Echoes From Calvary

Helping people know Jesus, grow in faith & go into the world equipped to serve.

Only One God

We believe that God is the only God and He is the all powerful, all knowing, ever-present and unchanging creator of everything that has existence. God the Father alone is the highest order of love, truth, righteousness and justice.

Genesis 1:1-27
John 1:1
Romans 11:33-36

His Resurrection

We believe that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, becoming man in order to become a perfect, sinless sacrifice. Jesus, being fully God and fully man, lived a life of total obedience to God the Father and was tempted in all things in order to relate to mankind. Jesus willingly sacrificed His life on the cross and then physically rose from the dead, demonstrating His victory over sin and death. Those who accept Christ as Savior and Lord of their lives receive righteousness through His death and justification through His resurrection..

Matthew 1:18-20
John 3:16
Romans 4:23-25

Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is sent by God the Father to make every person aware of the need for a relationship with Jesus and lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides Christians with power for living, comfort, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing the will of God. He also bestows spiritual gifts to every believer and we seek to live under His direction daily. .

Romans 8:11
John 14:26
1st Corinthians 12:3-11

Holy Bible

We believe the Holy Bible is the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and life. The original manuscripts which comprise the Old and New Testaments, were inspired by God and are inerrant in content and infallible in the truth contained therein. The Scriptures were written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit.

2nd Timothy 3:16
1st Thessalonians 2:13
Psalm 119:9 & 11

God's Creation

We believe that man was created by God as a perfect eternal being in God’s own image. Man chose to be disobedient to God, which marred his perfection, bringing upon himself the judgment of spiritual and physical death. Sin (disobedience to God) eternally separates man from God.

Genesis 1:26 & 31
Romans 3:23
Ephesians 2:1

Salvation

We believe that salvation is a free and undeserved gift from God. Jesus paid for our sins through His death on the cross. We receive God’s promise of eternal life in His Kingdom only by our acceptance of Jesus as our Lord and Savior as evidenced by our ongoing submission to His will.

1st Peter 1:18-21
Acts 4:12
John 3:16

Baptism

We believe that water baptism was taught and demonstrated by Jesus as an example for us to follow. Upon our personal commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we are required to repent of our sins and submit to Him in total obedience by immersion for the forgiveness of our sins, as a testimony of our repentance, and to receive the promised gift of the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 28:19
Acts 2:38
Matthew 3:13-15

Heaven

We believe that Heaven is the supernatural realm where God resides and reigns over all of creation. Heaven is His eternal kingdom where all who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior will enter.

2nd Peter 1:10 & 11
Isaiah 6:1-8
Hebrews 12: 22 & 23

Hell

We believe that hell is the real and everlasting place of separation from God as indicated in scripture. It was created for Satan and his fallen angels as a place of everlasting torment. Those who refuse to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior will spend eternity there.

Matthew 25:41
Matthew 8:12
2nd Thessalonians 1: 8, 9

Holy Marriage

We believe that marriage is a holy institution created by God and intended as a permanent and intimate bond between a man and a woman, as God created them, to become one.

Matthew 19:4-6
Romans 7:2 & 3
Ephesians 5:21-33
