MEMBERSHIP

Members of Grace Bible Church Must Demonstrate the Following:
Saving Faith:
You must testify that you have trusted in Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and acknowledge that your salvation is by faith alone in His finished works.

"If you confess that Jesus is Lord, and you believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
Doctrine:
You must read the doctrinal statement and constitution of Grace Bible Church and be in total agreement.

"There is one Body and one Spirit...there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father of us all." Ephesians 4:4-6

"Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints." Jude 3
Church Attendance:
You pledge to be consistent as God's providence permits in the regular assemblies of the congregation for worship, prayer, and matters of church business.

"Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another- and all the more as you see the Day approaching." Hebrews 10:25
Spiritual Life:
With God's help, you will faithfully strive to grow spiritually which includes regular Bible study, prayer, witnessing to others, and submission to the dicipline of church leaders.

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God."
​Colossians 3:16
