Our Beliefs

TRI-CITIES CHRISTIAN CHURCH

May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”
— John 17:23 NIV

Our church is based largely off the first century churches in Acts, since these are the first churches after Jesus’ death and resurrection. Acts 2:42-47 best describes our church values: “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”

Message of Salvation

We trust in our Heavenly Father who gave us the Scriptures as his inspired Word, His Son Jesus as our Lord who died upon the cross and was raised from the dead to redeem us from sin, and the Holy Spirit who is our Counselor and seal of our salvation. Our redemption totally depends on the work of God, prompted by his own mercy and grace, not our good deeds (Ephesians 2:8-10).

Our Response as Believers in the Good News

Hear: Romans 10:17 “Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.” To be introduced to the good news, we first have to hear the message.

Believe: Once the message is heard, the next step is to believe in the good news: Hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”

Repent: Luke 13:3 “I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.” Jesus calls all his disciples that believe in Him and His word to repent, or turn away, from their sins and old ways of life.

Confess: Romans 10:9 and 1 Timothy 6:12 tell us we need to confess Jesus is Lord in the presence of many witnesses to begin our new life with Jesus. “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved”--“Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made yourgood confession in the presence of many witnesses.”

Be baptized: Finally, we believe that to be saved from our sins and receive the gift of the holy spirit, we need to be baptized by immersion in water: Acts 2:38, 1 Peter 3:21 “Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”—“and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ”

All members are expected to live our lives under the Lordship of Jesus and to maintain one-another relationships helping each other to live as his disciples.
