Grace Chapel Constitution & Articles of Faith --> /files/icons/pdf_16.png

The Scriptures
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God consisting of the sixty-six (66) books of the Old and New Testaments, is verbally inspired of God and inerrant in the original writings and that it is the supreme and final authority in faith and life.

The Trinity
We believe that there is one only Living and True God, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the same in substance, equal in power and glory.

Virgin Birth
We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary, and is true God and true man, and as such He lived a perfect and sinless life.

Sin
We believe that man was created in the image and after the likeness of God, that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also that spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature which is enmity against God, and in the case of those who reach moral responsibility, become sinners in thought, word and deed.

Salvation
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood and righteousness.

Jesus' resurrection
We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there for us, as High Priest, Advocate, and the only Mediator between God and man.

Jesus' return
We believe the personal and bodily return of our Lord Jesus Christ to set up His Kingdom upon the earth, to reign in righteousness and justice.

Salvation
We believe that salvation is by grace through faith, and that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God and that the Holy Spirit indwells all believers.

Baptism & Lord's Supper
We believe there are two ordinances, Baptism and the Lord's Supper, which are to be practiced by all Christians.
Man's resurrection
We believe the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting hope of the saved, and the everlasting conscious punishment of the lost.
