What We Believe and Teach
· We believe that 1 Corinthians
15:3-4 is the gospel of grace given to us today and for the last
(approximately) 2000 years. Believing that truth (simply placing one’s trust in it) is the only way
to obtain salvation.
· We believe that Almighty God
gave us his completed written word. In it he gave the key to understanding it. (2 Timothy 2:15)
· We believe in the one
baptism of Ephesians 4 and 1 Corinthians 12:13 – the baptism by the Holy
Spirit into the Body of Christ.
· We believe that we can do
absolutely nothing to earn God’s favor (Ephesians 2:7-9); that there is nothing
good in us and we deserve to spend
our eternal life in hell because of inheriting Adam’s sin nature (original sin) and
rejecting God’s gift of salvation.
· We believe that in choosing
to trust God’s gift through his Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, we obtain a
heavenly future. (Ephesians 1:3)
· We therefore believe that
members of God’s church, the Body of Christ, will live and serve him in
heavenly places and not in the coming
earthly kingdom to come, reserved for Israel, who will then be a believing
nation and back under God’s program for them. (Rev.
21:12; 22:3)
· We believe the one true
church is neither a building nor a denomination.
· We believe God is waiting
for others to put their trust in the finished work of his Son, for he is building his church. |
