< BACK TO OUTLINE Previous Next III. The Church — God’s People and Purpose 12. The Church, Mission, and Eternity We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers who have been redeemed by His blood and born again through faith in Him. Jesus is the Head of the Church, and every believer is a vital part of His body. The Church exists to glorify God, make disciples, and carry out the Great Commission — proclaiming the gospel to all nations. We believe in the future resurrection of the dead and the eternal destiny of all people. Those who belong to Christ will be raised to eternal life with glorified bodies, while those who reject Him will face eternal separation from God. This hope of resurrection and the reality of judgment call us to live in holiness, share the gospel with urgency, and look forward to the day when Christ will make all things new. Scripture References: Matthew 28:18-20; Ephesians 1:22-23; 1 Corinthians 15:51-54; Revelation 21:1-4 Expanded Explanation: The Church is not a building but a living body united under one Head — Jesus Christ. Every believer, redeemed by His blood, is joined together in spiritual fellowship through the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:12–13). This unity crosses all boundaries of culture, race, and background. Christ calls His Church to continue His mission: to make disciples, baptize believers, and teach them to walk in His commands. The Church exists to glorify God on earth by representing His kingdom through love, truth, and service. Our mission is rooted in eternity. The resurrection assures us that death is not the end but the doorway to eternal life (John 11:25–26). Believers will one day share in Christ’s glory with renewed, imperishable bodies, while unbelief leads to eternal separation from Him. This truth gives meaning to both our worship and our witness. Every act of service and every soul reached matters forever because the Church stands as God’s instrument of redemption until Christ returns and makes all things new. 13. Baptism and the Lord’s Suppe r We believe Jesus gave the Church two ordinances: baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Baptism is the outward expression of an inward faith — a public declaration of identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection. The Lord’s Supper is a symbolic meal of bread and cup, reminding us of His sacrifice and the new covenant in His blood. Both are acts of worship and obedience that strengthen our faith and unity as His body. Scripture References: Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:3-4; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; Colossians 2:12 Expanded Explanation: The ordinances of baptism and communion serve as visible expressions of invisible grace. Baptism symbolizes death to the old life and resurrection into new life through Christ (Romans 6:4). It doesn’t save, but it testifies that salvation has already taken place in the heart. Through baptism, believers publicly declare their allegiance to Jesus and their inclusion in His family. The Lord’s Supper (or Communion) reminds us of the price of that salvation — the broken body and shed blood of Christ (1 Corinthians 11:23–26). When we share in the bread and the cup, we proclaim His death until He comes again. This act renews gratitude, repentance, and unity among believers. Together, these ordinances keep the Church centered on the gospel: we have died with Christ, been raised with Christ, and now live to honor Him. 14. Worship and Prayer We believe worship is our right response to who God is and what He has done. It is more than music — it is a lifestyle of love, surrender, and obedience. Corporate worship unites believers in adoration and gratitude, centering our hearts on God’s presence. Prayer is our ongoing conversation with God, aligning our will with His and inviting His power to work in our lives and the world. Scripture References: John 4:23-24; Psalm 95:6; Philippians 4:6-7; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Expanded Explanation: Worship begins in the heart long before it reaches our lips. True worship is a response to revelation — seeing God for who He is and responding with reverence, joy, and surrender. Jesus taught that worship must be “in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24), meaning it is both heartfelt and grounded in God’s Word. Music is a beautiful expression of worship, but obedience, generosity, service, and prayer are equally acts of worship when done for God’s glory (Romans 12:1). Prayer is the heartbeat of worship. It’s not just asking things from God but aligning our hearts with His purposes. In prayer, we exchange anxiety for peace (Philippians 4:6–7) and weakness for strength. Personal prayer deepens intimacy with God; corporate prayer unites the body in faith. When the Church prays and worships in unity, God’s presence transforms hearts, renews communities, and advances His kingdom on earth. 