Bible Study Groups
(Outreach & pulpit supply)
We are committed first and foremost to a clear and consistent scriptural presentation of the biblical Gospel message. The Bible clearly teaches that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ, and that biblical salvation is by God's grace alone, through faith alone—in Jesus Christ alone!
We are also firmly committed to the sound interpretation of Scripture (exegesis) based on the literal, historical, grammatical method of interpretation. We do not subscribe to the popular "New Hermeneutics" of the 21st century that is craftier than ever at recasting and undermining biblical revelation and the person, work, and nature of Jesus Christ, in order to appeal to the masses.
We stand with those who implement the tried and true traditional hermeneutics through which the historic Christian faith has been upheld, defended and proclaimed for approximately 2000 years.
For these reasons, expositional teaching is our preferred method of delivery when teaching through the scriptures. We also expose any and all doctrines that oppose or nullify the Gospel of grace as found in Scripture and we will stand against those that suppress, and/or reject doctrinal truth for the sake of unbiblical ecumenical unity.
Included in our studies are mentions of various themes pertaining to current global events, the growing ecumenical apostasy that the Bible foretells would be characteristic of the end-of-times prior to Christ's literal bodily return to earth, and how Christians ought to respond and live at such a time as this.
