Faith Baptist Church, Maricopa AZ

Unfortunately, I'm going to have to take issue and disagree with the glowing five star reviews.   This church stands by and uses the KJV, they use the old hymns and stay away from today's contemporary Christian rock music, and they stand by some of the fundamentals of the faith.   This warrants the two stars.   Pastor Zimmerman unfortunately preaches an "easy believism", repeat after me 1-2-3, just believe, once saved always saved, false plan of salvation.   Our son was baptized at Faith Baptist, and repentance was never mentioned or required for initial salvation's sake. Luke 13: 3  He was just asked if he believes.

This church teaches that we are complete in Christ from the moment we believe.   Is this true?   What about living a life of holiness, obedience, separation, and repentance until the end?         Mat 24: 13  Are these required for salvation's sake?   Apparently, not.   Those things may be good and commendable, but are not requirements according to their theology.   This is a false grace/salvation message.   Beware.

Also, not very many people there are very friendly or caring towards one another.   After months of attending, most people were still acting aloof, just making small talk. Very little contact outside of church and very superficial relationships in church. Jesus commanded His people to care for and love one another.   John 13: 34 We did not witness this.

Take a look at Howard Pittman's testimony and listen to a message called,   "What's wrong with today's Gospel", on YouTube.   We live during the Laodicean church age and these messages are very eye opening.   Rev 3: 14-22

Wake up church!
