Statement of Faith:
This Statement of Faith is the main measuring line for the ministry of
Faith Fellowship. We accept the Holy Scriptures, the Old and New
Testament, as the Word of God and the only perfect rule of faith,
doctrine and conduct.
The Bible:
The Bible, comprised of sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament,
is the Word of God. Scripture in its entirety originated with God. God
gave the Scriptures by inspiring His chosen men who composed and
recorded it. The Scriptures are infallible and without error in whole or
in part, in the original writings. The Scriptures are the unique and final
authority on all matters of faith and practice. There are no other
writings similarly inspired by God.
Hebrews 4:12 ● 2 Peter 1:20-21 ● 1 Thessalonians 2:13
● 2 Timothy 3:15-17 ● Matthew 24:35 ● John 10:35, 17:17
God:
There is one living and true God, eternally existing in three distinct
persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each possesses equally all the
attributes of deity and the characteristics of personality. The world and
all things therein were created out of nothing by God alone. He
continues to sustain His creation and to rule over it. God deserves
worship and obedience.
Deuteronomy 6:4 ● Isaiah 45:5-7 ● 1 Corinthians 8:4 ● John 4:24 ●
Matthew 28:19 ● 2 Corinthians 13:14
Jesus Christ:
Jesus Christ is God. He became man by miraculous conception and
virgin birth. He lived a life perfect obedience to the Father and
voluntarily atoned for the sins of all mankind by dying on the cross as
their substitute. He arose bodily from the dead, appeared to more than
500 believers, and ascended into Heaven where He returned to the
right hand of the Father. He is the head of the Church and continually
makes intercession for believers. He shall return to earth again,
personally, bodily and visibly.

● Isaiah 7:14 ● Matthew 1:23, 25 ● Luke 1:26-35
Holy Spirit:
The Holy Spirit is God. He was sent into the world by the Father and
the Son. He enlightens the minds of unbelievers, awakens in them a
recognition of their need of a Savior and regenerates them. At the
moment of salvation, the Holy Spirit permanently indwells every
believer. The Holy Spirit baptizes believers into the body of Christ.
He uniquely endows each believer with at least one gift for the
effective working of the church. These gifts are given by God as He
determines. The Holy Spirit guides believers in understanding and
applying the Scriptures, and never leads believers contrary to
Scriptures. The Holy Spirit’s power and control are appropriated by
faith, making it possible for a believer to live a life of Christ-like
character and to bear fruit to the glory of the Father.
1 Corinthians 2:10-13, 12:4-5, 13 ● Acts 5:3-4, 28:25-26
● Ephesians 4:3 ● Hebrews 9:14, ● 2 Corinthians 13:14
● John 16:13 ● Matthew 28:19
● Hebrews 10:5-17
Salvation:
God’s desire is to call everyone into fellowship with Himself. Man was
originally created to have fellowship with God. But man sinned
through disobedience and thus alienated himself from God. All
individuals inherit a sin nature, they suffer the consequences of the
fall, and are thus in need of restoration to God. Salvation of mankind
is wholly the work of God by His grace and not the result in whole or
in part of human work or goodness. Salvation must be personally
received by faith in the work and person of Jesus Christ and
demonstrated by repentance from sin.
John 1:12, 3:16 ● Ephesians 1:7, 2:1-7, 8-10 ● 1 Peter 1:18-19
● 2 Timothy 1:9 ● Titus 3:5
Eternity:
God created people to exist forever. The final estate of man is
determined by a choice to either accept or reject Jesus Christ as
God’s offer of forgiveness. We choose to either exist eternally
separated from God by sin, or eternally with God through
forgiveness and salvation through Christ. To be eternally separated
from God is Hell. To be eternally united with God is eternal life.
Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence.
