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. – Romans 1:16
We are not ashamed of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
What We Believe
We believe that God is real, is alive today, and is a relevant as He ever was.
We believe that there is one true, holy God, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The Holy Bible – the 66 books of the Old Testament and New Testament – is the infallible Word of God.
Man is a sinner, and sin has Separated him from God!
You may think you are a good person but being good is not enough! Every man has sinned and there is none that is righteous before God!
“For there is not a just man upon Earth, that does good and sins not” ( Eccl. 7:20 ).
“For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God” ( Romans 3:23 ).
“For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it” ( James 2:10 )
God Loves You!
God loves you so much that He made a way for you, through the shed blood of His Son so that you might be able to spend eternity with Him.
“For God so loved the world that he gave His only Begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have Everlasting Life” ( John 3:16 ).
Jesus Christ is the Only Remedy for Sin!
Jesus Christ is the only remedy for sin. We can not be good enough to get into heaven, nor can our good works get us there.
There was no other way for God to erase the effect of sin except by blood. The shedding of Christ’s blood indicated that the penalty for sin had been paid; a perfect sinless life had been sacrificed for the lives of all who have sinned.
“…Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins” ( Hebrews 9:22 )
“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God…” ( I Peter 3:18 )
“Neither is there Salvation in any other: for there is none other name under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” ( Acts 4:12 ).
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'” ( John 14:6 )
You Must Receive Jesus Christ as Your Lord and Savior
To be saved, a man must confess that Jesus is Lord, while acknowledging in his heart that Christ must have full rule over his life. This confession of Christ as Lord assumes that it is Christ who will work and fulfill His own righteousness within man, as man is unable to attain righteousness of his own accord.
“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.” ( Romans 10:9 )
Jesus calls this experience the “new birth.” He told Nicodemus: “…Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God” ( John 3:3 ).
We invite you now to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. “But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His Name” ( John. 1:12 ).
Pray this Prayer and Mean it with all Your Heart
“Dear Heavenly Father, I realize that I am a sinner and have broken your laws. I understand that my sin has separated me from you. I am sorry and I ask you to forgive me. I accept the fact that Your Son Jesus Christ died for me, was resurrected, and is alive today and hears my prayers. I now open my heart’s door and invite Jesus in to become my Lord and my Savior. I give Him control and ask that He would rule and reign in my heart so that His perfect will would be accomplished in my life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”