15. The Gifts and Fruit of the Spirit We believe the Holy Spirit empowers every believer with spiritual gifts for the glory of God and the good of others. These gifts are to be exercised in love, humility, and order, always pointing people to Jesus. The true evidence of the Spirit’s presence is the fruit of the Spirit — Christlike character formed in us as we walk by the Spirit each day. Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 12:4-7; Romans 12:6-8; Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Peter 4:10-11 Expanded Explanation: The Holy Spirit equips every believer with gifts that strengthen the Church and advance God’s mission in the world. These include gifts such as teaching, serving, encouraging, giving, leading, showing mercy, healing, prophecy, tongues, and interpretation of tongues (Romans 12:6–8; 1 Corinthians 12:8–11). Each gift is distributed by the Spirit as He wills, and all are meant to work together in harmony for the common good. While the gifts display the Spirit’s power, the fruit of the Spirit displays His nature. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22–23) mark a life surrendered to God. Gifts without fruit can become prideful; fruit without service can become passive. The Spirit desires both—power and purity, expression and character—so that together the people of God reflect the beauty and truth of Jesus Christ. Previous Next

< BACK TO OUTLINE Previous Next II. Humanity — Our Condition and Redemption 6. Humanity and Sin We believe every person is created in the image of God with dignity and worth, yet all have sinned and fallen short of His glory. Sin is rebellion against God that separates us from Him and corrupts every part of human life. We are powerless to save ourselves and in need of God’s mercy and grace. Scripture References: Genesis 1:26-27; Romans 3:23; Isaiah 53:6; Romans 6:23 Expanded Explanation: Humanity was created to reflect God’s image — to know Him, love Him, and steward His creation. This divine image (Genesis 1:26–27) gives every person immeasurable worth, yet it also carries a calling: to live in relationship with our Creator. Sin shattered that relationship. The first humans chose independence from God (Genesis 3), and ever since, sin has infected every heart and system of the world. Sin is not merely doing bad things; it is a condition of the heart that resists God’s authority and seeks self-rule (Jeremiah 17:9). Because of sin, we are spiritually dead and unable to reach God by our own effort (Ephesians 2:1–3). But God’s mercy meets us in that brokenness. Recognizing our sin is not meant to produce shame but to drive us toward grace — the only power that can cleanse and restore the image of God within us. 7. Repentance and Forgiveness We believe repentance is both the doorway into salvation and the ongoing posture of a believer’s heart. True repentance is turning from sin and turning to God in faith, trusting His mercy and grace. Forgiveness is God’s gracious response through the blood of Jesus Christ, cleansing us from guilt and restoring fellowship with Him and others. Scripture References: Acts 3:19; 1 John 1:9; Proverbs 28:13; Psalm 32:1-2 Expanded Explanation: Repentance is more than regret — it’s a change of direction and desire. The Greek word metanoia literally means “to change one’s mind.” It’s the moment when a person stops running from God and starts running toward Him. Repentance is not a single act but a lifelong rhythm for every believer (Luke 9:23). As the Holy Spirit convicts, we respond by confessing sin, renouncing it, and aligning our hearts again with God’s truth. Forgiveness flows from the cross, not from our performance. Because Jesus bore our sins in His body (1 Peter 2:24), believers stand completely cleansed and restored before God. This same forgiveness also compels us to forgive others (Matthew 6:14–15). Repentance keeps our hearts soft; forgiveness keeps our relationships whole. Together, they mark a life continually shaped by grace. 8. Salvation in Christ We believe salvation is God’s gracious gift, offered to all through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is received by grace through faith — not by good works or religion. All who repent and believe in Christ are forgiven, made new, and given eternal life. Salvation marks both a new birth and a lifelong journey of following Jesus in faith and obedience. Scripture References: John 3:16; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:4-7 Expanded Explanation: Salvation is the gracious act of God by which He rescues humanity from sin and its consequences, restores relationship with Himself, and grants eternal life through Jesus Christ. It is wholly accomplished by the finished work of Christ on the cross and received by faith, not earned by human merit. By His death and resurrection, Jesus broke the power of sin and conquered death, opening the way for all who believe to be forgiven