Centenary Church Core Beliefs

At Centenary Church, we believe

IN GOD… 
The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit – the one and only true God, three persons dwelling in  perfect oneness for all eternity. (Deuteronomy 5:6-7, Isaiah 6:3, Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 1:2,  Revelation 1:8) 
 

IN GOD THE FATHER…  
The Creator of Heaven and Earth and Giver of Life, ever-present, all-knowing and all-powerful.  (Genesis 1:1-2:2, Psalm 139:1-10, Psalm 147:5, Revelation 19:6)  

IN GOD THE SON… 
Christ Jesus is our Lord and Savior, fully God and fully man, through whose physical death and  bodily resurrection our sins are forgiven, and we receive eternal life, and through whom we can  have a personal relationship with God. (Matthew 1:21, Mark 1:10-11, John 3:16, 34-36)  

IN GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT… 
God’s Spirit lives within every believer, uniting us as the one Body of Christ, and guiding and empowering us to live a lifestyle of good works as we respond to God’s grace. (John 14:16-17, John  16:13) 

IN SALVATION…  
We are sinners from birth who are saved only by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by anything  we do. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5, 1 John 5:11-12) 

​IN THE BIBLE...
The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired and perfect Word of God and are and always will be the final authority for life and faith. (2 Timothy 3: 16-17, Joshua 1:8) 

IN THE GREAT COMMANDMENT… 
We are called to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love our neighbors as  ourselves. (Mark 12: 30-31, Matthew 22:37-39)  
​

IN THE GREAT COMMISSION… 
We are called to share the Truth of Jesus Christ in word and action in our home, neighborhood,  community, nation and world. (Acts 1:8, Matthew 28:19-20)  

​

Our Values

At the center of our values are OUR CORE BELIEFS about God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, Salvation, the Bible, the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. All of OUR VALUES stem from these core beliefs and serve as a model for how we serve God and Jesus Christ as the Centenary Church Family. 
WELCOMING: We welcome and value people of all ages and generations, all races  and ethnicities, all backgrounds and walks of life, and all stages of spiritual growth.  

RESPECT: We treat each other with loving care, consideration, compassion and  courtesy, and seek to resolve differences and disagreements with civility.
 

INTEGRITY: We are honest, acting in ways consistent with our words and beliefs,  and holding ourselves and others accountable for what we say and do.  

TRUST: We are truthful and transparent with one another, without fearing or exhibiting  aggression, condemnation, retaliation or breach of confidentiality. 
 

COMMUNICATION: We share openly, freely and appropriately any and all information, feedback and feelings that can help strengthen our church and fulfill our calling.  

COMMITMENT: We are dedicated to God, to each other, to Centenary and to  the Cause of Christ, and will pursue our beliefs, purpose and calling with courage, strength  and perseverance.  
​

ONENESS: We believe we are better together, and, guided by our shared beliefs,  values and goals, we will work cooperatively and collaboratively to serve and share Christ with  our church family, community and world.
