Rock Solid Christian Fellowship Core Beliefs                 

Mission Statement:

To follow the Great Commision as given by Jesus in Matthew 28:18-20. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.

And to equip the saints for the work of the ministry. "Most assuredly I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to my Father (John 14:12)."

Bible

We believe the Bible to be the inerrant Word of God.

• That the 66 books of the Old and New Testament were inspired by the Spirit of God as originally written
• That the Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and conduct · 2 Timothy 3:16

God

We believe in one God, Creator of all, holy, sovereign, eternal, omnipresent, omniscient, who exists in three equal Persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit

Jesus Christ

We believe in the absolute and essential deity of our Lord Jesus Christ

• In His eternal existence, with the Father in pre-incarnate glory
• In His work of creation, in His virgin birth, sinless life, substitutionary death and bodily resurrection
• In His triumphant ascension, mediatorial ministry and personal return

The Holy Spirit

We believe in the absolute and essential deity, and in the personality of the Holy Spirit

• Who convicts us of sin, and who teaches us of all truth
• Who confirms to us that we are children of God
• Who regenerates, indwells, seals, sanctifies, illuminates and comforts those who believe in Jesus Christ
• Who enters believers at conversion into the Body of Christ and bestows upon them His gifts sovereignly as He wills and fills those yielded to Him
• Who baptizes believers, with evidence of speaking in tongues that allows for greater manifestation of the gifts of healing, revelation, and power

Mankind

We believe that Adam was divinely created in the image of God

• That by the sin of disobedience he fell from that state
• That all his posterity inherited spiritual depravity and defilement
• That all men therefore are guilty before God and condemned to physical and spiritual death
• That those who do not receive Jesus as Savior are condemned to an eternal death in hell
• That Jesus made a way for mankind to be restored by His precious blood that He poured out on Calvary and when we 
  • receive Him as Lord and Savior we become new creations, are forgiven of our sins, receive eternal life and the gift of 
  • Holy Spirit indwelling us, and we will dwell in heaven with our Savior for eternity

Salvation

We believe that salvation is by the sovereign grace of God

• That by the Father, Christ voluntarily suffered a propitiatory death
• That justification is by faith alone in the all-sufficient sacrifice and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
• That those who have received the free gift of salvation shall be free from the law of sin and death, and will go to heaven upon physical death
• For by grace we have been saved by grace, and that not of ourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesidans 2:8-9).
