< BACK TO OUTLINE Previous Next I. God — His Nature and Revelation 1. The Nature and Attributes of God We believe God is infinite, eternal, and unchanging in His nature and character. He is all-knowing, all-powerful, and ever-present. God is holy, righteous, just, and true — yet also loving, gracious, and merciful. His wisdom is perfect, His purposes unshakable, and His glory fills the heavens and the earth. Everything He does flows from who He is. Scripture References: Exodus 34:6-7; Psalm 90:2; Isaiah 40:28; James 1:17 Expanded Explanation: God’s nature stands at the center of everything we believe. All of creation exists because of who He is, not simply what He does. Scripture calls Him I AM WHO I AM (Exodus 3:14), revealing His self-existence and independence from all created things. Unlike humanity, who changes and grows, God’s character never shifts. His holiness reveals His utter purity and moral perfection, while His love expresses His desire for relationship and redemption. These attributes do not compete within Him; they coexist in perfect harmony. To know God rightly is to worship Him deeply. When believers see His majesty in creation (Psalm 19:1) and His compassion in salvation (John 3:16), they begin to trust that His ways are always good—even when not understood. Studying His attributes strengthens faith, reshapes our view of the world, and calls us to reflect His character in how we live (1 Peter 1:15-16). 2. The Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit We believe in one God who exists eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — three distinct persons, equal in divinity and purpose, united in perfect love. The Father is the source of all creation and the author of salvation. The Son, Jesus Christ, is fully God and fully man, who came to reveal the Father, redeem humanity, and reign forever as Lord. The Holy Spirit is the promised Helper who convicts of sin, gives new life, and empowers believers to live in holiness and truth. Scripture References: Matthew 28:19; John 1:1-3, 14; 2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 4:4-6 Expanded Explanation: The doctrine of the Trinity reveals the mystery of the one true God who exists eternally in three Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Though the word Trinity does not appear in Scripture, the truth is woven throughout it. In Genesis 1:26, God says, “Let Us make man in Our image,” hinting at divine plurality within unity. At Jesus’ baptism (Matthew 3:16-17), the Father speaks, the Son is baptized, and the Spirit descends—all present and distinct, yet one God. Each Person of the Trinity participates in our redemption: the Father plans salvation (Ephesians 1:3-6), the Son accomplishes it through His death and resurrection (John 19:30), and the Spirit applies it to believers’ hearts (Titus 3:5-6). Understanding this harmony leads us to humility and worship. The Trinity shows that God Himself is relational; 3. Jesus Christ — The Son of God We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, fully divine and fully human. Conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, He lived a sinless life, revealed the Father’s heart and truth, and willingly gave His life as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. He rose bodily from the dead, ascended to heaven, and now reigns at the right hand of the Father as Lord of all. He is the only Savior and mediator between God and humanity, and He will one day return to judge the living and the dead and to establish His eternal kingdom. Scripture references: John 1:1–14; Luke 1:30–35; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Acts 1:9–11; Philippians 2:5–11; 1 Timothy 2:5; Revelation 19:11–16 Expanded Explanation We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Word made flesh—the second Person of the Trinity who was with God in the beginning and is Himself fully God (John 1:1–3). Conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Luke 1:30–35; Matthew 1:18–23), He became truly human while remaining fully divine, revealing the fullness of God’s nature (Colossians 2:9). Jesus lived a sinless life and perfectly obeyed the Father’s will (Hebrews 4:15; John 14:9). Through His death on the cross, He bore our sins, satisfying divine justice and reconciling us to God (Isaiah 53:5–6; Romans 5:8–11; 2 Corinthians 5:21). He rose bodily from the grave on the third day, conquering sin and death (Luke 24:1–7; 1 Corinthians 15:3–8), and later ascended into heaven, where He now reigns at the Father’s right hand as Lord and intercessor for His people (Acts 1:9–11; Romans 8:34; Ephesians 1:20–23). Salvation is found in Christ alone, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12; John 14:6). All who trust in Him receive forgiveness and eternal life (John 3:16; Romans 10:9–10). We also affirm that Jesus will return in glory to judge the living and the dead (Matthew 24:30–31; 2 Timothy 4:1). On that day, every wrong will be made right, and all wickedness will be judged in righteousness (Revelation 20:11–15). Those who belong to Him will enter eternal joy (Revelation 21:1–4), while those who reject Him will face eternal separation from God (2 Thessalonians 1:7–10; Matthew 25:31–46). His return will destroy evil once and for all (Revelation 19:11–16) and establish His everlasting kingdom of righteousness and peace—the blessed hope of all believers (Titus 2:13). 