. . . . . . . . . . .Statement of Faith
1. We believe the Bible is inspired and empowered by God, infallible and authoritative.
2. We believe in one eternal God who exists as three separate persons; the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life as He walked among men, demonstrated the authority and power of God in works and speech, died on the cross, rose from the dead on the third day, and is now seated at the right hand of God having accomplished all that is necessary for man's salvation.
4. We believe it is essential for man to repent of sin and by faith receive the finished work of Christ by confessing Him as Lord with his mouth and believing in his heart resulting in regeneration by the Holy Spirit.
5. We believe the Holy Spirit is continuing the work He started at Pentecost empowering believers to live a godly life and continue in all the works of Jesus.
6. We believe in the imminent return of Jesus and that those who have believed in Him will be resurrected to a heavenly dwelling in an incorruptible body, and those who do not believe will join Satan and his host in everlasting punishment.
7. We believe the true Church is composed of all born-again believers in Christ, regardless of denominational affiliation.
8. We believe all born-again believers have been commissioned to share the complete Gospel to all the world.
(NOTE: It is difficult to tell all we believe in 8 sentences, but we make this statement of faith available to those who ask for one so they will know we are Bible-believing Christians.)

The Good News . . . . .
Ephesians 2:8 - "For by grace are you saved
through faith; and that not of yourselves; it
is the gift of God."
Romans
10:9-10 - "If you confess with your mouth
that Jesus is Lord, and shall believe in your
heart that God raised him from the dead, you
shall be saved. For with the heart man believes
into righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto salvation."
Romans
8:35-39 - "Who shall separate us from the
love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress,
or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or
peril, or sword? As it is written, for your
sake we are killed all the day long; we are
accounted as sheep for the slaughter. No, in
all these things we are more than conquerors
through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded,
that neither death nor life, nor angels nor
principalities nor powers, nor present nor things
to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other
creature shall be able to separate us from the
love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
God
didn't send His Son to pay for the forgiveness
of your sin, and then decide He is going to
require you to make installment payments. He
only requires you to believe that the FULL PAYMENT
was done over 2000 years ago....then you'll
stop trying to make the installments on something
you could never pay for anyway.
The
Good News is that He wants you debt free.....in
every aspect of your life!
God
is NOT mad at you!!....No matter what!!
He
loves you!!.....and he promised to get you through
it, if you'll let Him!!
