Hello. I am Joe Pagano Jr., Pastor of Middletown Area Bible Church. The church was born July 12, 1977.
MABC is an exciting and vivacious ministry. The church is composed of all ages. God’s basic unit of society, the family, is honored, encouraged, and greatly strengthened through our ministry.
Every individual who attends our church is loved and cared for in all ways possible. Our Lord told us to “bear ye one another’s burdens…”
I am excited about being able to meet you in this short note. However, I would rather meet you in person.
How about coming to visit, giving me a call, or sending an email so we can meet.
Thanks for taking time to read this note and the rest of this website.
God bless you!
OUR GOAL HIS GLORY
- The Bible, preserved in the King James 1611 Version, is the infallible, inerrant, inspired Word of God.
- God is one Lord and has manifest Himself in three persons.
- God created heaven and earth In six literal, twenty-four hour days.
- Man sinned against his creator in the person of Adam. This brought separation and condemnation.
- All sin is against a thrice holy God.
- Sin results in physical death and Hell and a second death (the Lake of Fire).
- Sin’s penalty is separation from God in this life and the next.
- Sinful man cannot enter the home of a sinless, perfect God.
- The Lord Jesus Christ is perfect God and perfect man.
- The Lord Jesus Christ, the second person of The Triune God, became man, lived a sinless life, shed his precious blood, suffered a terrible death, and bodily rose 3 days later for all the sins of men.
- The Lord Jesus Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection signed, sealed, and delivered salvation to all who will receive Him.
- The Lord Jesus Christ returned to Heaven after eating, drinking, and talking with men for forty days after His resurrection.
- The Lord Jesus Christ will return in the air for His church – soon.
- Those who die in Christ are immediately ushered into Heaven.
- Those who die without Christ are immediately condemned to a burning Hell.
