Our Beliefs
Christian Mennonite Conference’s Statement of Faith.
We believe in the one living eternal God in three persons: God, the Father; God, the Son; and God; the Holy Spirit; Creator of all things.
We believe in the deity, virgin birth, sinless humanity, substitutionary death, atoning blood, bodily resurrection, and ascension to heaven of Jesus Christ.
We believe in the person of the Holy Spirit, sent from God and indwelling every believer.

We believe that every born again believer should be baptized with water upon confession of his faith in Jesus Christ.
We believe in the literal resurrection of the body; external glory for believers in heaven, and everlasting punishment for unbelievers in hell.
We believe in the personal and bodily return of the Lord Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords.
We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are wholly inspired by God and are infallible and the final authority in faith and life.
We believe that man is a sinner by nature.
We believe that man is saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that man is a free moral agent.
We believe in the church as the body of Christ and its mission to fulfill the “Great Commission” of preaching, teaching, and discipling.
We believe that God instituted marriage as a permanent bond between male and female of the same faith.
We believe that the church has the obligation to keep pure the Body of Christ by disciplining those who have chosen to live in deliberate sin.
We believe that all governments are instituted by God and therefore are to be respected as such.
