What
We Believe
We
Believe that the Holy Bible, the Word of God, was written
by men supernaturally inspired by God and is the record of God's
revelation of Himself to man. It is the basis of our faith and
practice as believers.
We
Believe that the Godhead exists eternally in three persons,
the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and these three are one
God, forming the Holy Trinity.
We
Believe that Christ is the eternal Son of God. In His incarnation
as Jesus Christ, He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born
of the Virgin Mary. In His death on the cross, He made provision
for the redemption of men from sins.
We
Believe that the Holy Spirit is a Person, is God and possesses
all the divine attributes. He dwells in all believers, baptizes
and seals all believers at the moment of their salvation, and
fills them in response to confession of sins and yieldedness.
He empowers and anoints believers for ministry and service.
We
Believe that man was created by the special act of God, in
His own image, and is the crowning work of His creation. The sacredness
of human personality is evident in that God created man in His
own image and in that Christ died for man; therefore, every man
possesses dignity and is worthy of respect and Christian love.
We
Believe that the church is the Body of Christ, a local body
of baptized believers in Christ, who are associated by covenant
in the faith and fellowship of the Gospel and seek to extend the
Gospel to the ends of the earth.
We
Believe that the Lord's Day is the first day of the week,
Sunday. This day commemorates the resurrection of Christ from
the dead and should be a day of worship and spiritual devotion.
We
Believe that all spiritual gifts are given to the Body of
Christ for the perfecting of the saints and the building of the
Body of Christ.

God's
Plan For Rededication
| Step
1: |
GOD'S
PURPOSE:
Christ wants to be Lord of all your life.
"And why call ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things
which I say?" (Luke 6:46)
|
| Step
2: |
OUR
NEED:
Personal sin hinders fellowship with God..
"But your iniquities have separated between you and
your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he
will not hear." (Luke 6:46) |
| Step
3: |
GOD'S
PROVISION:
God is ready to forgive and restore you (I John 1:9)
The
blood of Jesus will cover sins.
"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light,
we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus
Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin" (I John
1:7)
|
| Step
4: |
OUR
RESPONSE:
Confess your sins (Proverbs 28:13).
Recommit yourself to the lordship of Jesus Christ (Acts
2:36) Yield yourself daily to Jesus Christ and experience
the fullness of His life in you (Romans 6:12-13; Galatians
2:20). The heart of the matter is lordship! We are reminded
that Jesus said, "If any man will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow
me." (Luke 9:23). We must so commit ourselves to
Him that reaffirmation will have lasting significance.

to live for You the rest of my life. |
