Exalting the Lord through the Word

Salvation by grace through faith alone in the finished work of Christ on the cross is the

first need for everyone. We preach this gospel from the pulpit and encourage our people

to win the lost in their sphere of influence.

After one has been saved the process of discipleship and growth begins. The first and

most important thing for the believer is daily fellowship with Jesus Christ (John 15:4).

We cannot succeed on our own; we cannot fail with His aid (Psalm 1:3). Fellowship with

Christ is the direct result of the believer feeding on the Word daily (Psalm 119). We try

to encourage each other to do that and provide classes and information that will help. Our

pastor preaches the Word in an expository manner in order to feed the flock the Lord

sends our way.

The Heart of Whitworth Baptist Church is an available brochure that details the above

ideas. And the specifics of how to personally have fellowship with Christ is available in

the handout Reading the Bible.
