A Word of Welcome and Hope

For Prayer, Call 347-692-5520

Welcome to Bible Christian Church dedicated to Baptist reformed theology and  the communication and teaching and preaching of the "Five Solas."  No, this doesn't refer to operatic "solos." The Solas appeared in a document called The Cambridge Declaration in the 1990's and are as follows: By grace alone (sola gratia), by faith alone (sola fides), by Christ alone (sola Christos), by Scripture alone (sola Scriptura), and for the glory of God alone (soli deo gloria). These wonderful terms are useful and I believe even essential for defining our path of worship of and obedience to  Holy Scripture and to Jesus Christ.  

I'll be so happy to see you or to hear from you -- if you believe you are a sinner (I'm one too) and you are ready to repent  and to follow Jesus Christ in spirit and in truth, in holiness and righteousness as He may lead, and for Him to become your Lord as well as your Savior, then please call and share with me the direction of your heart and I will encourage you and pray with you.  He's a wonderful Savior and Lord - full of mercy, truth, faithfulness, justice, hope, joy, and peace in the Holy Spirit.  And let's not forget about his perfect and  encompassing love. 

Our beautiful Jesus is calling to you today to repent and to receive Him.  The Holy Bible says, "To as many as received Him, He gave the power to become children of God and to believe in His Name." (John 1:12)  That's one of my favorite verses in the Bible. Won't you believe this humble witness, and repent right now and remain in prayer? Then give me a call and come to one of our Bible studies or services.  God just wants to bless you and encourage your heart as you turn to him in your conversion, longing, and sorrow for your sins.
