The Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is fully God and has always existed. In order to restore fallen mankind, He died on the cross as a substitute for the sins of every person. He was raised from the dead by the supernatural power of God and is now in heaven, praying for us all. Mankind was created good and upright, but by willful choice, ignored God's instructions and chose to engage in what was wrong and evil. As a result mankind fell from innocence and goodness and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.
Salvation is deliverance from spiritual death and habits caused by sin.
God provides salvation for all who believe and accept His free offer of forgiveness. Mankind's only hope of redemption from this sinful state is through the blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, which was accomplished when Jesus died on the cross. We practice two religious sacraments, called ordinances. Water baptism , by immersion, for new Christians is how we publicly state to family and friends that we are going to live a Biblically ordered life. Holy Communion, a time for remembering all that Jesus Christ has done for us, is shared once a month in our Sunday Celebration Services.
