THE HOLY BIBLE
The Bible is God’s Word, which is made up of the Old and New Testament. God’s Word is without error and it offers instruction on how we should live, the teachings of Jesus Christ and the prophets.
THE TRINITY
There is one God existing eternally as the Holy Spirit , The Father and Jesus Christ (Son). God is omnipresent (everywhere at the same time), omnipotent (all powerful) and omniscient (all-knowing).
JESUS CHRIST
Jesus Christ is the Son of God who was sent on earth for the forgiveness of man sins. He was sent to the cross, died and rose again. For God so loved the world that He sent his only begotten son, that whosoever believe in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16
MAN & SIN
God created man in his own image and likeness, when Adam fell to sin all men were sinners not by choice. A sin is anything that man does against God.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
SALVATION
Eternal life and the forgiveness of sin is possible if you ask God for forgiveness. To do this one must confess your sins, turn from your sins and believe that Jesus Christ is the only and only Savior. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6
BAPTISM
Through Baptism we identify the coming, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. To do this, believers are fully immersed in water and publicly profess and commit yourself to Christ.
HOLY COMMUNION
Communion is a symbol of Jesus sacrifice on the cross for our sins.
Wen the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. 15 Then He said to them, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God." Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; 18 for I say to you, [c]I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you. Luke 22: 14-20
SECOND COMING
We beleive in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ at His return. Jesus Christ is to return to establish His kingdom and all who believe in him both living and dead will be caught up in meet Him the air to live with Him forever.
And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.” Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. Revelation 22:12-14
