WHAT IS THE HEARTLAND

CHURCH OF CHRIST?

 

 


 

 

We are a community of men and women who have been converted to Christ. This conversion involves a complete change of heart. This wonderful change comes through the regenerating power of God’s word.  (Tit. 3:5-6; I Pet. 1:22-23.)

 

     Our faith in Christ is in the testimony of God’s inspired word—the Bible. (I Tim. 3:16-17; Rom. 10:17.)

 

     Without this faith we cannot approach God for salvation. (Heb. 11:6; John 8:24.)

 

     This faith in Christ results in godly sorrow that produces repentance. (2 Cor. 7:10.) This re­pentance leads to salvation.

 

     We gladly confess our faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God (Matt. 16:17, 18.)  All who will not confess Christ will be denied by Him (Matt. 10:32, 33.) This confession is a work of the heart. (Rom. 10:10.)

 

     We have been baptized into Christ (Rom. 6:3) by being buried with Him in baptism (Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12) for the remission of sins  (Acts 2:38.)  Through belief and baptism we become children of God (Gal. 3:26-27) and the Lord adds us to his church.  (Acts 2:47.)

 

     We assemble together on the first day of the week to take communion (1 Cor. 10:16) and to remember our Lord’s death.  (1 Cor. 11:24, 25.)

 

     On the first day of every week we set aside a sum of money in keeping with our income, to preach the gospel and to serve the needs of other people. (1 Cor. 16:1, 2; James 2; 1 John 3:16, 17.)

 

     Our public worship consists of prayer, congrega­tional singing, preaching, the Lord’s Supper, and our contri­bution. We never ask any to support our work who are not members of our congregation.

 

     We believe in sending the gospel to every nation and to every person on earth (Matt. 28:19, 20; Mark 16:15, 16.)

 

THE HEARTLAND VISION

 

We live our lives with honor and integrity and conduct ourselves in such a way that we have a positive influence for Christ on the lives of others.  Our goal is to make sure we, our family and many others go to heaven.

 

Proverbs  29:18

Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he.
