Our Mission


To Win this world for Christ, not by what we say but by what we do.

To live a life before God that is worthy of our calling; and not

conform to the world's desires as we did when we lived in ignorance.

But, just as He who called you is holy, be holy!

(1 Pet 1:14-5)

This will be our witness and our channel for God to bless us!

 

What We Believe

Our Statement of Faith

  • We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons, (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit). All 3 are equal and work in perfect unison in their roles and relationship to one another. Gen 1:1-3; John 1:1-4; 10-14; 1 John 5:6-7

  • We believe the Bible to be the divinely inspired, infallible, authoritative word of God. It was written by man, but stirred and motivated in the hearts of men by God himself. 2 Tim 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21; Heb 1:1; Rom 16:25-26

  • We believe in the Deity of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His Omnipotent miracles, His Omniscience, in His substitutionary and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His giving of the Holy Ghost, which empowers the believer to live a victorious life, and in His personal return in power and glory very soon. Luke 1:26-30; Matt 28:18; Acts 4:12; Rom 5:10; 1 John 2:2; John 4:24

  • We believe that the salvation of lost and sinful people is by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ alone; and we can do nothing in and of ourselves to merit heaven or God’s favor. Man is given free will to choose how he/she desires to live and will have to answer for every choice they make in their lifetime. Eph 2:1, 8-9; Rom 3:23; 6:23; 14:10-12; Heb 9:28; 1 Cor 10:23
  • We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. He helps us to understand truth, and is the guarantee of every believer in the inheritance of heaven and (God infused) power manifested while still here on earth It is with this Spirit, believers are still being revealed new spiritual gifts as the Spirit’s divide as He will.
    Eph 1:13-4; 4:30; 1 John 4:13; John 16:7-13, 1 Cor 12:7-12

  • We believe just as it has been appointed to man to die, there will be a resurrection of the saved and lost. The saved unto the resurrection of life (heaven) and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (hell). Jesus will return himself and judge all men according to what they’ve done. Heb 9:27;
    1 Cor 15:24-28; 2 Cor 5:10; Rom 2:16; 2 Cor 5:10

  • We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ Jesus. Rom 12:5; 1 Cor 12:12; Eph 4:25

  • We believe baptism doesn’t save you, but is an outward sign of an inward change. It helps you identify symbolically with the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is done out of obedience to Jesus and shouldn’t be overlooked as unimportant. Rom 6:4-6; Eph 2:8-9; Matt 3:13-17

 

  • The Lord’s Supper is a fellowship of sorts for believers to remember the Last Supper, Jesus had with his apostles. This meal is a symbolic of the body and blood of Christ which he would shed for all mankind. Every time we participate in this meal we are to do this in remembrance of Him. Matt 26:26-29, 1 Cor 11:23-34
