The saving power of the cross does not depend on faith being added to it; its saving power is such that faith flows from it." - J. I. Packer

Our church adheres mainly to London Baptist Confession of 1689 and is NOT Charismatic, Catholic, KJV-only, Arminian, or Amillennial. We do NOT practice or condone speaking in tongues or any of the other New Testament "sign" gifts. We do not teach or believe that salvation comes through water baptism, obeying church creeds, or works of any kind; rather, that it is by God's transforming grace in regeneration through the instrument of faith in the substitutionary work of Christ. All believers are given the indwelling Holy Spirit and baptized into Christ at that time and this baptism is not a separate work of grace that comes later.

For the saint, no time of day is a bad time to pray.

"Jesus didn’t die as a moral influence, showing the power of love. Jesus didn’t die as an example of sacrifice for a noble cause. Jesus didn't die to gain a victory over hostile powers and to liberate humanity and the cosmos from social injustice. Jesus didn’t die because we are victims trapped in unjust circumstances and need to be rescued.

"There’s only one way to understand the death of Christ and that is under the principle of penal substitution. He was our substitute to take the penalty for our sins, to satisfy the justice of God. The New Testament affirms this, doesn’t it? Second Corinthians 5:21, 'God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.' Peter puts it this way, 'He bore in His own body our sins.' And Paul says in Galatians 3, 'He was a curse for us.' That’s the New Testament affirmation of the truth of Isaiah 53. God has then not dealt with us according to our iniquities, He has not dealt with us according to our transgressions. But nor has He overlooked our sins, rather He has punished His Son, the Servant, the Messiah in our place and grace reigns over righteousness." - John MacArthur (From "The Substituted Servant")

"The assurance of the believer is not that God will save him even if he stops believing, but that God will keep him believing – God will sustain you in faith, He will make your hope firm and stable to the end. He will cause you to persevere." - John Piper

“When Christ is preached, the hearts of them which are elect and chosen begin to wax soft and melt at the bounteous mercy of God.” - William Tyndale

"Nothing is more absurd than the fiction that the power of judging Scripture is in the church." - John Calvin

“Election is absolute, not conditional; and, therefore, cannot be overthrown by the sin of the man that is wrapped up therein. No works foreseen to be in us was the cause of God’s choosing us; no sin in us shall frustrate or make election void.” - John Bunyan

"The first lesson a person must learn is that he has neither the will nor the power to save himself. God gives both in regeneration." - W. E. Best
