Northside Church Doctrinal Statement
~ Our Faith ~
- We believe …
…the Bible to be the inspired infallible inerrant Word of God, and as such, is the final authority in matters of Faith and Life.
2 Peter 1:20-21, 2 Timothy 3:16
- We believe …
…there is only one God, who is revealed in Scriptures in Three Distinct Persons – God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. These three are One, Co-Equal, Co-Eternal, Unchangeable, Forever.
Deuteronomy 6:4, Genesis 1:1, John 1:1, Acts 5:3-4, Matthew 3:16-17
- We believe …
…in the deity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death through His shed blood on the cross, in His bodily resurrection and ascension, in His literal, bodily, pre-millennial return.
The Gospels, Hebrews 4:15
- We believe …
…that man is a direct creation of God and a direct descendent of Adam, whose sin of disobedience brought about the fall of all man kind, resulting in both physical and spiritual death for us all.
Genesis 1-11
- We believe …
…that salvation is available to all solely on the basis of God’s grace through faith in the person and works of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- We believe …
…in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 4:11-16, Corinthians 12, Romans 8:9
- We believe …
…in the ultimate resurrection of all mankind to an eternal destiny, in either heaven or hell based exclusively on one’s personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Gospels
