wholesome love and genuine care I receive from
each member of our First Baptist "family"
means so much. Each week is a spiritual uplift."

About God
–
God is the creator and ruler of the universe who exists
in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
About
The Bible
–
The Bible is God’s inspired word and is our supreme
and final authority in faith and life.
About
Jesus Christ
–
Jesus Christ is the Son of God and lived a sinless life
in human flesh here on earth. He died on the cross, was
buried and after three days rose from the dead. He ascended
into Heaven and will one day return to earth to reign. Jesus
offered Himself as a sacrifice to atone for our sins.
About
The Holy Spirit
–
At the moment of salvation, the Holy Spirit indwells every
believer to provide guidance and power to live a Godly life.
About
Man
–
Although human beings are created in the image of God, all
have sinned and can only escape spiritual death by accepting
Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior.
About
The Church
–
The Church is comprised of all those who acknowledge Jesus
as Lord and Savior. Its purpose is to fulfill the Great
Commission as stated in Matthew 28:19-20. We also believe
that the Scripture commands believers to gather together
to devote themselves to worship, prayer, the teaching of
the Word of God, the observance of baptism and the Lord’s
Supper, fellowship, and service to one another and to the
world through the development and use of the gifts of the
Spirit. Wherever God’s people meet regularly there
is a local expression of the Church. Under the watch care
of a Pastor and other supportive leadership the members
of a local church are to work together in love and unity,
intent on glorifying Christ.
About
Eternity
–
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the
unjust, the everlasting joy of the saved and the everlasting
conscious punishment of the lost.