and made new (Romans 3:23–24; Titus 3:4–7). Those who repent and place their trust in Christ are justified by faith, adopted into God’s family, and indwelt by the Holy Spirit. Salvation brings both assurance and responsibility—believers are called to live out their faith in obedience and holiness. While salvation is God’s gracious gift received by faith, Scripture warns that a person can turn away from Christ through persistent unbelief and rebellion (Hebrews 6:4–6; 10:26–29). Therefore, believers are called to continue in faith and obedience, remaining steadfast to the end (Colossians 1:23). Grace does not give license to sin but empowers believers to live transformed lives that reflect the righteousness and love of Christ (Romans 6:1–4; Titus 2:11–12). 9. The Blood of Christ and Atonement We believe the shed blood of Jesus Christ is the full payment for sin and the foundation of our salvation. On the cross, the sinless Son of God bore the judgment we deserved, satisfying divine justice and reconciling us to the Father. His sacrifice was once for all, complete and sufficient. His blood continues to cleanse and sanctify us as we walk with Him. Scripture References: Romans 5:8-9; Hebrews 9:12-14; 1 Peter 1:18-19; 1 John 1:7 Expanded Explanation: The shedding of Jesus’ blood is not merely symbolic — it is the very means by which we are reconciled to God. From the sacrifices of the Old Testament to the cross of Calvary, Scripture declares that “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22). In His perfect obedience, Jesus became the spotless Lamb of God (John 1:29), fulfilling every shadow and promise of the Law. His atonement satisfied both the justice and mercy of God. Justice demanded sin be punished; mercy desired sinners be forgiven. The cross accomplished both. Now, through faith in Christ, believers are justified — declared righteous before God (Romans 5:9). Yet the blood of Christ also continues its work, sanctifying us daily as we walk in fellowship with Him. Every communion table reminds us: our hope rests not in our effort, but in His finished sacrifice. 10. Grace and Faith We believe we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Grace is God’s unearned favor that rescues and restores us; faith is our wholehearted trust in Jesus and His finished work. Good works do not earn salvation but naturally flow from a heart transformed by grace. We live each day dependent on God’s grace, walking by faith, and growing through the Spirit’s power. Scripture References: Ephesians 2:8-10; Romans 5:1-2; Galatians 2:20; Titus 2:11-12 Expanded Explanation: Grace is the heartbeat of the gospel. It means God initiates what we could never accomplish on our own. Salvation begins with grace, continues by grace, and will be completed by grace (Philippians 1:6). Faith, then, is our response — not mere belief in facts, but trust in a Person. It is leaning the full weight of our life upon Christ and His finished work (Romans 4:3–5). Grace and faith always produce transformation. When God’s unmerited favor grips the heart, it compels obedience and good works — not as a means to earn acceptance, but as a joyful expression of it (James 2:17–18). Grace removes boasting; faith removes fear. Together they form the foundation for a life that rests fully in Christ, confident that “His grace is sufficient” (2 Corinthians 12:9). 11. Sanctification and Holiness We believe sanctification is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit that sets believers apart from sin and shapes them into the image of Christ. It begins at salvation and continues throughout life as we yield daily to the Spirit, obey God’s Word, and grow in maturity. Holiness is not achieved by human effort but produced by the Spirit in those who walk in obedience and love. Scripture References: Romans 12:1-2; 2 Corinthians 3:18; 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4; Philippians 1:6 Expanded Explanation: Sanctification is both an event and a journey. At the moment of salvation, believers are set apart as God’s own (1 Corinthians 6:11). From that point forward, the Holy Spirit works continually to conform us to the likeness of Christ (Romans 8:29). This process involves both divine power and human cooperation — God works in us, and we respond in faith and obedience (Philippians 2:12–13). Holiness is not about perfectionism but about transformation. It’s learning to desire what God desires and to reflect His character in everyday life. Spiritual growth takes time, often through testing and surrender. The more we abide in Christ (John 15:4–5), the more His life is formed in us. True holiness is never cold or prideful — it is humble, loving, and Spirit-filled, showing the world what God’s grace can do in a yielded life. Previous Next

