Pathfinding Ministries Statement of Belief

1. In one true God who exists in three persons:  the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit (Matt 28:19)
   

2. That Jesus Christ was fully human and fully God.  He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born to a virgin.  He lived a sinless life and was our substitutionary atonement.  We  believe in his bodily resurrection in His ascension to the right hand of God and that He will personally return in power and glory (John 1:14-18, 2Cor. 15:3-6, 2 Cor. 5:21)
   

3. That the Holy Spirit indwells each believer at the time of conversion to sanctify, guide, and empower through His gifts (1Cor. 12:4-11, Gal. 5:;16-23, Tit. 3-5)
   

4. That the Bible is the inspired, infallible word of God and is given to us by God to direct us in our faith and practice (2Tim, 3:16-17)
   

5. All men and women are sinners and must receive the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord (Eph. 2:1-10)
   

6. In water baptism and communion for all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Matt. 28:19-20, 1Cor. 11:23-26)
   

7. In the resurrection of all men and women before a final judgment where there will be an eternal blessing for the righteous and an eternal punishment for the wicked.  (Matt. 25:31-48)
