We believe

The Bible is God's Holy Word. We believe it has the solutions to man's problems. That's why the Bible is the central focus of our services and our ministry. The Bible is our authority because it is God's communication to man. Through it we learn, not only who God is, but also how to worship, obey, and have fellowship with Him. We learn of His perfect love and his care and concern for us. The Bible says that a church with correct beliefs and practices is "the pillar and ground of the truth" (I Timothy 3:15). We desire to be such a church.

We Believe:
• The inspiration ("God breathed out") of Scripture. The Bible is our final authority for faith and practice.
• The tri-unity: God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• The virgin birth of Jesus Christ.
• The sinfulness of man and his need for salvation.
• The redemptive work of Jesus Christ: His efficacious blood, His death, His burial and resurrection. Man is not saved by his own good works, but only through his trust of Christ as Savior.
• The Second Coming: The pre-tribulational rapture of the church and the pre-millennial return of Christ.
• The eternal salvation of believers: Everlasting life.
• The responsibility of the local church to promote and protect the doctrinal purity of the Body of Christ, and to separate from willful error, false teaching, and sin

About Victory Bible Church!

     In early 2005 a group of people meeting in a home Bible Study, felt lead of God to begin a new church. This new church is for local people who have one authority in view, that being the Bible. The first organizational meeting was held in a borrowed room on McKinley Street in Hazleton, and we used that room for about 4 months and outgrew it. We then used another borrowed location and began looking for a permanent location. The Lord provided our Junedale location in the Fall of 06, and we look forward to our offical launch at the Church. We are constantly reminded of the faithfullness of God as the ministry of Victory Bible Church grows and takes new directions.

     Victory Bible Church was pioneered from a home Bible Study by Pastor Ron Radtke and his wife Chris. Ron studied at Baptist Bible College,Practical Bible Training School,and recieved a BRE from Practical Bible College, with additional studies at Moody Bible Institute and Church Multiplication Training Center. Ron and Chris earlier had an appointment to England with W.E.F. Ministries. Ron was ordained to the Gospel Ministry in 1992,
From our beginnings in a borrowed room on March of 2005, Victory has been built on the foundation of the unchanging Word of God. At the heart of the ministry of Victory is the desire to see people's lives impacted by the love and power of God. The Lord has truly done "exceeding abundantly above all that we could ask or think"; however, we truly believe the best is yet to come. 

   Our mission is to provide a strong local church that is a blessing to our community and where you and your family can grow in faith, love, and service to God. Also, to have a world vision and be a part of the worldwide last days Harvest! We are accomplishing this by supporting missionaries and ministries worldwide through our finances, prayers, resources, and ministry gifts.
If you currently do not have a church home and are looking for a place where you can serve and worship God, we invite you to become a part of the church family here at Victory.
