THE CHRISTIAN HUB

STATEMENT OF FAITH

 

GOD: We believe there is only one true, living eternal God that exists in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (John 10:30; John 1:1; Revelations 1:8; John 17:3)

 

JESUS CHRIST: We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father through a virgin birth by divine conception. (Colossians 1:15; John 1:14; Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18-25)

 

HOLY SPIRIT: We believe in the person of Holy Spirit, that He dwells in each follower of Jesus Christ. We believe Holy Spirit equips and guides believers as they transform into becoming Christ-like. (2 Corinthians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 3:16; John 4:24)

 

THE BIBLE: We believe that all scripture is God-breathed and infallible. It is to be used for teaching, empowering, guidance and building of faith. (2 Timothy 3:16; Proverbs 30:5; Romans 10:17)

 

SALVATION: We believe salvation is only available through Jesus Christ. His death, burial and resurrection were for the purpose of reconciling man back to the Father after the fall of man. This reconciliation is by faith not works. Believe that Jesus was crucified on a cross, buried in a tomb and raised from the dead and man is saved by believing in his heart and confessing with his mouth. (Genesis 3:1-24; John 14:6; Ephesians 2:8; Acts 4:12; Romans 10:9-10)

 

BAPTISM: We believe baptism helps believers identify with Jesus Christ as He led by example on earth. We believe it is symbolic of the death, burial and resurrection into a new life through Jesus Christ giving believers a sense of a fresh start and new life.  (Matthew 3:13-17; Romans 6:3-4; Galatians 3:27)

 

COMMUNION: We believe in communion to be taken in remembrance of the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Communion is to be taken as often as a believer desires to partake. (Luke 22:19; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)

 

ETERNITY: We believe in eternity in heaven or eternity in hell. Salvation through Christ leads us to eternity with God otherwise we are forever separated from God. (Romans 6:23; Revelations 20:11-15; John 3:16) 

 

FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY: We believe in the five-fold ministry offices of the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. We believe these offices are appointed by Jesus Christ and mandated to equip the saints for the work of ministry and the building of the body of Christ. (Ephesians 4:11-13)

 

SPIRITUAL GIFTS: We believe spiritual gifts have been given to all believers. Spiritual gifts are to be used to lead, serve, encourage, edify, guide, care for others and demonstrate the power of God. (1 Corinthians 12:4-11; Romans 12:6-8; 2 Timothy 1:6)
