...
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
For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things

Philippians 4:1 – 4:23

  1 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, [my] dearly beloved.
  2 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.
  3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and [with] other my fellowlabourers, whose names [are] in the book of life.
  4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: [and] again I say, Rejoice.
  5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord [is] at hand.
  6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
  7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
  8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
  9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
  10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
  11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, [therewith] to be content.
  12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
  13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
  14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.
  15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.
  16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
  17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
  18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things [which were sent] from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
  19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
  20 Now unto God and our Father [be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.
  21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.
  22 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar’s household.
  23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen. It was written to the Philippians from Rome by Epaphroditus.

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.
