Welcome:
Thank you for visiting my blog. My name is Rick Garland and I am the pastor of First Baptist Church in Lomita, California. We are an Independent Reformed Baptist Church in the South Bay area of Los Angeles. You can find info about FBC and links to sermons and our website here. If you are not a Christian please begin by reading The Gospel Message tab at the top.
“To accept Christ is to receive Him by faith as your Lord and Savior. But, strictly speaking, the great thing to see is that God has accepted Christ. He took our sins upon Himself, died to make propitiation (the sacrifice which removed the anger of God) for them. But God raised Him from the dead and has taken Him up to glory. God has accepted Christ in token of His perfect satisfaction in His work. Believing this, the soul enters into peace. I simply rest in God’s thoughts about His son.”
