3 Reasons to Visit Victory

We preach expositionally through the Scriptures

The Scriptures are inspired by God. They are infallible, inerrant, authoritative, and sufficient for all faith and life (2 Tim. 3:16, 17). This being the case, the Word of God ought to be central in our worship. Because of this, at Victory Baptist Church, we have resolves to preach and teach through the Scriptures expositionally. This means that, at Victory, with the help of the Spirit, the Word of God will be preached in a reverent, accurate, and applicable fashion. Preaching expositionally is not merely preaching through the Bible, it is presenting and expounding the Bible on the Bible’s terms.

We also preach experimentally. To experiment is to test. At VBC the Word is preached such that the congregation is exhorted to test their lives against the objective authority of the Word of God. This is also referred to as applicational preaching, experiential preaching, or practical preaching.

We believe that preaching the whole counsel of God is His gracious means of sustaining and growing His people, as they are conformed to the image of Christ (Rom. 8:28-30). It is our prayer that both law and Gospel will be preached fully, and that they will be rightly related one to the other, for the glory of God and for the good of His people.

We believe in & teach the Doctrines of Grace

Apart from Christ, man is totally depraved (Jer. 17:9; Rom. 3:10, 11, 23). In the flesh, he can’t do anything pleasing before God (Rom. 8:7, 8). Because of this, he is totally dependent upon God’s electing grace in order to be reconciled to a just and holy God. This is what we call unconditional election (Eph. 1:4). It’s this elected people for whom Christ gave Himself in His atoning work. This is called limited or definite atonement and is proven in Ephesians 5:25, where we learn for whom Christ died, His church. Those who have been elected, not because of anything within themselves, but upon the grace of God alone, are effectually called, by an inward work of the Holy Spirit, and this we refer to as irresistible grace (Rom. 8:28-30). Those who have been elected before the foundation of the world and called by the grace of God in the Gospel, will continue in the faith until the very end. This we call perseverance of the saints (Rom. 8:38, 39).

We trust in Christ, through whom & for whom are all things

Christ is Lord.

At VBC, by God’s grace, we strive to exalt Christ above all things, to preach Him from the Scriptures, and to imitate Him in every aspect of congregational and personal life. We do not believe that a person can have Christ as Savior, without having Him as Lord. If a person truly has Christ, they have all of Him. We do not exist to entertain; we exist to obey the Lord Jesus in our doctrine and practice, both in worship and in daily life.

It is our prayerful desire that you would join us for worship, every Sunday at 11am and 1pm. We’d love to meet you!
