Our Mission

Greater Salem Baptist Church Mission (GSBC) Statement: 

Seeking to “Make Disciples for Jesus Christ, one heart at a time, one family at a time” Matthew 28:18-20


GSBC Statement of Purpose: 

"The Purpose of our Church is to be Relevant for Eternity."


THE STATEMENT OF ACTION

Upon receiving spiritual gifts and a calling from the Lord to teach the inerrant truth of God’s Word through the unction of the Holy Spirit, we commit to evangelize the world, develop, encourage and equip disciples to live and love in the unity of peace as we walk worthy of the calling with all lowliness and gentleness, with long-suffering, bearing with one another in love.  We further endeavor to join and knit together all followers of Jesus Christ to effectively do the work of the ministry in order for every person to do their share, resulting in the maturity (growth) of the body for the edifying of itself in the love of Christ Jesus.

Our Belief

We believe that the Holy Bible was written by the divinely inspired and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instructions; that it has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without any mixture of error for its matter; it reveals the principles by which God will judge us, and therefore is, and shall remain to the end of the world; the true center of Christian union, and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds, and opinions shall be tried.

  

We (GSBC) hold fast to the truths of The Great Commission:

  • Christ is the authority who demands our obedience (Matthew 28:18; John 20:21).
  • Christ commissions us, and he is the focus of our message (Mark 6:15; Luke 24:46-47).
  • Preaching, teaching, and baptizing are strategies to fulfill the Commission (Matthew 28:18 -20).
  • The message we proclaim is for the world (Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 16:15).
  • Christ promises his power and presence as we go (Matthew 28:20; Acts 1:8).


We Exalt God in worship (Matthew 22:36-37; Acts 2:43-37) in order to give the proper response of the created to the Creator; the necessary response from the redeemed to the Redeemer (Revelations 5:9).


We Evangelize, so that all the world will be drawn to worship a Holy and Merciful God. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:41,42).


We Equip believers so that their lives might give worthy praise in service. (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 2:42).


We Edify others through ministry intended to be a practical expression of praise and adoration. (Matthew 22:39; Acts 2:44-45).


We Encounter God in Prayer as one worthy to hear our praises and confessions even as He responds to our petitions. (Acts 2:42).


We Encourage each other through fellowship, as part of our mandate to honor Him with our lives and uphold His standards. (Acts 2:42,46).


We believe that our Personal Walk with God (Ephesians 4:1-6) is to be evident in our family (Ephesians 5:22-6:4), our Church (Ephesians 4:1-32; 5:1-21), and our work (Ephesians 6:5-9).

  • We believe that a Healthy Church must have its foundation in Biblical/Theological truth of God’s Word. (Ephesians 1:1-3:21).
  • We further believe the pillars of the church are built on the foundation of the word of God.


Finally, we believe and understand that the Cross reminds us of our biblical mandate to proclaim the gospel to the world. We will continue to look beyond ourselves to fulfill the Great Commission. 

The ABCs of Salvation

ADMIT

Honestly to God that you have sinned and disobeyed Him.


THE BIBLE SAYS:

  • Romans 3:23 "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
  • Romans 6:23 "The wages of sin is death (everlasting punishment)


No sin is allowed in heaven.

BELIEVE

That Jesus died on the cross and rose again. His blood was shed to pay for your sins.


THE BIBLE SAYS:

  • 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 "Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures."
  • Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
  • John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."


Because Jesus loves you so much, He took the punishment for you so that you can be forgiven.

CONFESS

To trust Jesus alone for the forgiveness of your sins.


THE BIBLE SAYS:

  • Romans 10:13 "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
  • John 3:18 "He who believes in Him (Jesus) is not condemned."


When you trust in Jesus Christ alone to save you, God forgives you! You become His child, and He promises you a home in heaven forever! Put your trust in Jesus as your Savior from sin. Do it today, and begin following Him by obeying His Word, the Bible.
