What We Believe - Graceway Baptist Church
Our Faith and Beliefs
At Central Baptist Church - Graceway, we hold our faith and beliefs close to our hearts. As a community rooted in the values of love, compassion, and service, we strive to live out our beliefs in every aspect of our lives. Our faith guides us in our relationship with God, each other, and the wider world.
The Authority of Scripture
We firmly believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, serving as the ultimate authority for our faith and practice. It is through the Scriptures that we come to know God's will, His promises, and His plan for our lives.
The Trinity
As Christians, we believe in the Godhead existing eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity is fully God, yet distinct in their roles and functions. This understanding of the Trinity shapes our understanding of the nature of God and our relationship with Him.
The Deity of Jesus Christ
We affirm the divinity of Jesus Christ, who is both fully God and fully human. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus offers the gift of salvation to all who believe in Him. We see Jesus as the ultimate example of love, grace, and redemption.
Salvation by Grace through Faith
Central to our beliefs is the understanding that salvation is a gift of God's grace, freely given to us through faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that salvation cannot be earned or achieved through our own efforts, but is solely by God's grace.
The Role of the Church
The church is the body of Christ, called to worship, fellowship, and serve together. We view the church as a community of believers, united in love and a shared mission to spread the Gospel and make a positive impact on the world.
Serving Our Community
As a church deeply committed to our community, we hold outreach and service as integral parts of our faith. We aim to love and serve all people, providing support, resources, and compassion to those in need. Our desire is to be a beacon of hope and a source of positive change in our community.
Mission and Outreach
Through various outreach programs and mission opportunities, we seek to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of individuals and communities. From partnering with local organizations to organizing volunteer initiatives, we strive to make a lasting difference in the lives of those we encounter.
Discipleship and Education
We believe in the importance of continual growth and learning as followers of Christ. We provide opportunities for discipleship and education, including Bible studies, small groups, and classes that deepen our understanding of Scripture and equip us to apply its teachings in our daily lives.
Worship and Celebration
Worship is a vital part of our Christian journey. We gather as a congregation to worship and celebrate together, expressing our gratitude, adoration, and surrender to God. Our worship services are designed to inspire, uplift, and draw us closer to the heart of God.
