Jesus_is_the_way_pic.jpgWhat We Believe               

We believe that there is only one God, who has created all things for His glory and honor. This one God has manifested Himself to mankind as the Father in creation, the Son in redemption, and the Holy Ghost indwelling.

We believe that it pleased God that all the fullness of the Godhead would dwell in his son, Jesus Christ.

We believe that Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless human life, willingly took upon Himself all of our sins, died and rose again bodily, and is our advocate and mediator to the Father.

We believe he will return to receive his Bride, His church, holy and spotless to live eternally with him.

We believe that apart from Jesus Christ, all people are spiritually lost and, because of sin, deserve the judgment of God. However, God gives salvation and eternal life to anyone who trusts in Jesus Christ and in His sacrifice on his or her behalf.

We believe salvation cannot be earned through personal goodness or human effort; instead, it is a gift that must be received by humble repentance and faith in Christ, baptism in Jesus name and being filled with the Holy Ghost.

We believe faith without works is dead, and that a person who has been born again will want to help their neighbor, to love one another as Christ loved us. We will be rewarded for the things done in this body, whether they be good or whether they be evil.

We believe in water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ as a public profession of a person’s faith in Christ just as the early apostles did.

We believe that one must be born again of Spirit and Water to see and to enter the Kingdom of God.

We believe that the Holy Ghost is essential to salvation and convicts the world of sin and draws people to Christ.

We believe that it is through the power of the Holy Ghost that once you are born again you are to live a holy sanctified life, free of sin. Be ye Holy as I am holy sayeth the Lord.

We believe that the Holy Bible is God’s unique and written revelation to people. It is the inspired, infallible Word of God, and the supreme and final authority on all matters upon which it teaches. No other writings are vested with such divine authority. We prefer to use the King James Version

We believe in the spiritual gifts God has given to His church, including healings, miracles, wisdom, knowledge, tongues and interpretation of tongues, discernment of spirits, prophecy and faith.

We believe the spiritual gifts are given by the Holy Ghost, severally as He wills, to the body of Christ and should be used for the edifying of the body and the perfecting of the saints.

We believe that those who have not repented and accepted Jesus Christ as their savior will face the final judgment and they will be eternally lost, left to suffer in a literal place we know as "hell" with the other unbelievers and backsliders.

We believe that the church is the body of Christ of which He is the head. The church is also a local congregation of believers who gather on a regular basis to worship, pray, preach, teach, encourage, and to systematically do good. The Church has a responsibility to use its God given gifts to fulfill the great commission of reaching the lost and helping them to grow into mature, devoted followers of Christ.

 
What Must I Do To Be Saved? 

It must be agreed by all those who believe the Bible that the world's greatest question is, "What must I do to be saved?" or "What shall I do, Lord?" or "Men and brethren, what shall we do?" (Acts 22:10; 2:37; 9:6.) This question has to do with the soul of man and eternal destiny. The soul of one man in one side of the balances would outweigh the whole world in the other side! Jesus said, "What is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matt. 16:26.) The soul is the skyscraper to stand through the eternal ages, while the body is no more than the scaffolding and ladders round about, and very temporary in nature. Once the soul is lost eternally, it will be too late to do anything about our great question.

Question Analyzed
But let us analyze our question and show that it is exceedingly simple. First of all there are two parts to the question. "What must I do" refers to the sinner's part, and "to be saved" refers to God's part of the plan. In other words the sinner must believe and put his faith into obedience in order to be saved of God, and on God's terms. But let us further analyze the question. "What" - of all things possible to be done, just what must one do to be saved? "What must" - it is not what may one do. Jesus said, "It shall be told thee what thou must do." (Acts 9:6.) Again, it is "What must I" - it is not what must God, Christ, or the Holy Spirit do. All heaven has already moved and done its part, and it is our move next. It is "What must I do?" It is not how must I feel or what must I imagine, or what must be done to me, but "What must I do?" it is not what must I do to blot out my own sins apart from God but what must I do "to be saved."

Jailer's Question Answered
When the jailer asked "What must I do to be saved?" (Acts 16:30), he knew little or nothing about Christ and had no faith in Him. However, the earthquake of the occasion and the miracle in evidence confirmed the fact that Paul and Silas were servants of God. In answer to his question they began at the very first and said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house." This was a sort of blanket proposition meaning that he would have to obey Christ and trust in Him for salvation. They then preached Christ unto him so he could believe, for faith comes by hearing the word. (Acts 16:32; Romans 10:17.) He evidently believed and repented for he took them and tried to undo the harm done, and washed their stripes. He also was baptized the same hour of the night - at midnight. (Acts 16:25, 33.) He was then saved by Christ who had said in the commission, "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved." He rejoiced after his baptism. He did not "hit the saw dust trail" to have his sins prayed away at an altar. He also was saved by obedient faith and not by faith only. (Heb. 5:9.)

Answered On Pentecost
When many asked our great question on Pentecost saying, "What shall we do?" (Acts 2:37), unlike the jailer, they had just heard about Christ and been called upon to believe in Him as "Lord and Christ" (Acts 2:37.) They had been pricked in their hearts by the truth which they had heard pointing out their guilt in the murder of Christ. (Acts 2:37.) Since they were already believers, but had not put their faith into obedience, they were simply told what to do by faith in order to be saved. The apostle said, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." (Acts 2:38.) They were to do this "for the remission of sins" for which Christ had shed his blood. (Matt. 26:28.) When the service was over, there were no seekers turned away with the explanation that they should keep on seeking in prayer until they should find. But the record says, "They then that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls." (Acts 2:41.) The last verse says, "And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." (Acts 2:47.) In no case were any said to be saved who had not heard the gospel and obeyed it. Furthermore, the Lord added all of them to the same church, the church of Christ which he had said he would build. (Matt. 16:18; Acts 2:47; Eph. 1:22, 23; 5:23; 2:16; 4:4.) They were simply Christians and wore no human religious name. (Acts 11:26; 1 Pet. 4:16; James 2:7.) They subscribed to no human creed and were members of no denominational church. They were united in the one body as Christ had prayed that they should be. (John 17:20, 21; Eph. 4:3.)

If you have never accepted this precious gift from Jesus Christ, please don’t hesitate to call upon Him right now, repenting and turning from all sin in your life. Don’t hold on to any of the pieces of your life….give them all to Jesus and let Him mold and make you into a vessel of honor. Let Him make The changes in your life by submitting to His Spirit and obeying what He tells you. After you have repented then follow thru with the rest of His conditions…be baptized in the precious name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sin, study the Word, seek the face of Jesus and receive the Baptism of the Holy Ghost with evidence of speaking in tongues and live a Holy, sanctified life.

Won’t you ask Jesus to be your Savior right now? He loves you!
