PURPOSES
& BELIEFS
CORE VALUES
Temple exists to guide people to life change in Jesus Christ.
We flesh this out through the following four ideas:
Purposes and Beliefs: Text
-
About GodWe believe in one God who exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
About Jesus ChristWe believe that Jesus Christ is God the Son, virgin-born, died on the cross, resurrected from the dead, is coming again, and is the only way to heaven.
-
About The Holy SpiritWe believe that the Holy Spirit lives in every Christian, provides power for living, gives understanding, and provides guidance for doing what is right.
-
About Human BeingsWe believe that all people are created in the image of God but became alienated from God through sin, and as a result, need salvation.
-
About SalvationWe believe that salvation is a gift of God to all who receive it. Only by trusting in Jesus Christ can anyone be saved. (The Good News)
-
About Eternal SecurityWe believe God gives people eternal life through Jesus Christ. We believe this life cannot be gained, kept, or lost by humankind.
-
About EternityWe believe that people will exist eternally either separated from God in Hell or in union with God in Heaven.
-
About The BibleWe believe the Bible was verbally inspired by God and without error in the original writings and has been supernaturally preserved throughout history. It is the supreme authority in all matters of truth.
-
About The ChurchWe believe that the church is the body of Christ. We believe all Christians are to be in covenant with a local body of believers.
-
About Human SexualityWe believe that God's design for human sexuality is the marriage of one woman to one man. All sexual practices outside of God's plan are sinful.
-
About Sexuality IdentityWe believe that God created mankind in His image: male (man) and female (woman), sexually different but with equal personal dignity. We must affirm our biological gender and refrain from any and all attempts to physically change, alter, or disagree with our created predominant biological sex.
