WHO ARE THE WESLEYANS?
The Wesleyan church is an evangelical, Protestant denomination. We offer the good news that faith in Jesus Christ makes possible a wonderful personal relationship with God, a holy life empowered by His Spirit for witness and service, and assurance of eternal life in heaven. Our name is in honor of John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, whose emphasis on a life of faith, self-discipline, and perfect love is our example. Each week, more than 300,000 Wesleyans meet in over 4,000 churches and missions in 72 nations worldwide.
WE BELIEVE
In one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. That Jesus Christ the Son suffered in our place on the cross and that He died but rose again. In the Holy Scriptures as the inspired and inerrant Word of God. That by the grace of God every person has the ability and responsibility to choose between right and wrong, and that those who repent of their sin and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ are justified by faith. That God provides for the believer's growth in grace at every stage of his spiritual life, enabling him through the presence and power of the Holy Spirit to live a victorious life.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
"We will reach out in love with the good news of Jesus: to encourage personal relationships with God and others through worship and obedience, and to equip Christians for service."
OUR PLAN OF SALVATION
The most important decision that anyone makes is regarding salvation. The Bible records how we may be forgiven for our sins. We must:
REPENT of our sins.
Luke 13:3 "...but unless you repent, you too will perish."
CONFESS our sins to God.
I John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins"
BELIEVE Jesus died for us.
John 3:36 "Whoever believes on the Son has eternal life..."
RECEIVE Jesus by faith as our personal savior.
John 1:12 "Yet to all who received him...he gave the right to become children of God."
