Hello March! Hello New Beginnings!
As we enter into this new month, let us move forward with a renewed mind and spirit looking forward to a bright future with hope and determination. We must continue moving forward and striving with a renewed heart, embracing whatever new changes God brings our way staying steadfast and unmovable. We must walk in a spirit of resiliency as we meet our daily new challenges. As a community, we must go forth with unwavering faith believing and trusting in God to bring us through the storms that may come our way, overcoming adversity. This month we must set our hearts on the course that is aligned with the plans God has for us keeping in mind that “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." (James 1:17) We have to continue to move towards change recognizing that trials and tribulations will come but they come to strengthen our faith and to make us strong. Brand New Month, Brand New Day, Brand New Beginnings! Much love, peace and blessings, Pastor Waterman, First Gentleman Deacon Waterman & First Family The Year of Embracing the Change

Our Doctrinal Statement
We the, Polite Temple Baptist Church, believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God in doctrine and life & that Jesus Christ was 100% man and was 100% God manifested in the flesh, conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary.
Salvation
We believe that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and all are in need of God's salvation through Jesus Christ.
|
The Holy Trinity
We believe in the Triune God; the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Eternal Life
We believe Jesus Christ bore our sins in His own body on Calvary's Cross. The sacrificial offering of His life & His precious blood. God the Father accepts as full payment for the penalty of our sins. Through faith in Him, God grants the believer the forgiveness of sins & eternal life.
