Statement of Faith

What we believe shapes how we worship, serve, and welcome.

Word of Grace shares the confession of the Fellowship of Charis Churches: the Bible, the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible as the infallible rule of faith and practice.

01

The Bible

The sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired and wholly without error as originally given by God.

02

The One True God

God exists eternally as three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

03

The Lord Jesus Christ

Jesus is preexistent, divine, virgin-born, sinless, crucified, risen bodily, ascended, ministering now, and coming again.

04

The Holy Spirit

The Spirit is personal and divine, baptizing and indwelling believers at regeneration and filling them for life and service.

05

Man

Humanity was created in the image of God, fell into sin, and needs the new birth for salvation.

06

Salvation

Salvation is complete and eternal by God's grace alone, received through personal faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work.

07

The Church

The church is Christ's body and bride, expressed locally for worship, edification, fellowship, and gospel witness.

08

Christian Life

Believers are called to righteousness, good works, prayer, truth, holiness, peace, and the fruit of the Spirit.

09

Ordinances

The church observes baptism of believers and the threefold communion service.

10

Satan

Satan exists as the adversary of God and His people, is judged, and faces final doom.

11

Second Coming

Christ will personally, visibly, and imminently return for His church and establish His kingdom.

12

Future Life

The dead consciously exist, bodies will be raised, believers rewarded, unbelievers judged, and eternity is real.
