Keywords and
Tags:
To better
identify our church to
those who may search on the following terms we provide the following:
Bible-believing.
We believe the Bible was divinely inspired and has been divinely
preserved for the English-speaking people in the King James Bible.
Other common terms for the Bible include: King James Version, 1611
Authorized Version, 1611 AV, KJB, KJV, King James Only, KJV Only.
Traditional
worship. We enthusiastically sing conservative and traditional
Christian hymns. This is not a matter of preference for us, it is a
matter of conviction. We reject the idea that we can worship a holy God
with the devil's music style. We firmly reject man-centered,
entertainment-heavy "contemporary" music in the church. Some may call
us "old fashioned," but we simply seek to put true worship above
entertainment.
independent
Baptist. We are an independent Baptist, local church. We are Baptist by
belief and not by association. We are completely independent of any
non-Biblical ecclesiastical authority.
fundamental
or "fundamentalist." We are a fundamental church. This means that we
believe the historic fundamental, or basic, doctrines of the Christian
faith. These fundamentals include: the verbal, plenary (or complete)
inspiration of the Scriptures; the virgin birth, deity, and bodily
resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ; Salvation by faith through grace
alone; and the primacy of the local church ministry. We would also
align ourselves with the militant aspect of fundamentalism in the sense
that we hold these beliefs deeply and passionately. For a point of
reference some well-known Bible-believing fundamental Christians
include: J. Frank Norris, DL Moody, Dr. Jack Hyles, Dr. Peter Ruckman
(Ruckmanite), Dr. Paul Chappell, Lester Rolloff, Jack Woods, Rick
DeMichele, and others (no we do not believe or endorse everything about
these men--this list is just a reference)
soul
winning. We are a soul winning church. We emphasize the personal
responsibility of every born-again believer to be an active and
aggressive witness for Jesus Christ.
Separated.
We believe Christians should live holy, separated lives consistent with
the Scriptures. We hold to conservative standards for ministry workers.
philosophy
of ministry. We believe ministry should be Christ-centered, not seeker
centered. Our passion is to bring the truth of Christ to a lost and
dying world, not to try to make God acceptable in man's sight.
preaching.
Preaching is one of our core values. We believe in clear, plain,
passionate, and direct preaching of the word of God. We emphasize
preaching in our services. While teaching has an important place in a
church, the main need for today is uncompromized Bible preaching.
- Location.
We are
located in the heart of Orange County, Southern California. We are very
convenient to all the major tourist attractions in Orange County
including: Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, Angels Stadium, and the
