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
  2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

Colossians 3:1 – 3:25

  1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
  2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
  3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
  4 When Christ, [who is] our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
  5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
  6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
  7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
  8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
  9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
  10 And have put on the new [man], which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
  11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond [nor] free: but Christ [is] all, and in all.
  12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
  13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also [do] ye.
  14 And above all these things [put on] charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
  15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
  16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
  17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
  18 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
  19 Husbands, love [your] wives, and be not bitter against them.
  20 Children, obey [your] parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
  21 Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest they be discouraged.
  22 Servants, obey in all things [your] masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
  23 And whatsoever ye do, do [it] heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
  24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
  25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

 

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.
