About Cape Baptist Church

The idea of Cape Baptist Church began in 2014 as the Lord began to highlight the growing need for church plants in the US in the heart of Pastor Jimmy, specifically in the Midwest. A decade later the idea took root and New Manna Baptist Church in Marion, NC, under the leadership of Pastor Tony Shirley, sought to plant the only other Independent Baptist Church in Cape.

The heart of Cape Baptist Church is to preach the transforming Gospel of Jesus Christ to every age, every culture, every background of people who will hear us. Although this is just the beginning, we have seen God do amazing things in the lives of Cape residents as the Lord builds this local church in the beautiful river City of Cape Girardeau.

This is the Jackson family Jimmy, Samantha, Alexia, Makenna, Brennan, and Harper!

Pastor Jimmy grew up in a Navy home, relocating every three to four years and never attending any church service until his Junior year of high-school in 1998. He received Christ as his Saviour November 21, 1999, called to preach soon after, and began training for the ministry in 2001. Samantha grew up in a single parent home with a loving Christian father who worked sacrificially to provide her with a Christian education. She received Christ as her Saviour January 6, 2007.

After serving the Lord for twenty years, the Lord led the Jacksons to start a brand new church in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Our family can't wait to meet your family!

The Gospel Message

We live in a world that is gripped by fear. Fear of the unknown. Financial instability. Foreign invasion. Economic disaster. Cancer. The Coronavirus. These are very real concerns in our culture. But Jesus holds out His mighty hand in love, calling us to channel our fear into a complete and confident faith in Him. He is bigger than any threat, wiser than any expert, richer than any recession, and stronger than any disease. No matter what we face, we don’t have to live in fear; we can seek the face of our unchanging God! “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear,” (Psalm 46:1-2). Will you choose to trust in Jesus Christ with your future?

The truth is — there is something far worse coming than the temporal concerns that swirl about us today. The Bible is clear: “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” (Hebrews 9:27). Your soul will go into eternity after this life. Are you ready for this? Every single one of us have been contaminated with sin and quarantined from Heaven. But there is a Cure! That is why I believe God has given you the opportunity to read this virtual Gospel tract — He wants to share with you His loving remedy.

No one is perfect; we have all done bad things — whether it was lying, stealing, cheating, thinking lustful thoughts, being disobedient to your parents, and many other things. The Bible says in Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” We may consider ourselves to be “pretty good” compared to someone else, but each of us falls short of the perfection of God. No matter how hard we try, we will never be perfect.

The Bible says that there is a consequence for sin; and it is death. Romans 6:23 declares, “For the wages of sin is death…” This death is not only a physical death but a spiritual one. According to Revelation 21:8, “death” ultimately refers to spending eternity in Hell: “the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone.” But there is hope!

Though our own sins separate us from God, He does not want anyone to die and go to Hell. Jesus Christ courageously and lovingly went up Calvary’s hill to die on an old rugged cross — to take away our sins and bring us salvation. John 3:16 proclaims, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Jesus willingly shed His sinless blood and gave His life as a sacrifice for you and me. He died, victoriously rose again from the grave, and now freely offers to us the ONLY REMEDY for sin! You cannot buy your way to Heaven, nor can you earn it through other alternatives such as good works or baptism (as other religions teach). It is ONLY through Jesus. God’s Word is clear: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works,” (Ephesians 2:8-9). “For there is NONE OTHER NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we MUST be saved” (Acts 4:12). Jesus says, “I am the way,… no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6).

God promises in Romans 10:13, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Will you repent from your sins, turn to Jesus, and accept His Cure? Jesus stands with His arms opened wide in love, waiting for you to come to Him by faith and accept Him as your personal Saviour! According to the Bible, if you were to receive Jesus, where will you go when you die? The exciting answer is Heaven! But, if you were to reject Jesus and never accept what He did on the Cross for you, where will you spend eternity? The sobering answer is Hell.

Why not call upon the Lord right now and ask Him to save you? You only have Hell to lose and all of Heaven to gain. Please reach out to Pastor Jackson if you would like to talk about this life changing decision.
