Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the laborers
are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send
forth laborers into his harvest.

A special message from our pastors

2. We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the
holy inspired absolute Word of God, infallible, immutable, and inerrant
in their original manuscripts and to be the final authority in all matters
of faith and life as interpreted by the Holy Spirit for every believer.
3. We believe that Salvation comes by God’s grace through faith
alone and not of any works, traditions, or rituals men might perform.
That if any sinner repents, publicly professes Jesus Christ as personal
Savior and Lord, believing that He was the Son of God, died on a cross
for our sins, was buried and resurrected, they will be saved.
4. We believe that two ordinances, neither of which are necessary for
salvation, observed in obedience to our Lord by all believers until
Christ’s return are: baptism by the immersion in water, and the Lord’s
Supper.
5. We believe that the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us in
the glory and person of Jesus Christ full of grace and absolute truth,
begotten of the Father by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and
was truly man without ceasing to be fully God.
6. In God’s image we believe man was created, and when he sinned
against God in the Garden of Eden incurred the penalty of sin, which is
both physical and spiritual death, eternally separated from God and
incapable of reconciliation by any self means or merit.
7. We believe that Jesus Christ lived a sinless and perfect life
pleasing the Father and that He died for our sins on a cross, was
buried, and that He was bodily resurrected and now sits at the right
hand of the Father as sole mediator between God and man.
8. We believe that as true believers in Jesus Christ we are called to
be diligent ambassadors to His holy name and upon His foundation
alone we are to fully represent Him as Savior and Lord according to
the Scriptures. That the church as a body of believers is to be set
apart from the world and is to be a light in darkness and salt of the
earth.
9. As a body of baptized believers, we believe in the Great
Commission, our Gospel mandate, which is to evangelize, baptize,
and make disciples throughout all nations, tongues, and kindred, in
the name of Jesus Christ.
10. We believe in the biblical existence of Satan, originator of sin and
unequal to Jesus Christ, and that he is the adversarial dignitary who
acts as tempter and accuser of God’s work and in human affairs. That
he was created by God for God’s purposes and was made perfect until
iniquity was found in him. That he will be bound during the millennial
reign of Jesus Christ on earth and will ultimately be cast into the Lake
of Fire forever and ever.
11. We believe in the pre-tribulation rapture of the church and in the
pre-millennial visible, bodily return of Jesus Christ to the earth to
rescue Israel at Armageddon and to establish His millennial kingdom,
reigning over the earth from David’s throne in Jerusalem, and that His
redeemed (the church) will reign with Him in resurrected bodies.
12. We believe in the eternal conscience reward for the saved, and the
eternal conscious punishment of those who reject Christ and His plan
for salvation.
