‹ Who
We Are
The Bible reveals the
awesome purpose for human existence. It does so in
a carefully presented message that has been recorded
by various writers, representing multiple cultures,
and written to a specific people. This message is unified
and transcends time to speak and apply to us today
in the 21st century.
God’s objective
truths are always presented by humans who have subjective
points of view. In other words, the Scriptures are
100% correct but as people begin to communicate those
truths, couching the timeless words of God in their
own terminology, error and misinterpretation may creep
in.
We know that there are many voices crying
out for attention, each one with their own specific
doctrines and teachings, each one saying they are right.
It seems as though confusion—not unity—reigns.
Considering this, we have prepared various statements
to express our foundational perspectives. It is important
for you to know right where we stand when it comes
to approaching the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
But please note—We believe that real, biblical
faith is marked by one’s actions (James 2:17)
more than by doctrinal statements. We’re not
speaking of “works” here. Rather we’re
talking about a life transformed by His grace and our
faith, which results in actions that display this transformation
to others. Bearing forth the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians
5:22–23), having a transformed mind and life
(Romans 12:1-2), and the keeping of God’s Word
(John 14:15, 1 John 2:3-6) are just a few of the characteristics
that a transformed life exhibits.
We have attempted
to capture the complexity of some of these theological
and biblical ideas in down-to-earth language. We trust
that these statements will not detract from the power
and beauty of the original intent and revelation of
the Scriptures.
