our purpose

The church has two main purposes: to seek and save those who are lost, and to present every man perfect in Christ.

Conversion
The Bible teaches a rational plan of salvation. The scriptures do not teach us to look for lights, signs, or to listen for strange voices. A person who hears the gospel, believes in Christ Jesus, repents of his sins, confesses Christ, and is baptized into Christ is a Christian. He has met Christ where Christ promised to meet him. Then, he must continue to be faithful unto death, and he will receive the crown of life Rev. 2:10 .

Baptism
Christ commanded the apostles to baptize (Matt. 28:19 ). All through the book of Acts it is shown that whenever men came to Christ they were baptized (Acts 2:38 ; Acts 8:12-38 ; Acts 9:18 ; Acts 10:48 ; Acts 16:15-33 ; Acts 19:5 ). Also baptism in the early church was by immersion in water, only of those old enough to have believed and repented. Baptism unites us with the death and resurrection of Jesus (Rom. 6:3-5 ), and it is the occasion of the new birth (John 3:5 ).

The Lord
We honor Jesus Christ as Lord.  The Bible teaches that love for Christ means following His commands.  We proclaim that He was born of a virgin, lived a sinnless life, died on a cross for our sins, and was physically broght back to life through the power of God.  For these reasons we believe He was the Son of God, is coming agian at the end of time, and all men should proclaim Him as Lord.
