What We Believe

THE BIBLE

  

· The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is the final authority in life and doctrine. [2 Timothy 3:16-17]

· It was written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and is without error. [2 Peter 1:20-21]

· Its content reveals God’s character, our purpose, and life’s meaning. [Psalms 119:1-7]

· The Bible’s principles are true for all people, for all places, and for all times. [Psalm 119:160]

GOD

  

· God is the Creator and sovereign Ruler of the universe and all that is in it. [Genesis 1:1; Psalms 90:2]

· God eternally exists in three distinct personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three co-exist as the one and only God. [1 Corinthians 8:6; John 1:1, 14; 1 Corinthians 6:11 ;Matthew 28:19 ] 

JESUS CHRIST

  

· The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is the final authority in life and doctrine. [2 Timothy 3:16-17]

· It was written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and is without error. [2 Peter 1:20-21]

· Its content reveals God’s character, our purpose, and life’s meaning. [Psalms 119:1-7]

· The Bible’s principles are true for all people, for all places, and for all times. [Psalm 119:160]

THE HOLY SPIRIT


· The Holy Spirit lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. [1 Corinthians 3:16; Ephesians 1:13-14]

· The Holy Spirit provides the Christian with understanding of spiritual truth and guidance in doing what is right. [Romans 8:9-17; Galatians 5:22-26]ew 28:19 ] 

HUMAN BEINGS

  

· God created all of mankind. Men and women are made in the spiritual image of God. [Genesis 1:27]

· When God created us, He gave us freedom of choice. Unfortunately, we often use our freedom to disobey God, which is sin. This sin separates us from God, placing us in need of a Savior – Jesus Christ. [Isaiah 53:6; Isaiah 59:1-2; Romans 3:23]

SALVATION

  

· Salvation is a free gift of God. It cannot be achieved through good works or self-improvement. The death of Jesus Christ is the only payment for our sins. [John 3:16; Ephesians 2:8-10; Hebrews 9:26-28]

· All people have sinned, experiencing spiritual death, but all people can be saved, bringing about eternal life. [Romans 3:23; Romans 6:23]

· Salvation from sin is available to all who live in Jesus Christ. [Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 8:1,2; John 14:23]

SALVATION - HOW DO I RECEIVE IT?

  

· I need to hear God's word [Romans 10:17] and,

· I need to believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God [John 3:16; Mark 16:16] and, 

· I need to confess Jesus as Lord [Romans 10:9-10] and, 

· I need to repent of my sins [Luke 13:3; Acts 2:38; Acts 3:19; Acts 17:30] and,

· I need to be baptized into Christ Jesus, participating in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ [Romans 6:3-4], to receive the forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. [Acts 2:38; Galatians 3:26-29]

ETERNITY

  

  

· Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence. [Matthew 10:28; Revelation 21:1-4] 

· Being a disciple of Jesus means that I will live faithfully, obeying the words of Jesus Christ, with a hope of living eternally with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit [Ephesians 4:1; 2 Peter 3:11-13; 1 John 2:24-25].

· We will live forever with God in Heaven, a place of ultimate joy, by doing His will, or we can be eternally separated from God in Hell, a place of extreme torment, by refusing to obey Him. [Matthew 7:21; 1 John 5:11-13; Revelation 20:15]

About Us

THE CHURCH

  

· Jesus Christ established His church for the purpose of spreading His message of hope through word and deed, encouraging Christians to persevere in their faith. [Ephesians 4:1-16; Colossians 1:18, 24]

· God adds people of faith to His church at baptism. [Acts 2:41,47]

· The people of God are to love God and to love one another [Matthew 22:37-39] and to serve God and serve people [Ephesians 4:12]

· Each congregation of Christ’s church is designed to be self-governing and ministered to by shepherds, also called shepherds, elders or overseers, who are men that encourage the spiritual growth of each member and guard the church from teachings that are contrary to the God's written word. [1 Timothy 3:1-7; 1 Timothy 5:17; 1 Peter 5:1-4]

About Us

What to expect in our worship service:

 We open with a song and a brief welcome.  The song leader will lead us in a Cappella singing.  Our men will lead prayers regarding our congregation and the special needs of our members.  Our minister or a guest speaker will deliver a sermon.  All are encouraged to follow along in their Bibles as he leads the study.  At the end of the sermon, a song offering the Lord’s invitation for anyone who wants to become a Christian, rededicate their lives to God or ask for prayers for strength in their daily walk with Christ.  The Lord’s Supper will be served to those who have made Jesus the Lord of their lives followed by an opportunity to financially support this congregation by the members of this local body of Christ. 

Serving the community

BENEVOLENCE MINISTRY:  Our Benevolence program helps our members when financial times get tough.  This ministry occasionally assists people who are not members. This decision is made by the deacons on the basis of individual needs. 


FOOD ASSISTANCE:  Each Wednesday we have about thirty bags of food that we give to those in need.  It is on a first come, first serve basis and there are guidelines for how often a family may receive this assistance.  We have a short introduction to the Bible before the bags are handed out 


CLOTHING ASSISTANCE:  We have a Clothing Room where those in need may receive help.  There is a limit to the number of items one may receive due to our supply and the number of recipients.

 

CHILDREN’S HOMES:  Our aim is to send financial, emotional, and spiritual help to Arms of Hope, Sunny Glen, and Foster’s Children’s Homes.  Through this ministry we have provided Christmas gifts to these children, also.
