THE GOSPEL MESSAGE IN ONE SENTENCE God became a man, Jesus Christ and He died on the cross to pay for all our sins and was raised bodily from the dead to guarantee the gift of eternal life and heaven to all who believe that Christ alone provides salvation and eternal life through faith in Him alone. 
OUR OPERATING PRINCIPLES: 
UNITY IN ESSENTIALS. 
LIBERTY IN NON-ESSENTIALS. 
CHARITY IN ALL THINGS. 
OUR 3 ESSENTIAL DOGMAS: 
1) Jesus Christ is the eternal God, the only Savior and the sole source of eternal life. Jesus is the ETERNAL GOD manifest in the flesh as the "SON OF GOD". 
2) We receive the gift of eternal life by grace ALONE, through faith ALONE, in Christ ALONE. NO WORKS ARE REQUIRED to get saved, stay saved or prove one’s salvation. When Jesus died on the cross, He paid for the sins of the WHOLE world. When Jesus rose from the dead, He proved He has power over life and death. Jesus offers LIFE EVERLASTING as a free gift to EVERYONE. We rely entirely on JESUS CHRIST for our salvation and eternal life. 
3) Our salvation is eternally secure. Eternal life means eternal security and we cannot lose it for ANY reason. Once we have believed...our salvation is irrevocable by God or by us. 
LET’S LISTEN AND LEARN FROME EACH OTHER…
James 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath Proverbs 18:13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him. 1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear (gentleness and respect) 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 
“Remember why we debate. We have nothing to lose but the errors we hold. Who but a stubborn fool would hold on to errors once they have been exposed? When an honestly mistaken man learns the truth, he will either no longer be mistaken or he will cease to be honest” Unknown 
CHATROOM RULES: This is a live, online program but it is still “CHURCH”. All conduct should be the same as a local church meeting. BE NICE AND KIND TO EACH OTHER, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE DISAGREE. If you are rude then we will issue a warning, then a timeout, then you will be REMOVED. TROLLS and FALSE TEACHERS (those who challenge our CORE DOCTRINES) will be stopped and REMOVED immediately. If you disagree with our CORE DOCTRINES, we can arrange a time and place to discuss it. THIS IS NOT THE TIME AND PLACE. If you persist then you will be REMOVED.
