“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).

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 inspired by the Holy Spirit of God. We believe that the Scriptures are the final authority in all matters of faith and practice, and the true basis of Christian fellowship. (John 6:63 / 2 Timothy 3:16-17 / 2 Peter 1:20-21)
God We believe in one God who is the creator of all: holy, sovereign, eternal, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one. (Genesis 1:1 / Isaiah 45:18 / Colossians 1:16-17 / 1 John 5:7)
Jesus Christ We believe in the absolute and essential deity of Jesus Christ the Son of God (John 8:24); in His virgin birth, sinless life, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, glorious ascension, intercessory ministry for the saints, and His personal return. (Isaiah 7:14, 9:6, 53 / 2 Corinthians 5:21 / 1 Corinthians 15:12-19 / Luke 24:51 / Acts 1:9-11)
The Holy Spirit We believe in the absolute and essential deity of the Holy Spirit. He convicts of sin, of righteousness and of judgment to come (Hebrews 6:4-6 / John 16:4-15). The Spirit of God regenerates, sanctifies, illuminates and comforts those who believe in Jesus Christ. (Titus 3:5 / John 14:15-26)
Satan We believe that Satan/Lucifer is the enemy of the Born Again Church, the originator of sin, the archenemy of God and man. (1 Peter 5:8-9 / 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 / Revelation 12:9)
Man We believe that men and women were divinely created in the image of God; that both sinned, becoming guilty before God and thereby receiving the curse of physical and spiritual death on all mankind. (Genesis 1:27 / Genesis 3 / Romans 5:12)
Salvation We believe that salvation is by the grace of God, through believing faith in the Lord Jesus for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and that our justification is by faith alone in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9 / Titus 3:5 / Galatians 2:16 / Romans 10:9-10 / Acts 16:30-31 / Ephesians 1:7&13 / 1 John 5:13 / John 3:16 / John 3:3 / Mark 1:15)
Future Things We believe, as the Bible says, that the second coming Christ is in two parts – First, for the resurrection of the believers at Christ’s coming in the clouds, to gather His saints unto Him at the rapture, and for the eternal blessedness of the redeemed. (2 Thessalonians 2:1-4) Second, for the battle of Armageddon, and to bring in the millennial reign. (Revelation 16:12-16 / Revelation 19:11-21 / Revelation 20:4-6)