4. The Holy Spirit — God’s Presence and Power We believe the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Trinity—fully God, co-equal and co-eternal with the Father and the Son. He convicts the world of sin, regenerates those who believe, and dwells within every follower of Christ. The Spirit empowers believers for holy living, bestows spiritual gifts, and guides the Church in truth and mission. Scripture references: Genesis 1:2; John 14:16–17; John 16:7–15; Acts 1:8; Romans 8:9–16; 1 Corinthians 12:4–11; Galatians 5:22–25 Expanded Explanation We believe the Holy Spirit is the divine presence of God—co-equal with the Father and the Son (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). He was active in creation (Genesis 1:2), inspired the Scriptures (2 Peter 1:21), and continues God’s work in the world today. The Spirit convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:7–8), draws people to Christ, and brings new life through regeneration (Titus 3:5–6). He dwells within every believer, sealing them as God’s own and producing spiritual fruit that reflects the character of Jesus (Romans 8:9–11; Galatians 5:22–25). The Holy Spirit empowers believers for holy living and bold witness (Acts 1:8), gives spiritual gifts for the building up of the Church (1 Corinthians 12:4–11; Ephesians 4:11–13), and guides God’s people into all truth (John 16:13). He comforts, teaches, and intercedes according to the will of God (John 14:26; Romans 8:26–27). The Spirit’s presence is the guarantee of our salvation and the power behind the Church’s mission (Ephesians 1:13–14). Through Him, believers are transformed, the gospel advances, and Christ is glorified in all things. 5. The Bible: God’s Word We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is completely true and trustworthy, revealing God’s character, His plan of salvation, and His will for how we should live. The Old and New Testaments together tell one story of redemption centered on Jesus Christ. Therefore, Scripture is our final authority for faith and practice, living and active to teach, correct, and equip God’s people for every good work. Scripture References: 2 Timothy 3:16-17; Psalm 119:105; Hebrews 4:12; 2 Peter 1:20-21 Expanded Explanation: The Bible is not merely a collection of ancient writings—it is the living voice of God speaking through human authors. The Holy Spirit inspired every word, ensuring that what they wrote was both fully divine and fully human in expression. Jesus Himself affirmed the authority of Scripture (Matthew 5:17-18) and used it as His defense against temptation (Matthew 4:1-11). All of Scripture points to Christ (Luke 24:27), weaving one continuous story of redemption from Genesis to Revelation. Because it is God-breathed (2 Timothy 3:16), the Bible carries divine power to transform hearts and renew minds. It teaches us who God is, exposes sin, offers grace, and equips believers to live faithfully in every generation. In a world filled with shifting opinions, God’s Word remains the unchanging standard of truth. Those who build their lives on it stand firm, like a house on solid rock (Matthew 7:24-25).

< BACK TO OUTLINE Previous Next VII. The World — Our Stewardship and Witness 26. Creation, Stewardship, and the Environment We believe God created the heavens and the earth, and all creation reflects His glory. Humanity was given the responsibility to care for and cultivate the earth as wise stewards, not owners. We affirm our calling to use and protect God’s creation responsibly, recognizing that the world is entrusted to us for provision and for future generations. Though creation is broken because of sin, we look forward to the day when God will restore all things through Jesus Christ. Scripture References: Genesis 1:1, 28; Psalm 24:1; Romans 8:19-21; Revelation 21:5** Expanded Explanation: Creation itself is the first revelation of God’s glory. The heavens declare His majesty, and the earth displays His craftsmanship (Psalm 19:1). Humanity was placed in the garden not as owners but as caretakers, commissioned to “work it and watch over it” (Genesis 2:15). Stewardship reflects worship — caring for what God has made honors the One who made it. Sin brought disorder to creation, resulting in decay, disaster, and misuse of the world’s resources (Romans 8:20–22). Yet the command to steward the earth remains. Believers should approach creation with gratitude, humility, and responsibility — conserving what sustains life, cultivating what brings flourishing, and refusing to exploit what God has called good. Environmental care is not a political issue first; it is a spiritual one. The earth belongs to the Lord (Psalm 24:1), and one day Christ will restore it to perfection. Until then, we manage His creation faithfully as an act of worship and witness to His coming kingdom. 27. Justice, Poverty, and the Value of Work We believe God cares deeply for the poor, the oppressed, and the marginalized, and He calls His people to do the same. Work is a gift from God that provides purpose, provision, and a way to serve others. We affirm both our responsibility to care for those in need and the dignity of honest work, knowing that generosity and integrity reflect the heart of God. In all things, we are called to live with compassion, diligence, and gratitude, trusting God as our provider. Scripture References: Proverbs 14:31; Micah 6:8; Colossians 3:23-24; James 2:14-17** Expanded Explanation: God’s concern for justice includes practical compassion for the poor and the marginalized. Throughout Scripture, He defends the cause of the orphan, the widow, and the foreigner (Deuteronomy 10:18). To ignore those in need is to ignore the heart of God (Proverbs 14:31). Followers of Christ are called to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with Him (Micah 6:8). At the same time, work itself is part of God’s design. It was given before the fall as a means of purpose and stewardship (Genesis 2:15). Through work, we contribute to the good of others and reflect God’s creativity. The dignity of work reminds us that every honest vocation can honor God when done with excellence and integrity (Colossians 3:23–24). Justice and compassion are not opposites—they are partners. The Church’s mission is to meet both spiritual and physical needs, empowering people toward wholeness rather than dependency. Generosity, when guided by wisdom, displays the gospel and declares that God alone is our provider and sustainer. 