OUR CHURCH

 

 The Highland Gardens Family is working to promote:  Love, Unity, and Humility through God's Word. (Philippians 2:1-5). 

 

 People's Lives are being changed through sharing The Greatest Love Story Ever Told: "The Gospel of Christ" and his death, burial, and glorious resurrection. Our mission is to be a beacon light in the community and bring lost souls to Christ.

 

  • We Believe that there is One Body; The Church,, and the Lord adds all the saved to The Church. 

  • We Believe that the Bible is the inspired and engrafted Word of God.

  • We Believe that the only hope for redemption is through the shedded Blood of Jesus.

  • We Believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

  • We Believe that the Holy Spirit is the indwelling presence of God received after baptism.

 

    To Come to Christ You Must

 

  • Hear the Word of God (Acts15:7, Romans 10:17)

  • Believe That Jesus Died for Your Sins (John 8:24, Hebrews 11:6)

  • Repent of Your Sins (Luke 13:3,5, Acts 17:30, Matthew 21:28-30)

  • Confess Jesus Christ is the Son of God (Acts 8:37, Romans 10: 9-10)

  • Be Baptized in Water for the Remission of Sins (Acts 2:38,)

  • Live Faithful Unto Death (Revelations 2:10)

 

 We affectionately refer to ourselves as "The Garden".  We are flourishing through God's Word and the work of His Kingdom. The ground is fertile, the soil is being watered, and lives are blooming.

 

Come Grow and Serve with the Family that meets at the Church of Christ in Highland Gardens!
