Osage Community Bible Church

THE BIBLE: Is the inspired, inerrant, preserved Word of God. The KJV is the best, most accurate translation from the Received Text. OF GOD: Holy, just, infinite. The Father, Son, and Spirit are three distinct persons, yet are one and equal. Created the universe in six literal days. Jesus was born of the virgin Mary, conceived by the Holy Spirit, and is the sinless Son of God. SALVATION: By the grace of God, through faith, with none of our own works. Reconciliation to God only through the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross, and His resurrection from the dead on the 3rd day. THE CHRUCH: Is local and autonomous. Members are made up of saved and baptized (by water immersion) believers. Its mission is to evangelize the lost, baptize new believers, disciple, and teach others to do so. Two ordinances are baptism and the Lord's Supper. Neither are necessary for salvation. END TIMES: Christ will return for His church (Rapture) prior to the Great Tribulation. The world will experience the wrath of God for 7 years. After the Great Tribulation, Christ will bodily return to earth (Second Coming) to set up His kingdom for 1,000 years. After the Millennial Kingdom, the final judgment of Satan and the unsaved will be completed, and eternity future will begin.