28. Wealth, Possessions, and Generosity We believe everything we have comes from God and is entrusted to us to use for His glory. Earthly wealth and possessions are temporary, but they become eternal investments when used to bless others and advance God’s kingdom. We affirm the call to live with contentment and gratitude, practicing wise stewardship and joyful generosity. It is more blessed to give than to receive, and we gladly offer our time, talents, and treasures to the Lord. Scripture References: Malachi 3:10; Matthew 6:19-21; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8; Acts 20:35** Expanded Explanation: Stewardship begins with recognizing that everything we own ultimately belongs to God (Psalm 24:1). Wealth is not evil, but it is a trust that tests the heart. Jesus warned that we cannot serve both God and money (Matthew 6:24). Possessions become dangerous when they possess us, yet powerful when used for God’s purposes. Generosity is the antidote to greed. Giving aligns our hearts with heaven, storing treasure where moth and rust cannot destroy (Matthew 6:19–21). Whether through tithing, offerings, or acts of charity, believers express faith by releasing what they have to bless others. Paul reminds us that God loves a cheerful giver, not because He needs our resources, but because giving forms our character (2 Corinthians 9:7). Wise stewardship combines contentment and purpose. We work diligently, spend responsibly, and give generously, knowing that the measure of our life is not what we keep but what we invest in eternity. 29. Science, Technology, and Faith We believe all truth is God’s truth, and that science and technology, when rightly understood, can reveal the wisdom and majesty of our Creator. Faith and reason are not enemies but partners in the pursuit of truth. We affirm the call to use knowledge and innovation responsibly, guided by humility and integrity, for the good of humanity and the glory of God. Our ultimate hope is not in human achievement but in Christ, who is the source of all wisdom. Scripture References: Psalm 19:1-2; Proverbs 2:6; Colossians 1:16-17; James 1:5** Expanded Explanation: Science and faith both seek truth — one explores God’s creation, the other His revelation. When rightly understood, they complement rather than contradict each other. The physical laws that science discovers were spoken into existence by the same God who inspired Scripture (Colossians 1:16–17). Human innovation reflects the creative image of God, yet it must remain under His authority. Knowledge without humility can become dangerous. Technology, though powerful, must serve love, justice, and life rather than pride or profit. Believers are called to engage in science, medicine, and technology with integrity, seeking solutions that uphold human dignity and care for creation. Faith and reason are both gifts from God. True wisdom is not found in human progress alone but in reverence for the Lord (Proverbs 9:10). As we explore creation and harness knowledge, we remember that our hope is not in invention but in redemption—the restoration of all things through Christ. 30. Christ, Government, and Politics We believe Jesus Christ is King over all nations, and our ultimate allegiance belongs to Him alone. Earthly governments are established by God to promote justice and peace, and believers are called to honor and pray for those in authority. While we engage in civic life with integrity and truth, the Church is not bound to any political party or ideology. Our hope is not in politics but in Christ and His kingdom, which will endure forever. Scripture References: Romans 13:1-2; 1 Timothy 2:1-2; Philippians 3:20; Isaiah 9:6-7** Expanded Explanation: God ordains government as part of His common grace—to restrain evil, promote order, and preserve justice (Romans 13:1–4). Christians should respect authority and pray for leaders, recognizing that God can work through even imperfect systems (1 Timothy 2:1–2). Yet our ultimate allegiance is to a higher kingdom—one that is not of this world (John 18:36). Engaging in public life is part of our witness, but the Church must not confuse the kingdom of God with any earthly agenda. Political ideologies shift; Christ’s reign does not. We are called to speak truth to power, defend righteousness, and model civility and compassion in every discussion. When believers act with integrity, justice, and humility in civic matters, they shine as salt and light in a divided world. Our hope rests not in elected leaders but in the coming King whose government will know no end (Isaiah 9:7). 31. Religious Liberty and Freedom of Conviction We believe genuine faith cannot be forced, for God alone is Lord of the conscience. Religious liberty is a gift from God that allows His people to worship, serve, and live according to His Word. We affirm the freedom of all people to seek and follow God without coercion, and the Church’s right to believe and teach according to Scripture. While we honor governing authorities, we will obey God above all when human commands conflict with His Word. Scripture References: Acts 5:29; Romans 14:5; Galatians 5:1; 1 Peter 2:13-17** Expanded Explanation: Religious liberty flows from the nature of God Himself. He does not force worship but invites it through love and conviction. True faith cannot be imposed by law or government; it must arise from a willing heart transformed by grace. This freedom is both a human right and a spiritual responsibility. Christians honor governing authorities (Romans 13:1) yet must also discern when obedience to God requires civil disobedience (Acts 5:29). The Church must be free to teach, preach, and live according to Scripture—even when doing so conflicts with cultural norms or political pressure. Protecting religious liberty is not about privilege but about mission. When believers live faithfully in the public square, they defend the dignity of conscience for all people, ensuring that the gospel can continue to be proclaimed freely until Christ returns.
