Oilfield Workers Sharing Christ Around the World

"Our fellowship is with our Father and His Son Jesus Christ" 1 John 1:3
Grow Your Relationship
With God

The Oilfield Christian Fellowship Bible Ministry is a multi-faceted outreach ministry dedicated to get the Word of God to men and women of the Oil Patch.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” John 3:16

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters.

We have partnered with Faith by Hearing, an organization committed to reaching the nations with the Word of God in audio.

FREE WILL

By Mike Chaffin

And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the river, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15

          I like the Mounds and Almond Joy commercial jingle, “Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t.” We have the power to choose because we have free will.    

However, free will is a double-edged sword and the church has debated this topic for centuries. The Bible teaches it is a gift from God. He created us with the ability to choose. We choose daily what to wear, eat, and what to do.

The deeper choices in life involve our relationship with Christ and eternity itself. READ MORE
