We believe that there IS a heavenly eternal home waiting for us and we will live with our Savior for an eternity.
We believe there is only one God, the God of Heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ the Son of God.
We believe that we shall have no other gods before Him.
(Exodus 20:3) “You shall have no other gods before Me.”
(I Timothy 2:5-6) “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all people.”
(John 3:16) “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
We believe that salvation is only found in Jesus Christ and in belief in His name and receiving Him as personal Lord and Savior.
(Acts 4:12) “Salvation is found in no-one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
Jesus is the only way to God.
(John 14:6 ) “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
(John 3:3) “I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”
(I John 1:9) “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
(John 1:12) “Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.”
(Romans 10:10) “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.”
The Bible is the Word of God.
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God spoken into the hearts of man. The Bible being the Word of God is alive and as we speak it as God spoke it, it will come alive in our hearts and encourage us and give us faith and strength.
(John 1:1-5) “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
(II Timothy 3:16) “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
(Hebrews 4:12) “For the Word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
(Romans 4:17) “As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before Him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.”
(Romans 12:2) “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
We are children of God, saved by the blood of Jesus and believe that all who call on the name of the Lord will be saved.
(Romans 10:13) “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Religions are man’s way of interpreting the Bible, but there is NO mention of Baptists, Catholics, Protestants, Lutherans, Pentecostals etc. in the Bible, only Christians and that is what we are. We choose a certain Church to go to but we are Christians and children of the Most High God.
(Acts 11:26) “The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.”
May God bless you as you diligently study His Word and draw closer to Him through your faith. Never give up on Him and continue daily to allow Him to grow your faith through the trials He allows. Strive to learn more about Him and to love Him more and in doing this, His love will overflow from within you to the world; “streams of living water will flow from within them,” and life example, truly living out what we believe is one of the best testimonies we can ever have to show the world in need who Jesus really is; Love Personified.
May God Bless you!
