Our Message
Manor Woods is all about knowing God through His
Word. We believe the Bible is God’s
Word, literally; His message to His people about
His plan for their lives. The Bible is as relevant
today as it was when it was first written and
gives us direction, guidance, and wisdom for living
life to its fullest. Sermons on Sunday mornings
dig deep into the meaning of God’s Word
and how we can put it into practical use in our
everyday lives.
We strive to follow the pattern
of the New Testament church. We follow the God-given
pattern of weekly communion and the immersion
(baptism in water) of believers for the forgiveness
of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. We believe
God loves us, made us, and doesn’t
want empty religion, but rather a loving relationship
with us all. We teach that sin is when you don’t
follow God’s plan for your life, which will
separate you from God, and eternally from
His love (Hell). But those who through God’s
grace accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior,
are baptized in His name, and live for Him completely,
receive forgiveness for sin and the gift of eternal
life in Heaven.
