Not merely for worship...though that is true, not merely for fellowship...though that is important, and certainyly not for ourselves...God has give us a mission in the world...we exist for others
From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible tells a story of God who is on a mission, reconciling the world to Himself. All of history is moving toward God's plan to redeem humanity through the work of Jesus Christ - The gospel - Good-news! We summarize this story with four terms: Creation, Fall, Rescue and Restoration.
In CREATION, God created all things perfect and good because He is perfect and good.
In the FALL, Adam & Eve rebelled against God through disobedience (sin). It brought a curse upon all creation, distorting it from its original design & left humanity depraved in sin. The ultimate consequence for this rebellion is death - eternal separation from a loving God. Can anything be done? Is there any hope?
A RESCUE was promised, foretold & revealed in partial ways throughout the Old Testament scriptures that God would one day rescue mankind from the presence, power & punishment of sin through a Savior. This plan was fully realized & perfected in the life, death & resurection of Jesus Christ.
A RESTORATION, God remaking all things new (just like it was in creation) is promised for all who put their faith in Jesus alone for rescue from sin - with no more pain, suffering, sickness, sin or death. This is the good news of Jesus - this is the Gospel - this God’s story of Redemption.
All who embrace this good news, God will save from sin & transform their lives for His glory and the benefit of others. We believe God's heart is infinitely loving and His desire is to offer His gift-of-life in His Son to anyone - no matter who you are, where you have come from or what you have done.
