Who we are in Christ
OUR BELIEFS THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH OTHER EVANGELICAL CHURCHES
- We are committed to the Lordship of Jesus Christ who alone can save people from sin and death and bring them to a glorious eternity with God.
- We are committed to the Bible as the authoritative Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and communicated through the prophets and the apostles.
- We are committed to the sacraments of Baptism and Communion.
- We believe the church exists as group of believers who have been restored to God by His grace through the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ on the cross
- We anticipate the physical return of Jesus who was physically raised from the grave and ascended to heaven after His crucifixion … “Let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price. Revelation 22:17
We are part of a Christ-centered fellowship called the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church.
OUR BELIEFS THAT ARE SPECIFIC TO US AND OUR DENOMINATION
- We are a denomination that affirms a Reformed perspective on the Scriptures and also embraces the Presbyterian form of Government, both of which are based upon our understanding of God’s Word.
- To better understand who we are theologically please go to our denominational website: ARP CHURCH WEBSITE and study the “Governing Documents” under the Resources Menu.
