NEXT STEPS STEP ONE STEP TWO STEP THREE STEP FOUR BIBLE BAPTISM Why is baptism important? Water baptism is an outward expression of an inward decision to follow Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of your life. Not only does the Bible command us to be baptized, but Jesus Himself was water baptized by immersion. It is the first step of obedience after meeting Jesus personally. Acts 2:41, "Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls." Matthew 3:16, "And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water." What does baptism picture?

NEXT STEPS STEP ONE STEP TWO STEP THREE STEP FOUR Continue GROW IN YOUR FAITH Building your relationship with Jesus and others We are a family, and we want all of our family members to be growing closer to Jesus! The church is a place for healing, encouragement, and learning. The church is also a catalyst for people to spread the love and hope of Jesus. In order to fulfill that mission, we must develop a healthy, vibrant relationship with Jesus and with others. Here are some ways we can grow in our faith. Continue Continue Attend Church Weekly Make sure you get in the habit of attending weekly services! The Bible tells us in Hebrews 10:25, " Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching ." Join us weekly at Arise for our service on Sunday mornings @ 10 AM. Also, Arise is a praying church and we gather as a congregation every Wednesday night at 7:00pm for prayer and Bible study. During this service, we pray for God's guidance for our church as well as the needs of our church, the community, nation, and the world! PLAN YOUR VISIT Continue Daily Read Your Bible The Bible is God’s "user manual" for life. Just as we need to continually breathe oxygen to survive, we need to regularly study the Bible to grow and thrive spiritually. Your New Believer's Bible contains helpful information on how to begin and continue healthy Bible study habits. If you need more assistance, visit the Connect Center and one of our hosts will gladly give you more information to get you started! Continue Talk to God Often Prayer is how we communicate with God. All good relationships need good communication. Your relationship with God is no exception. Even Jesus himself took time to pray to God for guidance and direction. If Jesus felt the need to pray, how much more do we need to do it? Prayer may seem intimidating but it doesn't have to be. Read Luke 11:1-13 to learn how the disciples sought Jesus' direction on how to pray and Jesus gave them the perfect model to follow. Continue Attend Starting Point Have you been visiting with us and wish to know more about the vision and purpose of our church? Or perhaps you have recently become a new member of Arise?

Led by Pastor Will, the classes meet four weeks in a row prior to the Sunday morning worship service and provide you with the opportunity to ask questions and learn how you can serve the Lord here at Arise through an introduction to the various ministries of the church.

We believe the Scriptures to be the inerrant, infallible Word of God, as found within the 66 books from Genesis to Revelation. We believe that God not only inspired every word, but that He has preserved them through the ages. (Psalm 12:6–7; II Timothy 3:15-17; I Peter 1:23-25; II Peter 1:19-21) 02 God We believe in one God; who is eternal, self-existent, infinite, and immutable. We believe He has one nature, one essence, and one substance; yet manifests Himself to man in three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4; I Timothy 1:17; James 1:17; I John 4:4) 03 Jesus Christ We believe Jesus Christ to be the one and only Savior of mankind. We believe Jesus Christ to be eternally God and to possess all the attributes of Deity. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was virgin-born, that He was God incarnate, and that the purposes of the incarnation were to reveal God, to redeem men, and to rule over God’s kingdom. We believe Jesus Christ never relinquished any attributes of His Deity, but merely veiled them. We believe He lived a perfect, sinless life, at the end of which He was offered for all mankind as a substitutionary sacrifice for man’s sin. This sacrifice was a just payment to God for the forgiveness of sin. It was activated by His death through the shedding of His blood on the cross and was accepted by God upon His resurrection. We believe He ascended into Heaven after His resurrection to be seated at the right hand of the Father and is now waiting for the time of receiving His church at the rapture, which is followed by His return seven years later to earth to rule and reign as King for 1,000 years. (Psalm 2:7-9; Isaiah 7:14, 9:6, 43:11; Micah 5:2; Matthew 1:25; Luke 1:26-35; John 1:1, 1:3, 14, 18, 29; Romans 3:19-25; Romans 5:6-15; Philippians 2:5-11; I Thessalonians 4:13-18; I Timothy 2:5; I Timothy 3:16; Titus 2:10-15; Hebrews 7:26, 9:24-28; I Peter 1:19, 2:2; I John 1:3; Revelation 20:1-6) 04 The Holy Spirit We believe the Holy Spirit of God is a person who has personality and all the attributes of Deity. We believe the Holy Spirit has always been involved in the affairs of mankind; however, we believe He has a special ministry that began at Pentecost and will continue until the rapture. This ministry includes reproving the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. The Holy Spirit was also sent to regenerate, sanctify, seal, and fill all who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ. (Genesis 1:2; John 3:5-6; John 14:16; Acts 1:5; Acts 11:15; I Corinthians 3:16; I Corinthians 6:19-20; I Corinthians 12:13) 05 Sin and Salvation We believe all men were born with an inherited sin nature received from our common ancestor, Adam. We believe that because of his nature, man is a sinner by choice, and he is totally incapable of reforming himself or ceasing from his sin by his own power. We believe the only hope of deliverance for man is a total change of mind concerning his sinful condition and inability to change it, and a turning to Jesus Christ as the only Savior. We believe that only through the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ on the cross can a man be delivered from his sin. We believe that all those who reject Jesus Christ as their Savior are already condemned to an eternity in the lake of fire. (Genesis 5:1-5; Acts 4:19; Acts 16:31; Romans 3:10-23; Romans 5:6-12; Romans 6:23; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5-6; Revelation 20:11-14) 06 The New Testament Church We believe the local church is composed of members who have been saved and baptized according to the command of Christ, and have voluntarily united together for the purposes of worship, fellowship, service, and observance of the ordinances of baptism and communion. (Matthew 16:16-18; Acts 1:15; Acts 2:41-43; Acts 11:15; Acts 20:28; I Corinthians 15: 51-58; Ephesians 1:12-14; Ephesians 5:25-30; I Timothy 3:4-15) 07 The Last Days We believe in the literal interpretation of the Scriptures in their grammatical and historical context. We believe in the pre-tribulational rapture of the church saints, followed by the seven-year tribulation. We believe in the pre-millennial return of Christ to the earth and His literal rule of 1,000 years. Following this one thousand year reign is the Great White Throne judgment and then the new heaven and new earth. (I Corinthians 15:51-58; I Thessalonians 4:13-18; I Thessalonians 5:1-9; Revelation 19-22) WHAT WE VALUE Continue 2 TIMOTHY 4:2 BIBLICAL PROCLAMATION We believe the Bible has the power to transform lives and it is our authority above culture, traditions and opinions.
