What We Believe - Anchor Bible Church
Beliefs
Introduction
Welcome to the What We Believe page of Anchor Bible Church, a ministry dedicated to spreading the teachings and love of Jesus Christ. As part of Omega Fire Ministries, we strive to build a strong community of believers who share our faith and beliefs.
Our Mission
At Anchor Bible Church, our mission is to glorify God by guiding people of all walks of life towards a deep and personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We believe in the power of the Bible as God's Word, and our goal is to inspire others to follow Christ and experience His transformative love.
The Authority of Scripture
As followers of Christ, we hold the Bible in highest regard. We believe that the Scriptures are the inspired and infallible Word of God, providing guidance and wisdom for every aspect of life. Through studying and applying the teachings of the Bible, we seek to grow in our understanding of God's will and purpose.
The Triune God
We believe in the one true and living God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity possesses all the attributes of deity and executes distinct roles in the work of redemption and in the life of the Church.
The Deity of Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is fully divine and fully human. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the cross to redeem humanity, and rose again on the third day. Through His sacrificial death, He offers salvation and eternal life to all who believe in Him.
Salvation by Grace
We affirm that salvation is a gift of God's grace and is not earned by human efforts. It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that one can be saved from the penalty of sin and receive eternal life. We believe in the importance of repentance, turning away from sin, and placing one's trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity, dwells within every believer. He convicts individuals of their need for salvation, regenerates their hearts, and empowers them for a life of obedience and service to God. The Holy Spirit also equips believers with spiritual gifts to edify the Church.
The Church
The Church consists of all believers who have been called out from the world to live a life of faith and obedience to Jesus Christ. We believe in the unity and diversity of the Church, with Christ as the head and believers as the body. Through the Church, we strive to impact our community and society with the love and truth of the Gospel.
The Second Coming of Christ
We anticipate the second coming of Jesus Christ, where He will judge the living and the dead. As believers, we eagerly await His return and the establishment of His eternal kingdom. We strive to live in a manner that reflects our anticipation and readiness for His glorious return.
Conclusion
Anchor Bible Church, as part of Omega Fire Ministries, is committed to proclaiming the Gospel, equipping believers, and making disciples. Through our strong faith and beliefs, we aim to make a lasting impact on our community and society by sharing the love of Jesus Christ. Join us on this journey of faith, as we seek to live out the truth and hope found in God's Word.
