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

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life

1John 1:1 – 1:10

  1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
  2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
  3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
  4 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
  5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
  6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
  7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
  8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
  9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
  10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

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.

Job sits on an ash heap, his body covered in reddish sores, barely covered by a cloth, as three of his friends stand before him, one speaking to him in a desolate, ruined landscape under a stormy sky.

Hear my words, O ye wise men; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge. Job 34:1 – 34:37

A man, resembling Job but with a look of renewed hope and joy, sits on an ash heap in a blossoming desert landscape with a flowing stream. He has his arms outstretched towards a radiant light in the heavens, from which a subtle, benevolent divine face emerges. His faithful dog rests peacefully beside him.
 

He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him:

He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy:

In a desolate, ancient landscape under a cloudy sky, Job, an elderly man with reddish sores on his bare chest, sits on an ash heap, facing three older, bearded men who are seated respectfully on the ground. A younger man, Elihu, stands slightly apart, looking modest and thoughtful, his hands clasped, as if preparing to speak.
