About Our ChurchThe Church of the Open Bible of Greenville, Maine, began in 1969 with the help of Christ-for-the-Lumberjacks-Mission. The Church of the Open Bible is an evangelical, fundamental, Bible believing church with no denominational affiliation. The church is located on the corner of Rte. 15 at 8 Sherwood Avenue in Greenville, Maine. We are non-traditional in many ways, neckties are not a general habit and it is common in the summertime to have many people attend dressed in vacation wear. We have an offering box in the back of the sanctuary and except for special gifts, the plate is not passed during services. We worship God with a mixture of Contemporary Praise music and Traditional Hymns. The church desires to have a strong evangelistic and missions outreach as well as Biblical discipleship for new saints. A Council-of-Elders leads the congregation. The immediate vision of the church is to maintain its unity and become obedient to the commission to “make disciples”. About Our PastorPastor Ron and Joanne Reamer have been married for 27 years. They both attended Baptist Bible College of Pennsylvania where they met and following graduation were married. They have served in four churches in Ohio, New Jersey and now in Maine. They have just celebrated their first year of ministry at the Church of the Open Bible. Pastor Ron is currently studying at the Grace Evangelical Seminary in Bangor with the plan of earning his Masters Degree. The Reamers have four children of whom they are very proud.

Let's start with how one comes to a true knowledge of and relationship with, Jesus Christ. It begins with a simple understanding of the gospel1 that Jesus is God,2 who became a Man3 in order to save mankind for everlasting separation from God4 that resulted from man's som.5 Jesus satisfied the perfect justice of God6 by His once-and-for-all payment for the sins of humanity7 through His death on the Cross.8 His resurrection from the dead9 assures the salvation of all those who acknowledge before God their sin10 and their hopelessness in saving themselves,11 and who by grace through faith12 accept Christ's sacrifice on their behalf13 and his free gift of eternal life.14 This is how one is reconciled to God15 and born again spiritually.16 This is how one's relationship with the biblical Jesus Christ17 begins.
