About Salvation We believe that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that the wages of sin is death. However, God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever (that means us and you) believes in Him shall not perish, but shall have everlasting life. (John 3:16) We believe that we are saved by grace through faith. In other words, if we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and pledge to live for God and strive to do what's pleasing in His sight, we become saved because we believe God hears our pledge (prayer). We can't buy salvation, earn it, borrow it or receive it based on what others have done. We can only receive salvation as a gift from God. We believe that God is no respector of persons; what He has done for us, He'll do for others. However, if we seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, all other things (material) will be given unto us as they fit into the will of God. (Matthew 6:33).
