God who died for our sins and arose from the
dead.
1 Corinthians 15:1-8
...that the Bible is the complete inspired Word
of God and is without error.
2 Timothy 3:16
...that every person has worth as a creation of
God, but that all have sinned and fall short of
the glory of God.

...that forgiveness of sins and the promise of
eternal life are available to those who trust
Christ as Savior and Lord.
John 3:16
...that those accepting Christ should repent of
sin, confess their faith, and be baptized by
immersion into Him.
Romans 10:9, Acts
2:38
. . . that lost people matter to God, and
therefore our main mission is to seek and save
the lost, connecting them in a relationship
with God through Jesus Christ.
Luke 19:9-10; Matthew 28:19-20
...that the Church is the Body of Christ on
earth, is empowered by the Holy Spirit, and
exists to reach out to lost people and to
build up those who are in Christ.
Ephesians 4:1-16
… that exalting (praising) our God in worship is
to be top priority for every Christian.
Psalm 96:2,9
… that every Christian should earnestly seek to
grow and mature spiritually.

…that every believer should seek to love and
serve others.
