Belief Statement
we believe
the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative, and the inerrant Word
of God. ( II Timothy 3:15-17, II Peter 1:21).
we believe there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. ( Genesis 1:1, Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19, John
10:30).
we believe in the deity of Christ. ( John 10:33); His virgin birth.
(
Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:34-35); His sinless life ( Hebrews 4:15,
7:26); His miracles. ( John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death ( I
Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9); His resurrection ( John 11:25, I
Corinthians 15:4); His ascension to the right hand of the Father ( Mark 16:19);
His personal return to earth in power and glory ( Acts 1:11, Revelation
19:11-13, Revelation 19:14-16).
we believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit
for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of the human nature, and that
all are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ, and
that only by God's grace through faith alone are we saved. ( John 3:16-19; John
5:24, Romans 3:23; Romans 5:8-9, Ephesians 2:8-10, Titus 3:5).
we believe that every man must be born of the Spirit, (born again), if
they are to understand the things of the Spirit. (John 3:3, 1 Cor 2:14)
we believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who
are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are not unto the
resurrection of damnation. ( John 5:28-29).
we believe in the spiritual unity of the believers in our Lord Jesus
Christ. ( Romans 8:9, I Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:26-28).
we believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by Whose indwelling
the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. ( Romans 8:13-14, I Corinthians
3:16; I Corinthians 6:19-20, Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 5:18)
we believe that we as Christians are examples of the love of God in this
world. It is this (agape) love that we desire to possess and without which we
have no right to call ourselves Christians. ( I John 4:16-17).

The Great Commandment
Matthew 22:35-40
35 Then one of them, a
lawyer, asked Him (Jesus) a question, testing
Him, and
saying,
36 "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?"
37 Jesus said to him," 'You shall love the Lord your God with all
your
heart, with all your soul, and with all
your mind.'
38 "This is the first and great commandment.
39 "And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'
40 "On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."
The Great Commission
Matthew 28:18-20
18 And Jesus came and
spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been
given to Me in heaven and on earth.
19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing
them in
the name of the Father and of the
Son and of the Holy Spirit,
20 "teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you;
and lo,
I am with you always, even to the end
of the age." Amen.