< BACK TO OUTLINE Previous Next V. God’s Design — Family, Life, and Society 19. Marriage, Family, and Sexuality We believe every person is created in God’s image with dignity and worth. God designed humanity as male and female and reserved sexual intimacy for the covenant marriage between one man and one woman. Marriage reflects the relationship between Christ and His Church and provides the foundation for family and community life. Because of sin, all people experience brokenness in their desires, yet through Jesus Christ we can be forgiven, healed, and empowered to live in holiness. Scripture References: Genesis 1:27; Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:4-6; Ephesians 5:31-32 Expanded Explanation: From the beginning, God created humanity in His image and designed marriage as a sacred covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24). This union is not merely a social contract but a divine reflection of Christ’s relationship with His Church (Ephesians 5:25–32). Within marriage, God provides companionship, sexual intimacy, and the context for raising children in faith. Sexuality, when lived within God’s design, is a gift that expresses covenant love, unity, and mutual self-giving. Outside that design, it leads to distortion and pain. Scripture calls all believers—married or single—to live in purity and self-control, honoring God with their bodies (1 Thessalonians 4:3–5). Though humanity’s desires have been corrupted by sin, the gospel offers both forgiveness and transformation. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we are not bound by our past or by cultural redefinitions of gender and sexuality. In Christ, brokenness is met with grace, and holiness becomes not a burden but a joy — the freedom to live as God originally intended. 20. The Sanctity of Life We believe all human life is sacred and created in the image of God, from conception to natural death. God alone is the giver and sustainer of life; therefore, every person—born or unborn, healthy or disabled, young or old—has inherent value. We affirm God’s call to protect, cherish, and defend life, extending compassion and hope to those who have experienced loss, abortion, or suffering through the grace of Jesus Christ. Scripture References: Psalm 139:13-16; Jeremiah 1:5; John 10:10; Deuteronomy 30:19-20 Expanded Explanation: Human life is sacred because it bears the image of its Creator. From the moment of conception, each person is known and loved by God (Psalm 139:13–16; Jeremiah 1:5). Life is not an accident of biology but a divine gift entrusted to us. Because of this truth, followers of Christ are called to defend and value life at every stage — from the unborn child to the elderly, from the healthy to the vulnerable. Jesus came that we might have life “more abundantly” (John 10:10), showing us the heart of the Father who delights in His creation. Upholding the sanctity of life also means extending grace to those who carry guilt or pain from past decisions. The cross of Christ offers complete forgiveness and renewal for every heart that turns to Him. Our response to this truth is both conviction and compassion — conviction that life is sacred and cannot be devalued, and compassion that welcomes and restores those who have been wounded. In doing so, the Church becomes a refuge of mercy and a witness to the Creator who gives life and redeems it. 21. Human Identity and Dignity We believe every human being is created by God with unique purpose and value. Our true identity is not found in personal achievement, social status, or self-definition, but in being His creation and, through faith in Christ, His redeemed children. We reject all attempts to devalue, exploit, or redefine what it means to be human. In a culture of confusion, we stand for the dignity of every person and the hope of restored identity through the gospel of Jesus Christ. Scripture References: Genesis 1:27; Psalm 8:3-5; Galatians 3:26-28; 2 Corinthians 5:17 Expanded Explanation: In a world that constantly redefines identity, Scripture anchors us in an unchanging truth: we are created by God, in His image, and for His glory. Our worth is not determined by what we do or how we feel, but by who we belong to. The image of God (Imago Dei) gives every person—regardless of background, ability, or experience—equal dignity and worth (Psalm 8:3–5). Sin distorts that image, leading people to seek identity apart from God in performance, possessions, gender, or power. But through Christ, the image is restored. Those who place their faith in Jesus become new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17) and are adopted as sons and daughters of God (Galatians 3:26–28). The Church must speak truth with grace in a culture that is confused about what it means to be human. We affirm that God made humanity male and female, both reflecting His nature, and that every person is invited into a redeemed identity in Christ. This conviction calls us not to condemnation but to compassion — pointing people toward the One who gives true worth, lasting purpose, and eternal hope. Previous Next
