Knowing Christ as Lord, Sharing His Message & Serving In His Name

"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him." - Hebrews 11:6

God in Three Persons - God the Father. God the Son. God the Holy Spirit. Three in One. The Trinity. Beyond our comprehension; accepted by faith. "Jesus answered, " I am the, way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you really know Me, you know my Father as well. From now on, you do know Him and have seen Him."- John 14:6
Missions - As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to compassionately serve others, bear one another's burdens, take care of the widow and orphan, and spread the gospel (good news) of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. "But prove yourselves doers of the Word and not merely hearers who delude themselves." James 1:22 "The Great Commandment: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and to love your neighbor as yourself. " Matthew 22:37

Salvation -Salvation belongs to the Lord; Thy blessing be upon Thy people!" Psalms 3:8 Salvation from the penalty of our sin (eternal death and separation from God) is the free gift of God by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. "For the wages of sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23
Grace - Grace. Unmerited favor. All have sinned (messed up) and fall short of the glory and perfection of the One and Only Holy Lord God. But God loved us so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to earth to be the perfect sacrifice to make atonement (pay the penalty) for our sin. Those who believe in Jesus Christ receive the righteousness of God. "...For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God..." Romans 3:23
"For God so loved the world that He gave His One and Only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16
Family - The Baptist Faith and Message 2000 XVIII The Family:
"Marriage is the uniting of one man and one woman in covenant commitment for a lifetime. It is God's unique gift to reveal the union between Christ and His church and to provide for mand and the woman in marriage the framework for intimate companionship, the channel of sexual expression according to biblical standards, and the means for procreation of the human race." "But God demonstrates His love for us in this; While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8
