WHAT WE BELIEVE

We live in shifting times but are rooted in eternal truths, the teachings of Holy Scripture. Here at Christian Fellowship Church we are guided by certain foundational beliefs and shaping values. Our theological foundations include, but aren’t limited to, the following

• Knowable Truth.
  We believe in the accuracy, truth, authority, and power of the Holy Scriptures as the Word of God.
• One God.
  We believe in a personal God who has revealed Himself as One. God exists in three persons–Father, Son and Holy Spirit–each distinct, yet all of One essence.
• Uniqueness of Christ.
  We believe Jesus Christ to be the virgin born Son of God who lived in flesh, died for the sins of the world, was buried, rose again, and ascended to the Father according to the Scriptures.
• Grace Life.
  We believe that the death of Jesus Christ was the final and complete sacrifice for the sins of humanity. Salvation is obtained by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. All who repent of their sins and receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord are born again into eternal life as children of God.
• Indwelling Power.
  We believe that life on earth is to be lived in the power of the Holy Spirit, who indwells believers, enabling them to live distinctive lives in the life and power of Christ.
• God’s People.
  We believe that those who have placed their faith in Christ are knit together in one Body, the Church.  We are a distinctive community of faith that seeks to engage culture on every front with God’s hope and love … a Church for which Christ will personally return.
• The Knowledge of the Holy.
  We think Believers should passionately pursue an intimate relationship with God in response to His great love for us. To know God should be the ultimate goal of mankind.
• Whole-Life Worship.
  More than outward forms, our worship must encompass our entire existence, whereby in all circumstances our words and actions bring glory to God.
• Community of Faith.
  The worldwide Body of Christ functions best in localized communities of believers.  Our priority is to strengthen the lives of people and repair communities so that all people can know the healing power and grace of the Savior.
