About First Baptist Church Thomson

For more than 150 years, First Baptist Church has sought to fulfill a very simple purpose in Thomson: Love God, Love People, Serve the World Together. Jesus said that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. We believe the greatest thing we can do in this life is have a relationship with the Living God through Jesus Christ. We want to help our church members and those who visit us build a strong and vibrant relationship through opportunities of worship, prayer, and devotion. Jesus said that the second command is like the first - to love our neighbor as ourself. We believe with the Bible that no one claim claim to love God and yet not love people, whom God made in His image. We love because God first loved us, and we show our love for God through our love for people. As a church, we not only want to share God's love with our community but also to help our church members discover new and meaningful ways to demonstrate their love. Jesus also said that a city on a hill cannot be hidden. If we are shining our light, as He says (not hiding), then the world will see our deeds and glorify our Father. James says that anyone can claim to have faith; we want to be people who prove our faith through our service and love. We want to give our church members ample opportunity to exercise their faith, the gifts, and their talents in many ways as we help one another and serve the world around us. Do you want to be a part of what God is doing in and through First Baptist Church? We certainly want you to be!

BELIEFS

CORE VALUES THE LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST We believe in Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior of the world. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but my Me." John 14:6 EVANGELISM We are driven to reach people with the love of God as revealed in Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19 SERVICE We celebrate the spiritual gifts of every believer and encourage believers to use their spiritual gifts by serving God and His church for His glory. "Be doers of the word and not hearers only." James 1:22 WORSHIP We make private worship and the corporate worship of God a high priority. Jesus said, "You shall worship the Lord your God and Him only shall you serve." Matthew 4:10 DISCIPLESHIP We hold to the authority of the Bible as the inspired Word of God and use it as the source for educating our church about God and His plans for the church. "All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching." 2 Timothy 3:16 MISSIONS AND MINISTRY We are committed to our mission and ministry as we reach our hurting world. Jesus taught, "As often as you did it unto the least of these, you did it unto Me." Matthew 25:40
