HAVEN OF REST BIBLE CHURCH

formerly  MEAFORD BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH

"Not by works of righteousness which we

have done, but according to his mercy

he saved us"

 

. Christ Alone . Scripture Alone . Faith Alone .

 

“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” – Heb. 10:25

WHO WE ARE
Heb. 10:25

We are born again Bible believers from Meaford, Owen Sound, Thornbury and surrounding areas, gathering in the Lord's name. We hold to the doctrines once delivered to the saints, Jude v3.
We believe that God has preserved His word (Psalms 12:7); and that we have it today (Mark 13:31). God's word contains the only message of hope that can save us from our sins.

The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is God (1 Timothy 3:16); that He was born of a virgin (Isaiah 7:14); that He lived a perfect life (Hebrews 4:15); that He died on the cross to pay for the sins of every person (1John 2:2); and that He rose again bodily from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:4). Jesus is also coming back to receive His people unto himself (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).

If you like, you can contact us, and we will send you more information on how to be saved.

1 John 5:13 says,
"These things have I written unto you .. that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."

WHAT WE BELIEVE

The Bible
We believe the Bible to be the complete Word of God; that the sixty-six books, as originally written, comprising the Old and the New Testaments were verbally inspired by the Spirit of God and are entirely free from error; that the Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice and the true basis of Christian union.

God
We believe in one God, Creator of all, holy, sovereign, eternal, existing in three equal Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Christ
We believe in the absolute and essential deity of Jesus Christ, in His eternal existence with the Father in pre-incarnate glory, in His virgin birth, sinless life, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, triumphant ascension, mediatorial ministry and personal return.

The Holy Spirit
We believe in the absolute and essential deity and personality of the Holy Spirit Who convinces of sin, of righteousness and of judgment; Who regenerates, sanctifies, illuminates and comforts those who believe in Jesus Christ.

Satan
We believe that Satan exists as an evil personality, the originator of sin, the archenemy of God and man.

Man
We believe that both man and woman were divinely created in the image of God; that both sinned, becoming guilty before God and thereby incurring physical and spiritual death on all mankind.

Salvation
We believe that salvation is by the grace of our sovereign God; that by the appointment of the Father, Christ voluntarily suffered a vicarious, expiatory and propitiatory death; that justification is by faith alone in the shed blood of Christ on the cross, the all-sufficient sacrifice and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and that those whom God has effectively redeemed shall be divinely preserved and finally perfected in the image of God.

Future Things
We believe in the personal, bodily and glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust; in the eternal blessedness of the redeemed and in the judgment and conscious, eternal punishment of the wicked.
