OUR BELIEFS
Our Mission is to seek and work to make fruitful disciples of Jesus by providing experiences of Biblical teaching, service and worship.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
01
GOD
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three co-equal persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. About Jesus Christ We believe Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and that He is both fully God and fully hu man. Further, we believe that He died as the substitutionary sacrifice for our sins to satisfy God's justice and that through faith in Him as Lord and Savior, we are justified (declared righteous) by God.

JESUS CHRIST

03
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a personal Being who reveals our sin to us; who comforts, regenerates, in-dwells, sanctifies, empowers, guides, baptizes and bestows His nature and gifts on believers; and who seals them eternally for God.
04
THE BIBLE
We believe that the words of the original Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are infallible and inerrant in what they teach and that they are our final and absolute authority in every area of life and knowledge
05
MAN
We believe man was created by God in His image, not from previously existing life. All of humanity sinned in Adam and thus incurred both physical and spiritual death; therefore, all have inherited a sinful human nature
06
SALVATION
We believe that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. This is completely apart from human effort and merit.
07
RESURRECTION
We believe Jesus Christ bodily rose from the dead and that he ascended into heaven, where He ever lives to intercede as our Great High Priest and Advocate.
08
EVANGELISM
We believe that all believers have been commissioned by Jesus to make disciples by living and speaking the Gospel wherever we live or are called to go.
09
THE LOCAL CHURCH
We believe that the Friendship Church is a tangible and visible-expression of the universal and invisible church, the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the Cornerstone and Head.
10
THE SECOND COMING
We believe that this age will end with the literal, visible, bodily return of Jesus Christ.
11
THE FINAL JUDGEMENT
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the just spending eternity in Heaven with God and the unjust spending eternity in Hell without God.
