About Timberwood Church
We offer a place where people who don’t know Jesus, can come to personally know Him. This happens locally, as well as globally.
We have the desire to be transformed by Christ and to learn more about Him and His love for us through His Word. We are committed to offering these opportunities to our members and community.
As we continue to grow and move forward in our spiritual life, we can then be in a position to lead in our sphere of influence from a posture of service that Jesus Christ modeled for us.
We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, is absolutely reliable and trustworthy, and is our supreme and final authority in faith and life (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20, 21).
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, 26; Matthew 28:19; John 1:1, 3; 4:24; Acts 5:3, 4; Romans 1:20; Ephesians 4:5, 6; 2 Corinthians 13:14).
We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man (Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 1:26-38; Romans 9:5; Titus 2:13).
We believe that we are created in the image of God, that we sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also that spiritual death which is separation from God, and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and become guilty sinners in thought, word, and deed (Genesis 1:26,27; 3:1-24; Romans 3:23; 5:12-18; 1 John 1:8).
We believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice, that He rose victorious from the grave on the third day, and that all who believe in Him as Savior are justified on the grounds of His sacrificial death (Isaiah 53; Matthew 20:28; John 3:16; Romans 3:24-26; 5:1; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Ephesians 1:7; 1 John 2:2; Matthew 28:6; Romans 10:9; 1 Corinthians 15:14).
We believe in the personal and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17).
We believe that all who come by grace through faith to accept the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God (John 1:12, 13; 3:3, 5; Ephesians 2:8, 9; James 1:18; 1 Peter 1:23).
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting joy of the saved and the everlasting punishment of the lost (John 5:28-29; 1 Corinthians 15; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Matthew 25:31-46; Revelation 20:4-6; 11-15).
We believe that all Christians receive the Holy Spirit when they are born again (Acts 2:28-41,47; Acts 10:44-47; 1 Corinthians 12:13).
We believe that water baptism by immersion in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the biblical testimony of the professed believer (Acts 2:28-41,47; Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 8:36-40; 10:47; 18:8; Romans 6:3, 4; 1 Corinthians 12:13).
We believe that those who partake of the Lord’s Supper should be born-again believers, walking in fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 2:42-46; 1 Corinthians 11:23-29).
We believe that as Christians we are to meet together regularly for worship, ordinances, and the encouragement of each other (Hebrews 10:24, 25; Acts 2:42, 46, 47a.).
