A prayer for our visitors:
Our prayer for you is that the eyes of your understanding be opened so that you may know what is the hope of God's Calling. (Ephesians 1:18a) and that the mind that was in Christ Jesus, be in you. (Philippians 2:5) Also, that you be a vessel of honor, sanctified, and fit for the Master's use and prepared for every good work. (II Timothy 2:21).
Father God, We now come to you on the behalf of every man, woman, and child that visits this site. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ, that the spirit of idolatry be removed from their minds. We ask that their spiritual eyes be opened to the dynamic power of your Holy Word, and that they will allow their minds to become renewed through your Word. We pray that they desire to be sanctified by your word and by the power of the Holy Spirit, so that they can be a vessel of honor for you. We pray that they will avail themselves to be used in every good work.
We thank you now father for granting this request in the name of your precious son Jesus Christ, Amen.

The Following is our Statement of Faith, a list of our Core values and a Prayer for our site visitors.
Statement of Faith
We believe in the plenary-verbal inspiration of the accepted canon of the Scriptures as originally given and that they are infallibly and uniquely authoritative and free from error of any sort in all matters with which they deal, including scientific and historical as well as moral and theological.(I Timothy 3 :16; I Corinthians 2:13)
• We believe in the Eternal Godhead who has revealed Himself as ONE God existing in THREE persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit; distinguishable but indivisible. (Matt. 28:19; IICor. 13:14)
• We believe in the creation, test and fall of man as recorded in Genesis; his total spiritual depravity and inability to attain Divine righteousness through his own efforts. (Rom. 3:11; 5:12,18)
• We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of men, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, very God and very man. (Lk. 1:26-35; John 1:18; Isaiah 7:14; 9:6)
• We believe Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again the third day, and personally appeared to His disciples. (I Cor. 15:1-8; Rom. 4:25)
• We believe in the bodily ascension of Jesus to heaven, His exaltation, and personal, literal and bodily coming again the second time for the Church. (John 14:2-3; I Thess. 4:13-18)
• We believe in the salvation of sinners by grace, through repentance and faith in the perfect and sufficient work of the cross of Calvary by which we obtain remission and forgiveness of sins. (Eph. 2:8-9; Heb. 9:12,22; Rom. 5:11)
• We believe in water baptism by immersion. (Matt. 28:19; Acts 2:34-38; 10:44-48; 19:1-6)
• We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a distinct aspect of the Christian foundational experience. (Acts 2:1-4; 8:14-17; 10:44-46; 19:1-6)
• We believe in the operation of the gifts of the Spirit as enumerated in I Corinthians 12-14, as manifested in the Early Church.
• We believe in the Spirit-filled life, a life of separation from the world and perfecting of holiness in the fear of God as an expression of Christian faith. (Eph. 5:18; II Cor. 6:14, 7:1)
• We believe in the healing of the body by God, or Divine healing in its varied aspects as practiced in the Early Church. (Acts 4:24-31; Rom. 8:11; I Cor. 12:9; James 5:14-15)
• We believe in the Table of the Lord, commonly called Communion or the Lord's Supper, for believers. (I Cor. 11:23-32)
• We believe in the reality and personality of satan and the eternal judgment of satan and his angels. (Matt. 25:41; Rev. 20:10-15)
• We believe in eternal life for believers (John 5:24; 3:16) and eternal punishment for unbelievers. (Mk. 9:43-50; II Thess. 1:8-9; Rev. 20:10-15)
