What We Believe
We affirm and declare our belief in, and defense of, the historic Christian Faith.
- We believe the Bible, consisting of Old and New Testaments, to be the inspired, inerrant, infallible, and authoritative Word of God.
- We believe that the one triune God exists eternally in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood on the cross, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal and glorious return.
- We believe that the only way of salvation is by faith in the substitutionary work of the Lord Jesus Christ, consisting of the remission of sins, the imputation of Christ’s righteousness, and the gift of eternal life, received by faith alone, apart from works.
- We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Jesus Christ, and that all true believers are members of His body, the church.
- We believe God’s plan for human sexuality is to be expressed only within the context of marriage, that God created man and woman as unique biological persons made to complete each other. God instituted monogamous marriage between male and female as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society.
- We believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end; and that we must have concern for the physical and spiritual needs of our fellowmen.
Our family has found our church home at the Christian Bible Church of Cissna Park, an independent Bible church in rural east-central Illinois, where we are fed the Word of God, and seek to minister to others.
