About Amazing Grace Christian Church
-
Our Beliefs
God - We believe that God is the creator and sustainer of the universe who has provided humankind with a revelation of Himself through the natural world and through His Son, Jesus Christ. Further, we believe that the greatest revelation of God comes through the word of God and through Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Jesus Christ - We believe that Jesus is the Son of God. He is the manifestation of God, in the flesh, being both human and divine. He was in the beginning and is the beginning. He was before all creation, is creation, and all creation comes from him. He was prophesied as the Messiah who was to come; born of the virgin Mary; gave his life freely for our sins through crucifixion on a cross at Calvary; was buried and rose again on the third day.
The Holy Spirit - We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, who exercises the power of the Father and the Son in creation and redemption. The Holy Spirit is the Paraclete, or Helper, whom Jesus promised to the disciples after His ascension. It is through the Helper that Father and Son abide with the disciples.
Amazing Grace - We believe that God's grace is truly amazing. Grace, in one sense, is defined as "God's unmerited favor toward humankind." We believe we are saved by grace. We believe grace redeems. We believe that grace endures. It is from this premise that all are welcome at Amazing Grace.
