XXIX. STATEMENT OF BELIEF

Church Community Builder is a non-denominational ministry, working with all Bible-believing Christian churches embracing traditional Christian theology.

We believe in…

  • The Holy Scriptures as originally given by God, divinely inspired, entirely trustworthy, and supremely authoritative.
  • The only true God, the almighty Creator of all things, existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • The value and dignity of all people, created in God’s image to live in love and holiness, but alienated from God and each other because of our sin.
  • Jesus Christ, fully human and fully divine, born of a virgin, conceived by the Holy Spirit, who lived a perfect example, who assumed the judgement due sinners by dying in our place, and who was bodily raised from the dead and ascended as Savior and Lord.
  • Justification by God’s grace, apart from works, to all who repent and put their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation.
  • The indwelling presence and transforming power of the Holy Spirit, who gives to all believers a new heart and a new desire for obedient service.
  • The unity of all believers in Jesus Christ, the Church, the bride of Christ, whose purpose is to care for, convert, and cultivate people towards God in the context of community with other people.
  • The victorious reign and future personal return of Jesus Christ, who will judge all people, both living and dead, with justice and mercy, receiving the redeemed into eternal life.
NOTICE OF RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE Church Community Builder reserves the right to deny access to or terminate the Service to those Customers, churches, or ministries who, in its opinion, are in conflict with its Statement of Belief.
