"If you
believe what you like in the gospels,
and
reject what you don't like,
it is
not the gospel you believe, but yourself."
Augustine of Hippo
- We Believe The
Bible is the Holy Scripture of God. Written by Men, as they were
guided by the Holy Spirit. Inerrant and Infallible in it's
original form, it is in all ways the Absolute
Final Authority in all matters concerning the revelation of God.
- We Believe in the
Absolute Lordship and Deity of Jesus Christ, The Only Begotten Son of God,
in whom the fullness of the Godhead now rests bodily, and Who is
now seated at the right hand of God the Father, forever
interceding on behalf of his Brothers and Sisters ,and through the
Holy Spirit, continuing to bring The Lost into a saving
relationship with Himself.
Jesus Christ, born of a virgin, in accord with the scriptures, led
a life of sinless perfection that only God himself could live. He suffered
death, purchased our redemption from sin,
and restored the relationship between God and Man, forever
splitting their veil of separation.
- We Believe through One
Man, Adam, the bondage of sin and death entered the world. And through another Man,
Jesus Christ, freedom reigns, through the gift of Eternal Life.
Jesus Christ paid once and for All the wages of sin, which is
death. Sin leads to death, and ultimately, eternal separation from
God and everlasting torment. The sacrifice of the Blood of Jesus
Christ displayed his unlimited
Mercy and Grace, so that Whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord
will be saved.
- We Believe in the
Tri-Union of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit
- and concede that it only begs you "not strive to
understand in order to believe, but believe that you may
understand", and that it is a message so clearly taught throughout
scripture, that no honest and sincere Christian could deny this
fundamental tenent of the Christian Faith, were they to humble
themselves before God.
- We Believe in The
Church of True Believers as the instrument that God has chosen to
gather His own unto Himself, and that as True Believers, we should
not "forsake the gathering together as is the custom of some", and
that we should view The Church as Jesus does, a Beautiful Bride
preparing for that wondrous day when we will be present with Him
for all eternity.
- We Believe in the
total depravity of man in his fallen state, that All have sinned
and fallen short of the glory of God, that there is none
righteous, not one.
- We Believe as well in
total forgiveness, once man has received Jesus Christ as his Lord
and Savior, and that through Jesus Christ alone can man be saved,
and even then, that salvation was a gift of God - indeed, the gift
from the Father to the Son.
- We Believe in
much, much more...Stay Tuned!
