“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that  whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

God's love for you is so deep that He has given His best in order to have an everlasting relationship with you. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

“...Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day…” (1 Corinthians 15:3–4). 

Our sin separates us from God and requires eternal death (Romans 3:23, 6:23). Jesus died for you, taking your punishment, so you can be forgiven and enjoy a life filled with His love. By personally accepting what Jesus did on the cross, you can be saved. You cannot earn salvation. It is God's unspeakable gift and must be received by faith.  

Jesus said, “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life…” (John 3:36). 

The Bible tells us that forgiveness of sin, adoption into God's family, and the promise of eternal life is only found through Jesus. Do you believe Christ died for your sin, rose again from the grave, and is the only way of salvation? Then, simply call out to Jesus and ask Him to be your Savior. The very moment you ask Christ to save you, He will forgive your sin and give you His gift of eternal life. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).  

The second step in your relationship with Christ is baptism. Baptism does not wash away sin nor make anyone a Christian. It is simply a public demonstration of our faith in Christ. After a person has trusted Christ and been baptized, they are to join with a local church of believers. Connecting with a Bible preaching, Christ centered church helps us to grow and mature in the faith. Bible Baptist Church would love to be a part of your walk of faith. 

Join us as we seek to walk with Christ together.
