Who We Are
Our Beliefs
God
God is the creator and Ruler of the universe. He has existed eternally in three persons: the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 3:22, Psalm 90:2, Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2,
2 Corinthians 13:14
Jesus
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father, Jesus lived a sinless human life and gave Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven and will return again to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
Mathew 1:22-23, Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1-5, John 14:10-30, Hebrews 4:14-15, 1 Corinthians
15:3-4, Romans 1:3-4, Acts 1:9-11, 1 Timothy 6:14-15, Titus 2:13
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every believer from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under His control daily.
2 Corinthians 3:17, John 6:7-13, John 14:16-17, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 2:12, 1 Corinthians 3:16, Ephesians 1:13, Galatians 5:25, Ephesians 5:18
The Bible
The Bible is God’s Word to all people. It was written by human authors under the
supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the ultimate source of truth for Christian
beliefs and living.
2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:20-21, 2 Timothy 1:13, Psalm 119:105, Psalm 119:160, Psalm 12:6, Proverbs 30:5
Humanity
Humanity is made in the image of God. Although God designed us to have fellowship with Him, we became alienated from God through disobedience. As a result, all human beings are born with a sinful nature and choose to sin against God. We are incapable of
regaining a right relationship with God through our own efforts.
Genesis 1:27, Psalm 8:3-6, Isaiah 53:6, Romans 3:23, Colossians
Salvation
Salvation is God’s gift to you if you’ll accept it. We can never make up for our sin with
self-improvement or good works. It is only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of
forgiveness that you can be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment you
receive Jesus Christ into your life by faith.
Romans 6:23, Ephesians 2:8-9, John 14:6, John 1:12, Titus 3:5, Galatians 3:26, Romans 5:1
Eternal Security
Because God gives man eternal life through Jesus Christ, the believer is secure in that
salvation for eternity. Salvation maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the
self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and eternal power of God the gives this
security.
John 10:29, 2 Timothy 1:12, Hebrews 7:25, Hebrews 10:10-14, 1 Peter 1:3-5
Our Core Values
Trusting God’s Promises
-Our God is a promise maker and a promise keeper. PERIOD.
Pursuing Uncommon Unity
-Jesus calls us to more than getting along or tolerating each other’s differences. He prayed for us to experience an uncommon unity- the same unity He shares with God and the Holy Spirit. This kind of unity doesn’t come naturally; its something we have to pursue.
Making bold moves
-As people we gravitate toward what’s comfortable. This pull from courageous to
complacent fights against what God wants to do in us. The abundant life and amazing
love Jesus wants us to experience always lie on the other side of faith steps and bold
moves!
Having a Kingdom Mentality
-Most of us have prayed “your Kingdom come†without much thought about what that
means. When Jesus came, He came to establish a Kingdom. The more we know about His Kingdom, the more it changes how we think and live everyday.
Showing Visible Love
-the Christian life should be marked by selfless, sacrificial, genuine love- the same love
exemplified by Jesus. True love has the power to connect people to Jesus and each other in a world- transforming way. We literally want to be Jesus’ hands and feet here in
Moberly.
