What We Believe — Grace Church

REVELATION

We believe that it is possible for man to know God, but only to the extent God reveals Himself to man, for apart from the divine self-revelation, finite man cannot know the infinite God. God has further revealed Himself through the incarnation of His Son, through the Holy Scripture, and to all people through creation and conscience.

SCRIPTURE

We believe that the Bible is the final, complete, inerrant in its original autographs and infallible authority for our lives; that the Bible consists of sixty-six Old Testament and New Testament books; that as originally written it is in its entirety verbally inspired by God; and that it is indeed the Word of God.

GOD

We believe that there exists one living and true God. That in His being He is infinite, eternal, self-existent, unchanging, ever-present, and sovereign. In His divine and infinite being there is a trinity of personal distinctions, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, sharing equally in every divine perfection while executing distinct but harmonious offices in every divine work.

JESUS

We believe that Jesus is truly the eternal Son of God who through his sacrificial death on the cross, paid the penalty of sin for all mankind. We believe that Christ bodily rose from the dead and ascended into heaven, and that He will one day return to earth.

SALVATION

Salvation is found only in the person of Jesus Christ. Out of incredible love, God sent his only son to pay the penalty owed for the sin of all mankind. By God’s grace and our acceptance of Jesus’ sacrifice, we have been reconciled with God and now have eternal life with him.
