Behold, I stand at the door, and knock if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Jesus Christ. John 1:17
And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord,
And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

Job 28:1 – 28:28

  1 Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold [where] they fine [it].
  2 Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass [is] molten [out of] the stone.
  3 He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.
  4 The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; [even the waters] forgotten of the foot: they are dried up, they are gone away from men.
  5 [As for] the earth, out of it cometh bread: and under it is turned up as it were fire.
  6 The stones of it [are] the place of sapphires: and it hath dust of gold.
  7 [There is] a path which no fowl knoweth, and which the vulture’s eye hath not seen:
  8 The lion’s whelps have not trodden it, nor the fierce lion passed by it.
  9 He putteth forth his hand upon the rock; he overturneth the mountains by the roots.
  10 He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.
  11 He bindeth the floods from overflowing; and [the thing that is] hid bringeth he forth to light.
  12 But where shall wisdom be found? and where [is] the place of understanding?
  13 Man knoweth not the price thereof; neither is it found in the land of the living.
  14 The depth saith, It [is] not in me: and the sea saith, [It is] not with me.
  15 It cannot be gotten for gold, neither shall silver be weighed [for] the price thereof.
  16 It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
  17 The gold and the crystal cannot equal it: and the exchange of it [shall not be for] jewels of fine gold.
  18 No mention shall be made of coral, or of pearls: for the price of wisdom [is] above rubies.
  19 The topaz of Ethiopia shall not equal it, neither shall it be valued with pure gold.
  20 Whence then cometh wisdom? and where [is] the place of understanding?
  21 Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.
  22 Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.
  23 God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
  24 For he looketh to the ends of the earth, [and] seeth under the whole heaven;
  25 To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.
  26 When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:
  27 Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.
  28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.

STATEMENT OF FAITH
We Believe…

In one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;

In the absolute deity and full humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, God the Son, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His substitutionary and atoning death for all through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory to judge the living and the dead;

In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is empowered to live a holy life, to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ;

In the divine inspiration of all 66 books of the Old and New Testaments as originally given, guaranteeing their infallibility, entire trustworthiness, and supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct;

That all people are sinners and cannot save themselves. Salvation is received as a free gift of God’s grace, apart from works, through repentance and personal faith in the redemptive work of Christ and the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit;

In the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the eternal blessedness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost;

In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ who are thus members of His Body, the Church, whose work is the worship of God, perfecting the saints, and evangelization of the world.
