AT 3PM
AT OUR CURRENT LOCATION.
ALL ARE WELCOME TO COME!
------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for stopping by.
We rejoice to be a new mission church in Gainesville, GA. The church started taking shape in July 2011 in the form of weekly Bible studies in the home of one of our members. In August, we started having Sunday services at 11am.
As our title states, we are historic reformed Southern Baptists which means that as a SBC church we want to be identified with our predecessors of the faith (like James Petigru Boyce, founder of Southern Seminary, 1827-1888, pictured on the left) who believed that the Lord was absolute Lord of the salvation of man . Man is fallen; he is by nature a sinner; and, therefore, man chooses to sin and to rebel against the Lord, thus, man can not and will not bow his knee to the Lord unless the Lord of salvation comes, draws and saves man (John 6:37-44; 10:26-27). This is the historic faith of the SBC and it is the Biblical faith upon which we stand and proclaim. We want to maintain that good biblical stand here in Gainesville.
To this end, we hold to the Second London Baptist Confession of faith (1689). Each Sunday we read a portion of this confession during our service.
Our worship is conservative and thoughtful. We desire to come to the Lord humbly, soberly, temperately and prayerfully while doing so joyfully. We sing hymns and Psalms while being careful about modern hymns and songs.
During the week we use a Baptist catechism that will help the church grow in their faith and knowledge of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We are unique because we do not have many programs. We worship together both adults and children as families. We believe parents are responsible to teach their children at home so that the children will be able to worship with their parents on Sundays. For ages 1-3, we do have a nursery ministry available during the time of preaching, for parents who wish to participate.
