STATEMENT OF BELIEFS

1. The Bible is the Word of God.                 

We believe the Bible is the verbally inspired word of God and that all our beliefs, values, and actions must be consistent with it.  II Timothy 3:15-17, II Peter 1:21.

In accordance with this, we believe what the Bible teaches about sexuality in Genesis 1:27 and 2:24, Leviticus, 18:22 and 20:13, Romans 1:18 through 28 and I Corinthians 6:9 -11. We affirm that God created only two genders, male and female, and that the biblical standard of marriage is between one man and one woman.  

2. There is One True God.   

We believe there is one true God, the creator of all things who has revealed himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.   Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19.       

3. The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.      

We believe that Jesus is the eternal Son of God and that this is proven in the Bible by: his virgin birth, his sinless life, the miracles he performed, his work on the cross, and especially his resurrection from the dead. Luke 1:31-35, Hebrews 7:26, I Peter 2:22, Acts 2:22, I Corinthians 15:3-4.                      

4. Humankind’s need for Salvation.   

We believe that all people are sinners who need a savior and that the only one who can save is Jesus Christ.  The core mission of Caring Hearts Ministry is to share the message of salvation through Jesus Christ with those who are lost and separated from God.   Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 3, Romans 5:12-19, Romans 6:23, John 3:3, John 14:6, Acts 4:12.                                                  

5. The Power of the Holy Spirit.   

We believe that God provides power for service to all who believe and are willing to be used by him. He provides spiritual gifts for good service.  Luke 24:29, John 16:13,14, Acts 1:8, Romans 11:6-8, 1Corinthians 12:4-11                          

6. The Church and its Mission.   

We believe the church is the body of Christ empowered by the Holy Spirit to accomplish God‘s purposes as it provides instruction, fellowship, and direction. We are an interdenominational Christian ministry. We are not affiliated with or directed by any individual denomination. We are called by God and are obedient to Matthew 25:31-46, Ephesians 1:22-23, Ephesians 2:22, Matthew 28:18-20.                               

7. The Second Coming of Christ.  

We believe that, as he promised, Jesus will return to take his church to heaven and usher in the end time events that will lead to the consummation of all things.  John 14:1-3, Matthew 25:31-46, I Thessalonians 4:13-18, Revelation 20:1-15, Revelation 21:8.
