About Us
Who we are
We are an assembly of believers that meets according to New Testament example. Located in North Raleigh at the intersection of Harps Mill Road and Falls of Neuse Road.
A friendly welcome awaits you at North Ridge Bible Chapel. We are a non-denominational group of Christians who gather for worship, teaching, prayer, singing and fellowship. It is our purpose to glorify God, to teach the truths of His Word, and to share His message of salvation with the world.
We believe that real life is found only through faith in Jesus Christ. The goal of all our ministries is to lead people to Him and the abundant life that we experience living under His Lordship.
You are invited to take part in the many activities here at North Ridge Bible Chapel. Come enjoy the warm fellowship and gain insight from the practical teaching of the Word of God.
Our Leadership
Spiritual leadership is through a group of men that serve as elders in the local assembly and provide spiritual guidance.
For spiritual guidance please contact one of the elders:
What we believe
This statement of faith is provided so you may know what we believe; however, our final authority is the Word of God.
We believe in one God, eternally existent in three Persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – and that He created everything out of nothing for His own pleasure and purpose.
We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments to be the verbally inspired Word of God, inerrant and infallible in the original manuscripts, and the supreme and final authority in matters of faith and life, interpreted by the Holy Spirit to each individual believer.
We believe that man was created in the image of God, and that when he sinned the race incurred both physical and spiritual death; thus man became alienated from God and incapable of remedying his sinful condition by his own means.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was begotten of the Father through the Holy Spirit, was born of the virgin Mary, and is true man without ceasing to be God.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ lived a sinless and perfect life that fully pleased His Father: that He died for our sins on the cross, bearing the judgment demanded by God’s holy justice against sin, thus making it possible for God to remain just and at the same time to justify those who believe in Jesus.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ rose bodily from the dead, never to die again, and is ascended to the right hand of the Father, where He intercedes as High Priest and Advocate on behalf of all who believe in Him.
We believe that those who, by faith alone and through no merit of their own, receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior are miraculously born again of the Holy Spirit and, as children of God, become partakers of His divine nature and of eternal life.
We believe that the Holy Spirit baptizes all true believers into the one true church, His Body; that He indwells them eternally, bestows spiritual gifts upon them, and empowers them for service and holy living.
We believe that the Scriptures have given us everything pertaining to life and godliness, including not only salvation from the penalty of sin but instruction in righteousness for present sanctification and victorious living, to the glory of God.
We believe that two ordinances, neither of which is essential to salvation, are to be observed by all believers in obedience to our Lord until Christ’s return. baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
We believe that at death the souls of the redeemed pass immediately into Christ’s presence to remain there until the resurrection of the body at Christ’s return for the church.
We also believe that at death the souls of the lost go to hell, where they remain until they are brought before Christ at the Great White Throne final judgment to be judged according to their works and cast into the lake of fire, there to remain eternally.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the redeemed at the premillennial (pretribulational) return of Christ for His church, when the souls and spirits of those who have died will be reunited with their bodies, now immortal, and that believers who are alive at that time, their bodies likewise transformed into immortality, will be caught up together with them to meet Christ in the air, ever to be with Him.
We believe in the personal, bodily return of our Lord Jesus Christ to rescue Israel at Armageddon and to establish His millennial kingdom, reigning over this earth from His father David’s throne in Jerusalem, and that His redeemed will reign with Him In resurrected bodies for 1,000 years.
Salvation
We Have Lost Our Way
We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way (Isaiah 53:6)
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)
For the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23)
Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgement (Hebrews 9:27)
God Has Opened A Way
For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)
For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. (1 Peter 3:18)
YOU can be saved!
You can be made right before God because Jesus Christ died to pay the penalty for your sins. The way is open. The choice is yours. Simply recognize that your sin separates you from a holy God. Realize that God loves you and believe that Jesus Christ died for you and rose again from the grave. Turn from your sins in true repentance and receive Jesus into your life by faith. Invite Him to be your Savior and Lord.
