At Grace Chapel, we believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant forever settled Word of God. That it is the Divinely authoritative standard for every age and every life. We believe in one God that eternally exists and reveals Himself in three Persons. He is absolute and sole Creator and sustainer of the universe. We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God. That He was born of a virgin in human form. That He revealed the Father in His earthly ministry. That He is perfect theology and the lens through which His written Word is understood. That He died on a cross to bring humanity back into relationship with His Father. That He rose from the dead and ascended into heaven in bodily form. That He will return to earth at the fullness of the times to claim His bride and judge the world. We believe that Holy Spirit is a person and is fully God. He indwells believers at the moment of their faith conversion. That He fills and ministers to and through saints as they yield to Him in faith and obedience. We believe that man was created in the image of God. That he fell from his original created glory through sin. That through sin mankind inherited a sinful nature and was separated from God. That mankind is utterly unable to redeem himself back to his Creator through his own effort. We believe that salvation is a gift from God and received by man through faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross. We believe that the true church is composed of all people who are born again by the Spirit of God through saving faith in Jesus Christ. That Christ alone is the Head of the church. That He alone commissions and leads the church in its God ordained mission through all the ages. We believe in the personal, and eminent coming of Jesus Christ back to the earth. We believe that at His return He will judge all of humanity separating people “as a shepherd separates his sheep from the goats”. The redeemed will be ushered into eternal glory with Him and those who have rejected His salvation into eternal punishment.
Our beliefs are the foundation of who we believe God is and who we are as a church and are integral to the governance of our church.
