John Murdock - Pastor
FIRST SOUTHERN BAPTIST CHURCH WELCOMES YOU
Leading people into a relationship and full devotion to Jesus Christ,
to the glory of God the Father
We've been waiting for you! It's true, because we believe that every person
who comes to the circle of this special fellowship was sent by God Himself.
It's not by accident that we have the joy of meeting you.
So, above all else we want to express Christ's love to you,
and we're excited to share with you the marvelous ways God is working in our church.
It won't take you long to discover that this is truly a family,
rich in the relationships that matter most.
Growing together, we worship, we serve, we laugh, we cry, we learn,
and we reach out to the world with life-transforming truth.
We reach out to you as well. Our doors are open. Our hearts are open, too.
If you've been thinking, praying, searching and hoping for a place to belong, we say again...
Welcome Home!
WHAT WE BELIEVE
So That You May Know and Understand
What Guides Our Thoughts and Actions
-
SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST ALONE - And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)
-
THE AUTHORITY OF SCRIPTURE - All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. (II Timothy 3:16-17)
-
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE - And He said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend the whole law and the prophets." (Matthew 22:37-40).
-
WORLD EVANGELISM - Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. (Matthew 28:19-20)
-
FELLOWSHIP OF UNITY AND LOVE - For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit... But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired... But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that members which lacked, that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored all the members rejoice with it. (1 Corinthians 12:12-13; 18; 24b-26)
-
TRUE WORSHIP - But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth. (John 4:23-24)
WHAT WE DO
The genuine worship of the One True God is the church's purpose
and loving service is the mark of the church's ministry.
