What We Believe

God

We believe God is the creator of all things. He exists in three persons: The Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Within the Godhead, these three persons are co-equal and one.
​Genesis 1:26-27, 3:22 Psalms 90:2, John 1:12, Ephesians 1:13-15,  2 Corinthians 13:14

Jesus

We believe Jesus is the Son of God. Conceived through the power of the Holy Spirit. Born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus was sinless his entire life, offering himself as a sacrifice for the sins of all men through the death on the cross. Jesus rose from the dead three days later and ascended into Heaven. One day he will return to earth.
Matthew 1:22-23, Luke 2:1-20, John 1:1-15, Acts 1:9-11, Romans 5:10, Hebrews 4:14-15, 1 Timothy 6:13-16

Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit is in the world to make individuals aware of their need for Jesus. For those who have accepted Jesus as their Savior, the Holy Spirit dwells in their hearts, empowering them to live holy lives. The Holy Spirit also provides insight on spiritual truth and gives guidance for everyday living. 
John 7:37-39, 14:16-17, 16:7-13, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 2:13, 3:16, Ephesians 1:13-14, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8

Salvation

We believe salvation is the key to eternal life. Sin separates us from God, but through confession and repentance, we understand God sent His one and only Son so that we could have eternal life. Salvation is given to the person who confesses his/her sin and is sincere in heart. Salvation  begins the moment anyone receives Jesus into his/her heart through faith.
John 1:12, 3:16, 14:6, Romans 5:1, 5:10, 6:23, Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:4-7

​Grace

We believe grace is God's gift of unconditional love to us even though we are undeserving. Good works cannot save us. Only through faith in Jesus Christ can a person receive forgiveness and mercy from God.
Matthew 5:16, 7:16-20, Romans 3:22-24, Galatians 2:16, Ephesians 2:1-10, James 2:14-26

Eternity

We believe everyone has an eternity. For all men and women who accept Jesus as their Savior, they will spend eternity with God. Passing on from this world is what unites us with Him in Heaven. Those who don't know Christ personally are eternally separated from God in hell.
Matthew 8:10-12, John 3:16-21, Romans 6:23, Revelation 20:15

Bible

We believe the Bible is God's words to all men. Co-authored by humans, the Holy Spirit provided inspiration to those who authored the Scriptures. The Bible is the source of all truth and is living and active. It's inspired by God and leads people into a right relationship with Him. Simply put, the Bible is man's blueprint for living a Godly life. 
Psalm 19:7, 119, 105, 106, Romans 15:4, 2 Timothy 3:15-17, Hebrews 4:12-13

Spiritual Gifts

We believe spiritual gifts are given to every person once they accept Jesus as their Savior. These gifts are for the purpose of building up the body of Christ and bringing glory to God.
Romans 12:3-8, Ephesians 4:11-16, 1 Corinthians 12:4-25

Baptism

We believe baptism is for all believers after they've accepted Christ as their personal savior. Water baptism by immersion is the biblical testimony of all professed believers in the name of the father son, and holy spirit.
Matthew 4:1-17, 18:18-20, Acts 2:28-47, 8:36-40, 10:47, 18:8, Romans 6:1-7, 1 Corinthians 12:13

Fellowship

We believe fellowship gives Christians an opportunity to meet regularly for worship and to provide encouragement to one another.
Acts 2:42-47, Hebrews 10:24-25

Communion

We believe communion is for born-again believers in observation of their personal relationship with Christ. We partake in communion on a quarterly basis at Crosspointe. The juice symbolizes the blood Christ shed on the cross for our sins, and the bread represents His body, given as our sacrifice at the cross.
Matthew 26:26-30, Acts 2:42-46, 1 Corinthians 11:23-29

​Second Coming

We believe in the second coming, when Christ will return and take those who have accepted Him as their personal savior to heaven with him. The moment of Christ's return is unknown.
Matthew 24, Revelation 20, 1 Corinthians 15
