Our Core Beliefs
Why are we here on earth?
What difference am I making to anyone or anything?
How could my life improve now?
Where will I go when I die?
Have you any thoughts on these questions? Let us know!
WE BELIEVE IN...
The one true God who lives eternally in three persons -the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The love, grace and sovereignty of God in creating, sustaining, ruling, redeeming and judging the world.
The divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testament Scriptures, which are the written Word of God-fully trustworthy for faith and conduct.
The dignity of all people, made male and female in God's image to love, be holy and carefor creation, yet corrupted by sin, which incurs divine wrath and judgement.
The incarnation of God's eternal Son, the Lord Jesus Christ -born of the virgin Mary; truly divine and truly human, yet without sin.
The atoning sacrifice of Christ on the cross: dying in our place, paying the price of sin and defeating evil, so reconciling us with God.
The bodily resurrection of Christ, the first fruits of our resurrection; his ascension to the Father, and his reign and mediation as the only Saviour of the world.
The justification of sinners solely by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
The ministry of God the Holy Spirit, who leads us to repentance, unites us with Christ through new birth, empowers our discipleship and enables our witness.
The Church, the body of Christ both local and universal, the priesthood of all believers -given life by the Spirit and endowed with the Spirit's gifts to worship God and proclaim the gospel, promoting justice and love. As a group of believers in Jesus, we are a family. It is much easier to grow in our faith when we regularly meet together. We can be spurred on, encouraged and challenged as we meet in small groups and as a larger body of people who want to please God in their lives.
The personal and visible return of Jesus Christ to fulfil the purposes of God, who will raise all people to judgement, bring eternal life to the redeemed and eternal condemnation to the lost, and establish a new heaven and new earth.
We know that God really loves the people of our Borough. He came to earth to die for each person who lives here. As a church we want to be a blessing to those who live and work near us. We love this part of Warwickshire and desire to see it blossom economically, socially, educationally and spiritually.
There are lot of unusual words here. The wording has been thought about and mostly formulated by the Evangelical Alliance. This an organisation that has been representing normal Christians since 1846. Get in touch with us or any other church in Nuneaton if you would like to talk about any of these beliefs and how they relate to daily life.
