Our promise....
We like to form our church beliefs around the Gospel of John Chapter 4 and
Chapter 8. In chapter 4 we read about the Samaritan woman at the well.
Here Jesus asks her for a drink of water even though Jews don't associate
with Samaritans at that time. She is shocked, and then Jesus goes on to let
her know that He knows her deepest secrets. Yet in all this teaching Jesus is
doing, He never holds her past against her, nor does He ever chastise her.
The Samaritan woman is amazed and her life is changed by this Man the
Messiah. Similarly in John 8 we see the story of the adulteress that is brought
before Jesus by the religious leaders to be stoned. As the story goes Jesus
says let he who is without sin cast the first stone, and everyone ended up
walking away without a single stone being thrown. In this powerful message
we see that NO ONE is worthy to judge us accept the Lord Himself.
Thankfully so, as none of us are perfect either. It's this thought process we
extend to you. We will not judge you and we will not chastise you for your
past way of life. We WILL help steer you in your walk with the Savior and in
your new life with Him. As we say at the church: We are just normal people,
with normal issues, trying to get closer to God!
We promise!
