Statement of Faith - The Pointe Church
About The Pointe Church
Welcome to The Pointe Church, a ministry of Omega Fire Ministries! We are a vibrant community of believers passionate about spreading the love of God and making a positive impact on society. Our church is dedicated to upholding and sharing our Statement of Faith, which encapsulates our core beliefs, values, and principles.
Our Beliefs
At The Pointe Church, we believe in the foundational truths of Christianity as outlined in the Holy Bible. Our Statement of Faith serves as a guide for our members and helps us stay focused on our mission to bring transformation to lives and communities through the Word of God.
1. The Holy Scriptures
We firmly believe that the Bible is the infallible, inspired Word of God, written by human authors under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It serves as the ultimate authority and contains all that is necessary for salvation and living a righteous life.
2. The Triune God
We embrace the belief in one God who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity is fully God, yet distinct in role and function, working harmoniously together for the redemption of humanity.
3. The Deity of Jesus Christ
We affirm the divinity of Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God and the Savior of the world. Jesus took on human form, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins, and rose from the dead, providing salvation to all who believe in Him.
4. Salvation by Grace
We believe that salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ. It is not based on personal merits or good works but solely on the redemptive work of Christ on the cross. Salvation brings forgiveness of sins, reconciliation with God, and eternal life.
5. The Holy Spirit
We acknowledge the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity, who indwells and empowers believers. The Holy Spirit guides, convicts, comforts, and equips us for a life of obedience and service to God. We embrace the gifts and fruit of the Spirit in our daily walk with Him.
6. The Church
We recognize the Church as the universal body of Christ, comprising all believers across time and cultures. The local church serves as a gathering place for worship, fellowship, teaching, and outreach. We are committed to actively participating in the growth and edification of the Church.
7. The Return of Christ
We anticipate the glorious return of Jesus Christ, where He will judge the living and the dead. His return will bring final restoration, the consummation of God's Kingdom, and eternal fellowship with Him. We eagerly await this event and strive to live in readiness and anticipation.
Our Values
The Pointe Church upholds core values that shape our identity and guide our actions as a faith community. These values reflect our passion for God, our love for people, and our commitment to making a difference.
1. Worship
We value passionate, heartfelt worship that glorifies God, engages believers, and invites the presence of the Holy Spirit. Through worship, we express our adoration, gratitude, and surrender to the Lord.
2. Community
We value authentic relationships, fostering a sense of belonging and unity among our members. We believe in supporting one another, celebrating together, and bearing each other's burdens in love.
3. Discipleship
We value the process of spiritual growth and development through intentional discipleship. We provide teachings, resources, and mentoring to equip believers to become fully devoted followers of Christ.
4. Outreach
We value reaching out to our local community and beyond with the love and message of Jesus Christ. Through acts of compassion, evangelism, and social initiatives, we aim to positively impact lives and bring transformation to society.
5. Excellence
We value doing all things with excellence, recognizing that our service to God should reflect His character. We strive to honor God through our words, actions, and the resources entrusted to us.
Our Principles
As a church committed to making a difference in society, we follow these guiding principles in all that we do:
1. Biblical Integrity
We adhere to the teachings of the Bible and base our decisions, beliefs, and practices on the unchanging truth found within its pages. We strive to align every aspect of our lives with God's Word.
2. Prayerful Dependence
We recognize the power of prayer and the importance of seeking God's guidance in everything. We depend on Him for wisdom, direction, and strength, acknowledging that apart from Him, we can do nothing.
3. Servant Leadership
We embrace servant leadership, following the example of Jesus Christ who humbly served others. Our leaders are called to shepherd, equip, and empower the members of our faith community to fulfill their God-given purposes.
4. Unity in Diversity
We celebrate diversity within our church, valuing the unique backgrounds, cultures, and gifts that each individual brings. We believe in the power of unity, as we work together in harmony to advance the Kingdom of God.
5. Faith-filled Stewardship
We encourage faithful stewardship of the resources, talents, and opportunities that God has entrusted to us. We believe in using them wisely and generously to further His Kingdom and bless others.
