THOUGHT for TODAY

I am always surprised at those who play fast and loose with the truth. Many are prone to pick and choose which truth (falsehood) they will subscribe to. If it is such that it fits their world view or personal opinion, they will accept it.

Of course, truth is what it is. It is unchangeable, absolute; were it not so, it would not be 'truth'. It does not change because one chooses not to accept it. You can believe that Abraham Lincoln was the first President, but that does not change the truth that it was George Washington! GDL

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14 :6

My Statement of Faith

We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, and that they only constitute the Divine rule of Christian faith and practice.

We believe that there is only one God, who is infinitely perfect, the Creator, Preserver, and Governor of all things, and who is the only proper object of religious worship.

We believe that there are three persons in the Godhead - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, undivided in essence and co-equal in power and glory.

We believe that in the person of Jesus Christ the Divine and human natures are united, so that He is truly and properly God and truly and properly man.

We believe that our first parents were created in a state of innocency, but by their disobedience, they lost their purity and happiness, and that in consequence of their fall, all men have become sinners, totally depraved, and as such are justly exposed to the wrath of God.

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has by His suffering and death made an atonement for the whole world so that whosoever will may be saved.

We believe that repentance toward God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit are necessary to salvation.

We believe that we are justified by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and that he that believeth hath the witness in himself.

We believe that it is the privilege of all believers to be wholly sanctified, and that their whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

We believe in the immortality of the soul, the resurrection of the body, in the general judgement at the end of the world, in the endless punishment of the wicked and in the eternal happiness of the righteous.
