About Community Bible Church
- Affiliation - We are an inter-denominational conservative,
evangelical Bible Church.
- The Bible is the inspired, inerrant, and infallible
word of God and should be studied daily.
- The Trinity is God existing as: Father, Son and
Holy Spirit, separate in character but one in essence.
- The Local Church is the body of Christ on Earth
and exists to continue the ministry that Jesus started.
- The Holy Spirit is God, and He is in all Christians.
It is the Christian's responsibility to be filled with and
led by the Spirit.
- Salvation - the only way to be saved from Hell
and go to Heaven is to personally accept Jesus Christ as
Lord and Savior.
- Eternal Security of the Believer - Because God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ: the true believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. If you have been genuinely saved, you cannot 'lose' it.
- Personal Responsibility - Every Christian should
lead people to Jesus, show them how to live a Christian
life, and help them any way they can.
- Tithing is each Christian's responsibility to give
at least 10% of their income to the local church.
- Born Again - A person is born again when they personally
accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
- Sin is anything we do that is against the word
of God as written by the Holy Bible.
- Baptism is immersing a willing Christian under
water in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It
is an act of obedience that identifies a person with Jesus
Christ.
- Spiritual Gifts are powers and abilities
the Holy Spirit gives whenever, wherever, and to whomever
He wants. These gifts will always glorify Jesus and build
up the church. We let the Spirit be in charge of His gifts.
Concerning tongues like all spiritual gifts, we avoid an
“all must or none can” approach.
- Angels and Demons are spiritual beings that work
to carry out the purposes of God and Satan.
- Missions - We support missionaries and mission
organizations on five of the seven continents. Our main
support goes to church planting missionaries and organizations.
- Divorce and Remarriage - We do not counsel or encourage
divorce, nor do we make second class Christians out of those
who have been through a divorce or are remarried.
- Abortion - We are pro-life and take an active stand
against those who promote or support abortion. We show mercy
and kindness to those who have had an abortion.
- Government - We encourage our members to educate
themselves, vote, attend meetings and get involved in government
at all levels.
- Praise and Worship is an expression of how we feel
about God. Our worship services offer a variety of musical
styles and lyrics; we encourage everyone to sing to the
Lord and praise Him.
- Church Membership is a commitment between a Christian
and a local church, agreeing to support and encourage one
another in life and ministry.
