Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of Maiden Lane Church of God based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
God
We believe that God is the creator of the heavens and the earth and eternally exists in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus
Jesus is God who became flesh and lived among us. He was the perfect sacrifice, by giving His life for our sins on the cross, and was buried, and rose from the grave on the third day. Everyone who responds to the work and teaching of Jesus, by personal faith and life-change, will live with Him forever.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is working in the hearts and lives of people, drawing them to experience the life change given freely by God. The Holy Spirit reveals truth and empowers people to accomplish God’s purpose in this life.
The Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and our final authority in how we live out our faith.
The Church
This is a community of followers of Jesus who live life together in genuine biblical community.
Marriage
We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture.
Sanctity of Human Life
We believe that all human life is sacred and created by God in His image. Human life is of immeasurable worth in all its dimensions, including pre-born babies, the aged, the physically or mentally challenged, and every other stage of condition from conception through natural death. We are therefore called to defend, protect, and value all human life.
