Statement of Faith

With any type of forum or group on the Internet, it is important to understand their belief system.  It is important to evaluate the Statement of Faith to see if it is what you believe in prior to joining.  The Statement of Faith in conjunction with the Welcome Page and the About us page are similar to the fine print of any contract that you would sign.  Know what you are signing up for prior to clicking on the submit button.

Here is our Statement of Faith for your perusal.

Trinity: We believe that the Bible declares there is one true and living God. In this Godhead, there is a trinity of one substance and power, and co-eternal, namely the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

  Matthew 28:19~”Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded of you.  And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” 

2 Corinthians 13:14~May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

Jesus Christ: The Bible declares that Jesus Christ is truly God and truly man, in whom the divine and human natures are perfectly and inseparably united.

John 1:14~The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.  We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Acts 1:3~After his suffering, he showed himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive.  He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.

Colossians 2:9~For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form…

Hebrews 2:16,17~For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abrahm’s descendants.  For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.

Hebrews 4:14-16~Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.  For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are yet was without sin.  Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

Bible: The Holy Scriptures in their entirety are the inspired, inerrant, written Word of God. They alone contain the will of God as far as it is necessary for us to know it for our salvation, so that whatsoever is not contained therein, nor can be proved thereby, is not to be enjoined on any as an article of faith, or as a doctrine essential to salvation.

2 Timothy 3:15-17~and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.  All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Peter 1:19-21~And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well tp pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.  Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophets own interpretation.  For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Depravity: The Bible declares that through the transgression of Adam, man is fallen from original righteousness and apart from the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, is not only entirely destitute of holiness, but is bent toward evil, and except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Man in his own strength, without divine grace, cannot do good works pleasing and acceptable to God.

Genesis 6:5~The Lord saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.

John3:3-7~In reply Jesus declared, “I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”  “How can a man be born when he is old?”  Nicodemus asked.  “Surely he can not enter a second time into his mother’s womb to be born!”  Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.  Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.  You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’

Ephesians 2;1~As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sin, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.

Ephesians 2:8-9~For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God–not by works, so that no one can boast.

Romans 5:8~But God commandeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Justification: The Bible declares that we are never accounted righteous before God through our works or merit, but that those who truly repent of their sins are justified or accounted righteous before God only by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ

Isaiah 64:6~All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.

Galatians 2:16~know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ.  so we too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified.
