About Us

Jones Creek Baptist Church, lovingly called “The Creek,” is a family oriented church. We love children and enjoy watching them learn about Jesus and His Word. We are a congregation who is seeking to know the will of God for our lives. We believe that each individual is equipped by God to serve the body of Christ.

Mission Statement

To worship God;

To be united in love with one another through Christian fellowship;

To support the work of missions by teaching and equipping believers for ministry to others in Christ's name;

An in so doing, to win the lost to Christ as we spread the gospel to our community, our nation, and our world.

There is only one true God, revealed in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

What We Believe

The Bible is the Word of God and without error, and is the standard for faith and practice.

There is only one true God, revealed in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to earth in human flesh, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as the sacrifice required for our sins, rose from the dead in the body, and will return one day in glory.

Salvation is available to all who place their faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior and Lord.

The Holy Spirit indewells all believers at the time of salvation. All true believers are eternally secure and endur to the end.

A New Testament Church is a local body of believers brought together by God to glorify Him and carry out His Kingdom work of winning people to Christ and making disciples.

How to Become a Christian

The Bible tells us "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Deciding to run our own lives instead of following God is called sin. All people are guilty of sin because everyone disobeys God.

The Bible also says: "For the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). The results of disobeying God is a broken relationship with Him. If a person chooses not to accept the gift of salvation from God, they will spend eternity in hell.

The Bible goes on to say, "But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 6:23). Nothing we do can pay the debt we owe for the sin we have committed. Jesus paid the debt for us. God offers salvation as a gift to those who come to Jesus in faith. We must put our faith in Jesus as Savior if we want to receive the gift. The gift includes a life full of new meaning now, and future eternal life with God in heaven.
