We Believe
Introduction
Welcome to the "We Believe" page of The Eternal Life Church of Christ. Here, we aim to share our core beliefs and values that guide our community. As a thriving part of the Community and Society - Faith and Beliefs category, we are dedicated to spreading the message of eternal life through faith in Christ. Join us in exploring the principles that inspire our congregation and shape our lives.
The Foundation of Our Beliefs
At The Eternal Life Church of Christ, our beliefs are firmly rooted in the teachings of the Holy Bible. Through careful study and interpretation, we have developed a comprehensive understanding of our faith. Our core principles revolve around the following fundamental values:
1. The Authority of the Bible
We firmly believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, serving as the ultimate guide for our lives. We uphold its teachings as the final authority in matters of faith, spirituality, and morality.
2. The Trinity
We embrace the concept of the Holy Trinity, acknowledging one God in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. We believe in their distinctness and unity, playing different roles in the plan of salvation.
3. Salvation through Faith
We believe that salvation is a gift from God and can be obtained solely through faith in Jesus Christ. By accepting Him as our savior and repenting from our sins, we can experience eternal life and fellowship with God.
4. The Role of Grace
Grace is essential in our journey of salvation. We firmly believe that it is by God's grace alone that we are justified and forgiven. It is not a result of our own works but rather a pure gift from God.
5. The Church as the Body of Christ
The Eternal Life Church of Christ sees itself as an integral part of the universal church, which is the body of Christ. We emphasize the importance of community, fellowship, and the sharing of spiritual gifts among believers.
Our Doctrinal Statements
In addition to our core beliefs, The Eternal Life Church of Christ adheres to specific doctrinal statements that further shape our faith:
1. Statement of Faith
Our comprehensive Statement of Faith outlines our fundamental beliefs, including our views on God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Bible, salvation, and other essential theological matters. This statement serves as a guiding light for our community.
2. Statement on Marriage and Family
We hold marriage and family as sacred institutions ordained by God. Our statement on these matters outlines our convictions regarding the sanctity of marriage, the roles of husband and wife, and the importance of raising children in a loving, God-centered environment.
