Who we are
This Rock started out of a small bible study on January 1st, 2022. We are a new but growing church and trust the Scriptures that the Lord will set in this body whom He chooses. If you're hungry for the truth of the Scriptures and a good group of people to fellowship with, why don't you come by for a visit and enjoy some time with us in our new building in Minverva Park!
Statement of Faith
Trinity
We believe God exists eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. The Trinity is known as the Godhead in Scripture. Genesis 1:1-2; John 1:1; Romans 1:20; I Timothy 3:16; I John 5:7
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh, was virgin born, and perfectly sinless. He bore the sin of all humanity upon Calvary’s cross. He died, was buried, rose from the grave, ascended to Heaven, and is physically returning to earth soon to rule and reign. Matthew 1:18-25; John 14:1-6; I; Corinthians 15:1-4; I Thessalonians 4:16-18; Revelation 19:11-16, 20:1-6
Scriptures
We believe all Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is perfectly preserved today for us in the King James 1611 Bible. This Bible is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice. Psalm 12:6-7; Isaiah 8:20; John 12:48; Acts 17:11; II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:19-21
Salvation
We believe to be saved is to be delivered from perishing. Jesus Christ shed His perfect and precious blood to atone for the sins of the world. All who repent and trust Him as their personal Lord and Saviour are forgiven and saved from Hell by the grace of God. We believe the saved are eternally secure and have everlasting life. John 3:16-18; Romans 3:10,23; Romans 5:8; Romans 6:23; Romans 10:9-13; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 5:24
Heaven and hell
We believe heaven and hell are real places and not a state of mind. Columbus is a place. New York is a place. Heaven is a place. Hell is a place. The saved go to heaven for eternity while unbelievers are doomed to eternal punishment in Hell. Mark 9:43-48; Luke 16:19-31; Revelation 20:11-15; John 14:1- 3; Revelation 21:1-4
Baptism
We believe after a genuine profession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that a believer should follow the Lord is believer’s baptism. Water baptism by immersion is administered to believers only and is a representation of the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. It is not a sacrament or necessary for salvation, but is the answer of a good conscience. Acts 8:36-38; Acts 10:47-48
Evangelistic Efforts
Engage in different opportunities to reach the local community with the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ through church-organized efforts such as small group discipleship classes, street preaching, and door to door visitation.
Prayer and fellowship
Join us from home for our midweek virtual prayer meeting by contacting us for the meeting invite details. Or join us in person for coffee, tea, and light snacks before, in between, and after our worship services!
Family and Youth
We strive to make This Rock welcoming to families with nursery facilities available and children's classes.
