JoCoBikersForChrist
We are JOHNSTON COUNTY BIKERS FOR CHRIST. We are not a motorcycle CLUB....we are a MINISTRY!!
Our goal is to impact our county , our community, our state , and our world for JESUS CHRIST !!! We concentrate on the local level and take it all over the world. Jesus said ..."Go ye therefore unto ALL nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit" in the great commission. Our desire is to fulfill this...starting right here in Johnston County. We have a burden for all people in Johnston County to know the truth of how Jesus Christ can change their lives......thru our testimonies of how HE changed ours....and most importantly.....thru GOD's WORD...THE HOLY BIBLE .
We are very service minded as a chapter and love to be used of God in our community in fund raisers, and on one on one personal situations that are to the Glory of God. Also, we have outreaches to the Children's Home in Middlesex (closest one to JOCO) and Cardinal Care Assisted Living Center in Benson.
We are very excited about how God is going to use us this year in our county to continue to serve and fulfill the GREAT COMMISSION.
Testimony page coming soon please check back......

Statement of Faith
What we believe about God's Word (Our Owners Manual)
The Trinity
We believe that there is one living and true God who eternally exists in three persons; The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three are equal in power and glory.
God (God the Father)
We believe that God is the creator and ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God. Gen. 1:1, 26, 27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matt. 28:19; 2 Corn. 13:14; 1Peter 1:2.
Jesus Christ (God the Son)
We believe that Jesus Christ is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as a perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven's glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as Kings and Lord of Lords. Isaiah 9:6; Matt. 1:22-23; John 1:1-5, 14:10-30; 1 Corn.15:3-4; Romans 1:3-4; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Tim. 6:14-15; Titus 2:13; Heb. 4:14-15.
The Holy Spirit (God the Holy Spirit/Ghost)
We believe that the Holy Spirit/Ghost is co-equal with the Father and Jesus. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians we seek to live under His control daily. John 16:7-13, 14:16-17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corn. 2:12, 3:16; 2 Corn. 3:17; Gal. 5:25; Eph. 1:13,5:18.
The Bible
We believe that the Bible is God's Holy Word to us. Our Owner's Manual for life. The Bible was authored by God and written by human writers under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error. Psalm 12:6, 119:105, 160; Pro. 30:5; 2 Tim. 1:13, 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21.
Human Beings
We believe that people are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the supreme object of God's creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called sin. This attitude separates people from God and causes many problems in life. We are by nature separated from God and responsible for our own sin. Gen. 1:27; Psalm 8:3-6; Isa. 53:6, 59:1-2; Rom. 3:23.
Salvation
We believe that salvation is God's free gift to us but we must accept it. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God's offer of forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin's penalty. Only when we turn from our self-ruled life and turn to Jesus in faith are we saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his or her life by faith. Rom. 3:23, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9-10, 13; Eph. 2:8-9; John 14:6, 1:12; Titus 3:5; Gal. 3:26; Rom. 5:1.
Eternal Security
We believe that because God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ, the true believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. If you have been genuinely saved, you cannot lose it! Our salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace keeping power of God that gives us this security not an act of works. John 10:29; 2 Tim. 1:12; Heb. 7:25, 10:10, 14; 1Pet. 1:3-5.
Eternity
We believe that people were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with Him through forgiveness and salvation. Those who do not receive, by faith, the free gift of salvation from God will be forever separated from Him in a place called Hell. Those who do, by faith, receive this free gift will forever be in God's presence in a place called Heaven. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence. John 3:16, 14:17; Rom. 6:23, 8:17-18; Rev. 20:15; 1Corn. 2:7-9.
