Statement of Faith
Being led by the Holy Spirit, I was moved to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior as a child in 1972. After my acceptance of the Wonderful and Powerful name of Jesus, I was baptized by immersion at New Testament Missionary Baptist Church in South Bend, Indiana. Through diligent study of the Word of God and with much prayer, I have grown in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior.
It is my belief that I was once lost and on my way to eternal damnation to be totally separated from God. According to John 3:16, “God sent His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life.” God saved me, sealed me, and secured me in Jesus Christ for all eternity. I am so grateful and thankful for God’s unfailing love and mercy that He has shown towards me. I thank Him for the salvation that He alone can provide through His Son Jesus Christ. It is an honor and privilege to be His servant and a vessel in His redemptive work. I thank God for choosing and using me to preach the Gospel. As you can see, I have a lot to thank God for.
After all ... All that I am, all that I have, I owe it all to Him.
