My Faith Statements:

For years I have wanted to put an article about my faith on my website. There were questions which arose.
I recall having conversations with others about keeping your faith and business seperate. My conclusion? Bunk. How can you seperate the very things that drive you to Integrity, Honesty, Compassion and Responsibility from your everyday dealings with others personal or business.

But faith is a very private thing! You cannot hide the very thing that gives you life regardless of what faith it is. To hide it would be to turn your back on God.

You may lose potential customers. If someone has a problem with one's faith (Christian or otherwise) I have to question their integrity to begin with and perhaps I should wonder if I want to do business with them?

In the words of the Andrae Crouch song from the seventies:

“Jesus is the answer for the world today
Above him there's no other, Jesus is the way”

JESUS CHRIST
I believe that Jesus Christ is both true God and true man. I believe all the wonderful things relating ot Jesus Christ's life and ministry, including: His eternal preexistence, His virgin birth, His attesting miracles, His sinless life, His sacrificial death on the cross, His glorious bodily resurrection from the dead, His ascension into heaven, and His present work in heaven as High Priest and Advocate. He will return in glory to resurrect and judge all mankind.

I believe that God is triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the Three are coexistent, coeternal, and equal in divine perfection (1 John 5:7).

THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
I believe the Bible is God-inspired (2 Timothy 3:16,17).
THE ETERNAL GODHEAD
I believe God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14).
THE FALL OF MAN
I believe that man was created in the image of God, but that by voluntary disobedience he fell from perfection (Romans 5:12).
THE PLAN OF SALVATION
I believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, signing the pardon of all who believe on Him (John 3:16; Romans 5:8).
SALVATION THROUGH GRACE
I believe that we have no righteousness and must come to God pleading the righteousness of Christ (Ephesians 2:8).
REPENTANCE AND ACCEPTANCE
I believe that upon sincere repentance, and a whole-hearted acceptance of Christ, we are justified before God (I John 1:9).

IMPERITIVE DECISION

I believe that everyone on this earth MUST make their own decision about Christ.


FAVORITE VERSE
Psalm 89:
15Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.
16In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
