Church Principles
Crossroads
We believe the bible to be the divinely inspired and authoritative Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice.
We believe in one God, Creator and Sustainer of the universe, who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that we all have sinned and are guilty before God, and, as a result, all, both personally and corporately, suffer the consequences of the fall and are under condemnation.
We believe that all those who turn from their old life and embrace Jesus Christ are delivered from the judgment of God and are born again into life eternal and so are called to be agents of hope in a fallen world.
We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, who being God, became fully human, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on a cross, was raised bodily, is enthroned at God's right hand, and will return as triumphant King.
Explanation: I believe this because I feel like this is the closest to what it says in the Bible in how to run a church.
