"Real People, Real God"

 

Who We Are

We are a nondenominational church whose sole purpose is to introduce a Real God, by sharing the Love of Jesus Christ, to Real People, who are lost and hurting.

Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8

​

 

Our Vision

We exist to introduce Real People to the Love of a Real God through His Son Jesus Christ and to teach them to Love like Him.

​

Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, i

n that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

​

1 John 4:19

We love Him because He first loved us.

 

Our Beliefs

​

Bible

The Bible is God’s Word to all people. It was written by man under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. Because it was inspired by God, the Bible is Truth for our daily lives.

Psalm 119:11, 105, 160; Proverbs 30:5; Isaiah 40:8; Romans 15:4; 2 Timothy 3:16,17; 2 Peter 1:20,21

 

Trinity

God exists as One in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Even though each person of the Trinity serves different purposes, they each have equal power and authority.

Matthew 28:19; Mark 1:9-11; John 14:16; 1 John 5:7

 

The Father

God the Father is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He is great, all powerful, all knowing, ever present, unchanging, worthy of our trust, and above all, He is Holy. He is the reason we live and exist. He is always faithful to His people and to His promises.

Genesis 1:1, 27; Leviticus 19:2; Psalms 90:2; John 3:16; Acts 17:28; Romans 3:3,4

 

The Son

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He came to earth and lived a sinless human life. He offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of “whosoever” by dying on a cross as our Savior. He arose from the dead on the third day to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended into Heaven and will return again as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Jesus is the Center of Everything.

Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 3:17; John 1:1-5; John 3:16, 17; John 14:1-3; Acts 1:9-11; Romans 1:3,4; Romans 8:1-3; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 2:5-11; 1 Timothy 2:5,6 

 

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is present in the world to make us aware of our need for Jesus. He also assures us of our relationship with Christ. He gives us power for living and understanding of spiritual truth. The Holy Spirit also convicts us of our sin, He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts and makes us more like Jesus.

Joel 2:28, 29; John 16:7-13; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:1-4; Romans 8:9-11, 14-16, 26,27; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21

 

The Church

The Church is a local community of believers unified through faith in Jesus. It lives by the teachings of Jesus and by obeying all of His commands. The Church seeks to bring the Gospel (Good News) to the world. The Church works together, glorifying Jesus Christ, through love and unity.

Matthew 18:15-20; Acts 2:41-47; Acts 5:11-14; Acts 20:28; 1 Corinthians 7:17; Ephesians 5:22-32;                        1 Peter 5:1-4; Revelation 21:2, 3

 

Salvation

Salvation is a gift from God the Father through the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross. It Cannot be earned. Salvation is the only way to the Father and to the forgiveness of our sins. Salvation is as easy as ABC (Ask, Believe, Confess).

John 1:12; John 3:16; Romans 3:23; Romans 6:23; Galatians 3:26; Ephesians 2:8, 9; Revelation 3:20

 

Man

Man is made in the image of God and is the supreme object of God's creation. Man was created to have fellowship with God. However, man became separated from God through sinful disobedience. As a result, everyone is born with a sinful nature and choose to sin against God. Man cannot regain a right relationship with God through his own efforts. Every one of us is created uniquely and worthy of God’s Love.

Genesis 1:27-30; Psalms 8:3-6; Isaiah 59:1, 2; Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2; Colossians 1:21, 22

 

Water Baptism

Water Baptism is an outward expression of moving from Death to Life. Baptism is a symbol of Christ’s burial and resurrection. Our entrance into the water during baptism identifies us with Christ’s death on the cross, His burial in the tomb, and His resurrection from the dead. It is a symbol of your new life as a Christian. We bury the ‘old life’ and we rise to walk in a ‘new life’.

Matthew 3:11, 16; Acts 2:38; Acts 22:16; Romans 6:4; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Galatians 3:27; Colossians 2:12

 

Eternity

Man was created to live with God forever. We will either live eternally separated from God by sin, or with God, through forgiveness and salvation. When we die, we will either spend eternity in Heaven or Hell. Eternal separation from God happens in Hell. Eternity with God occurs in Heaven.

John 3:16, 36; Romans 6:23; 1 John 2:25; 5:11-13; Revelation 20:15

 

Lord’s Supper

The Lord’s supper, consisting of the elements, bread and the fruit of the vine, is a symbol of our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ, a memorial of His suffering and death, and a prophecy of His second coming.

2 Peter 1:4; 1 Corinthians 11:26

 

Divine Healing

Deliverance from sickness is provided for us in the atonement, and is the privilege of all believers 

Isaiah 53:4; Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 8:16; Matthew 8:17

 

Worship

We believe that worship is an individual and corporate “Thank You” to our God that cannot be silenced. It is a time of intimate conversation to God for how great He truly is. We, as humans, were created to be true worshippers and praise our Loving Savior, Jesus Christ.

Psalms 34:1-8; Psalms 100; 1 Chronicles 16:23-31; Jeremiah 20:1; John 4:21-24; Romans 12:1-2; Revelation 4:8-11; Revelation 14:7
