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
A man reading the Bible with deep concentration in a vast field

That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.

Psalms 9:1 – 9:20

  1 To the chief Musician upon Muthlabben, A Psalm of David. I will praise [thee], O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.
  2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High.
  3 When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
  4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; thou satest in the throne judging right.
  5 Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.
  6 O thou enemy, destructions are come to a perpetual end: and thou hast destroyed cities; their memorial is perished with them.
  7 But the Lord shall endure for ever: he hath prepared his throne for judgment.
  8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness.
  9 The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.
  10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
  11 Sing praises to the Lord, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.
  12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them: he forgetteth not the cry of the humble.
  13 Have mercy upon me, O Lord; consider my trouble [which I suffer] of them that hate me, thou that liftest me up from the gates of death:
  14 That I may shew forth all thy praise in the gates of the daughter of Zion: I will rejoice in thy salvation.
  15 The heathen are sunk down in the pit [that] they made: in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
  16 The Lord is known [by] the judgment [which] he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
  17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, [and] all the nations that forget God.
  18 For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall [not] perish for ever.
  19 Arise, O Lord; let not man prevail: let the heathen be judged in thy sight.
  20 Put them in fear, O Lord: [that] the nations may know themselves [to be but] men. Selah.

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.
