At East Clemson Baptist Church, we a

re a family of believers who gather together to study and learn from God’s Word to mature as His Disciples and encourage one another.

*On the first Wednesday evening of each month we join together as family for a “potluck” meal and fellowship.

*We provide opportunity for all ages to be involved in Bible Study, community outreaches and missions. This commitment to the Bible and a desire for a strong evangelical Baptist witness in this community were the motivating reasons for the establishment of this church in 1966. We are a Southern Baptist Church and we accept the Baptist Faith and Message as an accurate confession of our faith. But, in summary, this church stands firm upon these historic Christian beliefs:

The Bible is the inspired error-free Word of God and is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and atoned for our sins by His sacrificial substitutionary death on the cross. He arose bodily from the dead, ascended to heaven and will return to earth to resurrect the dead and execute judgement. We receive forgiveness of sin and eternal life by personally repenting of sin and turning in faith to Jesus Christ as Lord. We express that commitment to Him through baptism by immersion and growth in discipleship in the context of a local New Testament Church. Christ taught that true Christian love is the mark of those who follow Him. And, East Clemson Baptist Church promotes that attitude within our membership and to the world around us as well.

A Love for Others
We are to love others as God loves us.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
The Greatest Gift
13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
>>>Phileo could be defined as brotherly love, and unfortunately, we often treat it as an inferior love compared to agape love.
Phileo is the word used for the Father's love for Jesus (John 5:20).
>>>Paul used the word agape, which denotes a love that is unconditional. It's a love that seeks the highest good of the other person. It's a love that is willing to lay aside any personal comfort or benefits for the sake of the one loved.
>>>Saying we love Jesus isn't enough. It must be seen in our actions. Our love for Jesus is seen in how we love others, and that love is seen in the way we minister and serve.
>>>Without love, gifts like tongues, prophecy, and knowledge are pointless.
>>>We are to be just like Jesus (1 Cor. 11:1; Eph. 5:1).
>>>"We love because He first loved us: (1John 4:19).
>>>So, what remains? Faith, Hope, and Love. Faith is needed because it's our faith in Christ that brings us to salvation. Hope is tied to our faith, in that it is our trust-filled and confident expectation of what awaits us in Christ. But love sits over and above it all. Faith and hope are gifts God gives us, but love is His very nature. "God is love" (1 John 4:16). Therefore, "the greatest of these is love" (1 Cor. 13:13).

A Way to Serve
God has empowered and equipped us to serve His church.
1 Corinthians 12:12-24
Unity and Diversity in One Body
12 For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. 13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink [a]into one Spirit. 14 For in fact the body is not one member but many.
15 If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body? 16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,” is it therefore not of the body? 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? 18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased. 19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
20 But now indeed there are many members, yet one body. 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary. 23 And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty, 24 but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,
>>>A relationship with Christ and the presence of His Holy Spirit go hand in hand. "If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him" (Romans 8:9).
>>>Because the Holy Spirit lives in you and lives in me, there is a unity and spiritual reality that makes the church unique from other community groups or social clubs.
>>>The church founded on the gospel of Jesus Christ is different from any other collection of people. Consider what the church might look like to an outsider.
>>>Paul pointed to the diversity in the Corinthian church in terms of Jews and Greeks. slaves and free. While our diversity may not be identified by those same descriptors, we are still a unique collection!
>>>Paul stressed again that we are many parts, but we make up one body-and we are to work in total cooperation with one another.
>>>Every believer is an essential part of the body of Christ. Yet if we feel ourselves unnecessary or unwanted and choose to sit on the sidelines, we negatively impact the body of Christ.
>>>Consider how your whole body reacts when one part of you hurts. You are needed in the church, and the church functions as God desires when we discover, not our independence, but our dependence upon one another.

An Outward Focus
Bring glory to God by seeking the welfare of others.
1 Corinthians 10:23-33
All to the Glory of God
23 All things are lawful [a]for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things [b]edify. 24 Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being.
25 Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience’ sake; 26 for “the earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness.”
27 If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience’ sake. 28 But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience’ sake; [c]for “the earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness.” 29 “Conscience,” I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience? 30 But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?
31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 32 Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God, 33 just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
***I belong to Christ. Jesus said, "If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me" (Luke9:23).
***Do nothing out of selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility consider others as more important than yourselves. Everyone should look not to his own interest, but rather to the interests of others (Phil.2:3-4).
***We can't say our actions bring glory to God if they are self-centered and failing to benefit others. On the other hand, those actions that support and encourage others in their own walk toward salvation and their walk with Christ definitely honor Jesus. Pointing others to Jesus always honors Him.
