Statement of Faith
From the beginning, the Forum has been led by and found commonality in the basic tenets of the Christian faith as laid out in the Bible.
-
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, Word of God and the authoritative guide for faith and conduct.
-
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
-
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
-
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
-
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
-
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
-
We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female and that these two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God.
-
We believe in the God-ordained covenant relationship of marriage as the exclusive union of one man and one woman.
