We believe that Jesus and His Church are the hope of the World. We believe the church is meant to be a place where every person can experience love, acceptance and authenticity. A place of learning and serving in the Kingdom of God.
The ministry of the River of God Church is built on seven central tenets of the Christian Faith. A clear understanding of what we believe about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and His Word explains our allegiance to the Savior, our dedication to the work of God’s kingdom, and our stand for absolute truth.
We BELIEVE the Bible to be the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
We BELIEVE that there is only 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 to power and glory.
We BELIEVE that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, 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.
Since the River of God Church’s purpose is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ and to develop believers toward Christian maturity, we look to God’s Word and His Spirit to guide us. There are three guiding principles that we recognize as unchanging.
