Kirtland Christian Fellowship
Statement of Faith
1. We believe that all 66 books of the Bible (Old and New Testaments)
Are the infallible and inerrant Word of God, fully inspired by the Holy
Spirit. This one, true God is the creator and sustainer of all that exists, both in heaven and on earth.
2. We believe in one God in 3 persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy
Spirit. This one, true God is the creator and sustainer of all that exists,
both in heaven and on earth.
3. We believe that the Son – Jesus Christ – was God become man; that
he was conceived supernaturally by the Holy Spirit to a young virgin
named Mary; that he died on the cross for our sins; and that he rose from the
dead.
4. We believe that the Holy Spirit; the 3rd Person of the Triune God-head.
He is the one who reveals Christ to us. He comes to live in the hearts
of believers, gives new life and the power to live for God. He is at
work in believers, transforming them into the likeness of Christ. He
places each member in the body of Christ and gives each one gifts for
service. We believe in the conscious today experience of the filling and
empowering of the Holy Spirit for service today.
5. We believe that every human being is separated from God, and under
His just condemnation, because of sin. The only way that any person
can be forgiven and reconciled to our Heavenly Father is through
repentance, trusting in Christ’s redeeming work on the cross, and
being spiritually re-born by the supernatural act of the Holy Spirit.
6. We believe that the Church is God’s family, composed of everyone
who has placed their faith in Jesus Christ. Local congregations of the
Church are where believers gather to worship and grow together in
faith.
7. We believe that Jesus rose, literally and bodily, from the dead, and
that he will return one day to judge the earth and fully establish God’s
kingdom for all eternity.
