A Believing Church

We believe that Jesus is God's only begotten Son. 

 

“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.” 

John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬
 

We believe that Jesus commissioned us to make disciples. 

 

“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, 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.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
 

We believe that the Gospel is the Good News of Jesus Christ. We believe that He was born of a virgin, died on the cross for our sins, and was raised on the third day for our salvation. 

 

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” 

Romans‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NIV‬‬
 

 

“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.” 

Romans‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭NIV‬‬

 

 

“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith,

we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,” 

Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬
 

 

“You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”  

Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬
 

 

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭23‬ ‭NIV‬‬

 

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” 

Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭38‬-‭39‬ ‭NIV 

 

 

“For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,” I Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

 

 

We believe that Jesus is Lord, and whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. 

 

“But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 

Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭8‬-‭13‬ ‭NIV‬‬

 

We believe we have been saved by God's grace; not because of something we have done. God's unmerited favor, which is far greater than we deserve, saved us so we may serve Him. 

 

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” 

Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬-‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
