..the Great Commission of Jesus (Matt. 28:19-20.) We believe the main business
of the church is to (a) win men to saving faith and personal commitment to Christ,
(b) to baptize them, as an indication of their faith, and as a public confession
of Christ before men, and (c) to teach them the things of God seeking to bring
every person to full maturity in Christ, and to make soul-winners of all those
who have been saved.
3)
we rely heavily upon the presence and power of God's spirit in our services,
believing that only as He directs, enlightens, instructs, empowers, and brings
conviction can the work of Christ be effectively done.
4)
in the power of God, who answers prayers for the salvation of the lost, the
healing of the sick, the help of the weak, and the effectiveness of the church.
5)
... the heart-felt cry of men today is not for the motion and commotion of organized
religion, but for a spiritual ministry in which lives are transformed, needs
are met, faith grows, and inner peace and joy, become the daily possession of
the Christian.
6)
... the Christian life must be balanced, as growth is experienced in every area
(physical, intellectual, moral, social, and spiritual.) Moreover, we attempt
to make provision for balanced development through our church programs.
7)
... we make provision for babies and nursery age children during our Sunday
School and both worship services in order to free the parents from distractions
as they participate.
