OUR FOCUS

To equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Ephesians 4:12-13 (NIV)

The Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, and inerrant Word of God. It is a collection of records, experiences, testimonies, songs, words of wisdom and revelations given by God to man to help us know Him. The Bible is the truth. Not one word will pass away until it has all been fulfilled. Anyone trying to add or detract from scripture is not from God – the Bible is complete. We hide the Word of God in our hearts so we can resist the enemy, be encouraged, live holy lives and be aware of the plans and promises God has made to His people. (2 Peter 1:16-18; Matthew 5:18; Revelation 22:19; Psalm 119:11; Galatians 1:6-9; 2 Timothy 3:16-17)

Jesus is the eternal Son of the Living God. He is the promised Messiah spoken of by the Old Testament prophets. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, and was hated, rejected, and crucified on a cross as the absolute sacrifice for all mankind. He rose from the dead, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and will return as the conquering King to gather His bride, the Church, to Himself to live forever. (Isaiah 52:13-53:12; John 14:6; Philippians 2:6-11; Hebrews 10:11-18; Revelation 19:11-21)

The Holy Spirit has been sent to convict the world concerning sin, righteousness, and judgment. He is our Helper who leads us into all truth. The Holy Spirit regenerates, indwells, and seals every believer in Jesus which is confirmed through the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Baptism in the Holy Spirit is subsequent to salvation. It is essential for a power-filled life which builds up the body of believers and testifies to the world that God is alive and works through His people. This experience is confirmed through the gifts of the Holy Spirit which are all available to the church today. (John 14:12-14, John 16:5-15, Acts 2, Romans 8:5-11, Galatians 5:16-26, 1 Corinthians 12:1-11)

The Church is alive and full of men and women who come from every background with a variety of gifts meant to be used for God’s glory. The Church is the “called-out ones” from the time of Abraham until now. The Church is meant to be a light in darkness to a world that is confused and hurting. As the Bride of Christ, the Church is the example of love, joy, peace, strength and truth. The Church encourages one another, gives generously to those in need, corrects, rebukes, and trains other so the world would recognize Jesus as Savior. (Genesis 12, Matthew 16:16-18; 1 Peter 4:10; 2 Corinthians 4:6; Matthew 28:19-20; 2 Timothy 3:12-17)

The only way to have a relationship with God is through the shed blood of Jesus. Men and women are born slaves to sin and separated from God. God desires a relationship with each of us. There are no works or deeds we can perform that erase or atone for that sin. Accepting the sacrifice of Jesus the Messiah is the only way to be restored to God. Once we have committed our lives to following Jesus, our words, actions, and thoughts should reflect our Savior until the very end. (Colossians 2:13-15; Ephesians 2:4-10, Romans 5:12-14, James 2:14-26, Hebrews 10:26-39, Hebrews 6:4-6)

Worship never ceases. It is expressed through a lifestyle of holiness. As we gather collectively, we seek to worship God in spirit and in truth. Worship is a time for believers to come together in one accord and glorify the King of Kings. This can be done with songs of praise, words of prophecy, a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. This must be done for the edification and the building up of the Church. When we worship the Lord hears our cries and meets us with His presence – in His presence we are changed. (Romans 12:1-2; 1 Corinthians 14:26; John 4:23-24; Psalm 34:17)
