Our Vision:
For every believer to have a passion for God, a passion for people, and a passion to serve.
Purpose and Mission:
Immanuel Baptist Church exists to make disciples in all the world, beginning in Magnolia, by doing God's work, God's way, for God's glory.
God
God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Genesis 1:1,26,27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; I Peter 1:2; II Corinthians 13:14
Man
Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. He is the supreme object of God's creation. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin." This attitude separates man from God.
Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isaiah 53:6a; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 59:1-2
Eternity
Man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or in union with God, through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.
John 3:16; I John 2:25 and 5:11-13; Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:15
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5 and 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14-15; I Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 1:3-4; Acts 1:9-11; I Timothy 6:14-15; Titus 2:13
Salvation
Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin's penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6 and 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26; Romans 5:1
Eternal Security
Because God gives man eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives this security.
John 10:29; II Timothy 1:12; Hebrews 7:25 and 10:10-14; I Peter 1:3-5
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under His control daily.
II Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13 and 14:16-17; Acts 1:8; I Corinthians 2:12 and 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 5:18
The Bible
The Bible is God's Word to all men. Human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error.
II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20-21; II Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105,160 and 12:6; Proverbs 30:5
We value personal obedience to Scripture
Do not merely listen to the Word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. [James 1:22]
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. [2 Timothy 3:16, 17]
We value servanthood
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. [Matt. 20:25-28]
serving with gladness. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs. [Psalm 100:2]
We value excellence
Whatever your finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working, nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom. [Ecc. 9:10]
Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else. [Gal. 6:4]
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. [Col. 3:23]
We value authenticity
We will be truthful, sincere, honest and open in our dealings with one another.
We will speak the truth in love.
Now this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in our relations with you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God. We have done so not according to worldly wisdom but according to Gods grace. [2 Corinth. 1:12]
We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you. [2 Corinth. 6:11]
We value respect of all people
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus. [Phil. 2:3-5]
My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, dont show favoritism. [James 2:1]
We value teamwork
We value peoples giftedness and therefore encourage everyone to find and use their gifts in the appropriate ministry. Only when we do this will the team be at its best!
Two are better off than one, because together they can work more effectively. [Ecc. 4:9 GNB]
In Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
[Romans 12:5]
Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others. [1 Peter 4:10]
We value freedom and innovation
Recognizing that all people are different, we value innovation and the freedom to do whatever it takes to reach them with the gospel of Christ.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. [2 Corinthians 3:17 NIV]
Wise men and women are always learning, always listening for fresh insights.
[Proverbs 18:15 The Message]
We value growth
We value personal spiritual growth, believing every member must make a conscious commitment to grow to spiritual maturity. . . until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. [Ephesians 4:13 NIV]
We value church growth, recognizing that under Christs control, . . . the whole body . . .is supported and held together. . . and it grows as God wants it to grow. [ Colossians 2:19 GNB]
We value relationships
God/Christ - Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. [Mark 12:30]
Family - But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. [Joshua 24:15]
Others - Love your neighbor as yourself. [Mark 12:31]
We value unity
How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity. [Psalm 133:1]
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus. . . [Romans 15:5]
Make every effort {do whatever it takes} to keep the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace. [Ephesians 4:3]
About us: Our church staff is a varied group - a lot like our church. We have the full-range from the more reserved to the over-the-top extoverts. We like to think it's part of what makes our church so unique: everyone can find someone they can relate to on our staff. We are here to serve you.
