What Kind of a Church is This?
This is a congregation of sinners "saved by grace". We range the
spectrum from "superior" to "failing" in our faith, spiritually, personal
witness, and stewardship of life. We are a fellowship of the
imperfect growing, we trust, from one level of maturity up to the next,
and never content with any life of attainment. We teach the unity of
Christians comes through common devotion and obedience to the
Lord Jesus Christ. The New Testament, the record of God's
self-revelation in His Son, is our only rule of discipline, doctrine, and
devotion. We lay no claim to being the only Christians, but we are
happy to be Christians "only". We try to remind each other frequently
of the evils of sectarianism, exclusivism, and pharisaism.
This is Christ's church. It is not a "Disciple church" nor is it an
"independent church". We are not chained, fettered, bridled,
governed, or muzzled by any party of agency. We rejoice in our
Christian status as free men and women. We are free to love our
enemies, our antagonists, lampooning liberals, and cantankerous
conservatives. This church is dismayed by the division which keeps
brothers split and the world lost. And we repent for our part in that
shameful strangulation and recrucifixion of the Lord Jesus.
All who accept Jesus Christ and obey Him will find here an open
heart, an open Bible, an open Communion table, an open baptistry:
pacifists, pietists, seekers, doubters, capitalists, debtors, laborers,
professionals, and other sinners.
By God's grace, this is a free church - a church of Christ.
God's Plan of Salvation:
God's Plant of Salvation is recorded in the Bible, and answers the
question, WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?
You must BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ: John 3:16; Acts 16:31;
Heb. 11:6; Mark 16: 15,16
You must REPENT of your sins: Luke 15: 3-5; 15:7; Acts 2:38;
17:30,31. What is repentance? Romans 2:4; II Cor. 7:10; Luke 15:
17-20.
You must CONFESS your faith in Jesus Christ: Matt. 10:32,33; Acts
8:36,37; Romans 10:9
You must be BAPTIZED (immersed): Matt. 28: 18-20, Mark 16:16;
John 3:5; Acts 2:38; Acts 8:36-39; Acts 16:33; Acts 22:16; Romans
6:3-6; Col. 2:12; Gal. 3:17; I Peter 3:21; Ephesians 4:5.
You must be FAITHFUL until death. Then the Lord will take you to
heaven where you shall dwell with Him forever and ever. Matt 24:13;
I Cor. 15:58; Acts 2:42; II Peter 1:5-12; Revelation 2:10.
