CHRIST REDEEMER FELLOWSHIP

Our Key Doctrinal Beliefs

The Bible is God’s special revelation to the world in which He explains to us vital aspects of His character, His will, His love for us, and the nature of His eternal Kingdom. While we believe everything that the Bible says is important and inspired, we have identified a handful of key doctrinal beliefs as being critical to helping us develop a healthy relationship with Him. These key doctrines are listed below:

•  The Bible is the inspired and infallible word of God.

• Jesus Christ, fully God and pre-existent with the Father throughout eternity, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified for the sins of the world, rose again in bodily form on the third day and reigns at the right hand of the Father in Heaven.

• Faith in Jesus Christ and His redeeming work is all that God requires for us to receive the gift of eternal life.

•  Because Jesus Christ died on the cross to take the punishment for our sins, those who believe in Him now exist in a state of complete forgiveness, peace and acceptance with the Father.

• The Holy Spirit is the active and participating presence of God in our lives today, releasing various spiritual gifts and abilities into the life of the Church and recreating in the lives of each believer the character of Christ.

• The Church of Jesus Christ throughout the world is one body with many unique expressions; in light of this we are dedicated to cooperating with and building up other members of His body wherever they may be.

 Above all, we believe that God’s ability to succeed is always greater than our tendency to fail, and that His great love for each of us is always able to transform our lives that have been broken by failure and sin. In Jesus Christ, we can be not only saved, but SAFE!

 “See how great a love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God, and such we are!” - 1 John 3:1
