Our Mission

The mission of Gateway Bible Church is to reach as many people in our community and the world as we can with the loving, saving message of Jesus Christ. We will do this with integrity, verve, and perseverance, always asking for and following the will of God.

Our Beliefs

We believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The three are co equal and are one God.

We believe that the Bible is God's written revelation to man and that it is verbally inspired, authoritative, and without error in the original manuscripts.

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, and death on the cross to provide for our redemption, bodily resurrection and ascension into heaven, present ministry of intercession for us, and His return to earth in power and glory.

We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, that He performs the miracle of the new birth in an unbeliever and indwells believers, enabling them to live a godly life.

We believe that man was created in the image of God, but because of sin, was alienated from God. That alienation can be removed only by accepting through faith God's gift of salvation which was made possible by Christ's death.
