Dr. David Self
Matthew 16:13-19

Do you ever feel like you’re engaged in spiritual warfare? Sometimes it seems like the imps of hell have singled you out for target practice. You feel a heaviness of Spirit, a feeling of opposition, and a lack of energy.

In this week’s Bible Study, we’ll see Jesus tackling this issue head on. And from His teaching at Caesarea Philippi, we’ll gain spiritual truth and a scriptural promise of victory.

Join us this week as we meet in the lower level of the 1010 Lamar Building. Lunch service begins at 11:30a and our speaker starts promptly at 12:10p and ends promptly at 12:40p. The Bar-b-q lunch buffet is only $8 or you can bring a lunch.

History

From 1927 to 1977, Houston's First Baptist Church met at Fannin and Lamar in downtown Houston. In the early 1970s, a popular event was a noon Bible study led by Bro. John Bisagno in the church's Fellowship Hall on Wednesdays.

When the church sold that property and moved to its current location on the Katy Freeway, Deacon Bill Morris negotiated free meeting space in the basement of the Lamar Building so the church could continue the popular Bible study.

Today, HighPoint Bible Study meets on that site, providing downtown workers with physical and spiritual nourishment. It's truly the high point of their week! Everybody is invited—whether you attend HFBC or not!
