Our christian Beliefs
United Methodists share a common hertiage with all Christians. From the Book of Discipline we share the following basic affirmtions in common with all Christian communities.
God – who is one, is revealed in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is “everlasting” and “infinite” in “power, wisdom, justice, goodness, and love.”
Jesus – we believe in the mystery of salvation through Jesus Christ’s life who died on the cross for us and was resurrected demonstating God’s great love for us.
The Holy Spirit – is God working in our midst. His spirit guides, comforts, and strengthens us, if we will but listen.
Huamn Beings – We have been made in the image of the Creator. Like God we have the ability to love and care, to communicate, and to create.
The Church – is the body of Christ which makes diciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
The Bible – the primary authority for our faith. It is God’s instructions for us.
God’s Reign – is both a present reality and future hope.
