Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of Unity Community Church 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.
Salvation is Found Through Jesus Christ Alone
Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God who died for our sins and arose from the dead and salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:21; Acts 4:12)
The Nature of Scripture
The Bible is the inspired word of God – a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. (2 Timothy 3:16; Psalm 119:105)
The Nature of Man
Every person has worth as a creation of God, but that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)
The Church
The Church is the Body of Christ on earth, it is empowered by the Holy Spirit, and exists to evangelize the non-believer and edify the believer. (Ephesians 4:1-16)
The Deity of Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is God incarnate, God in the flesh, He is the Word made flesh that dwelt among us and in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form. (Colossians 2:9; John 1:1, 14; 14:7; 8:58; 19:7; Romans 9:5; Acts 20:28; Philippians 2:5,6)
The Trinity
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:21,22; John 14:10; 2 Corinthians 13:14)
The Virgin Birth of Jesus Christ
Jesus had no human father but was conceived in the womb of Mary his mother by the action of the Holy Spirit. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 1:26-38)
The Substitutionary Death of Jesus Christ
He was wounded and bruised for our sins. He was chastised that we might have peace; he was lashed – and we were healed! God laid on Him the guilt and sins of every one of us! Christ died once for the sins of all us guilty sinners…that he might bring us safely home to God. (Isaiah 53:6; 1 Corinthians 15:3; 1 Peter 3:18)
The Bodily Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Jesus appeared to his disciples and many others following his resurrection; they touched Him and ate with Him. (Luke 24:39; 1 Corinthians 15:4)
The Physical Return of Jesus Christ to Earth
Jesus Christ will one day return to earth and reign forever as King of kings and Lord of lords. (John 14:3; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Titus 2:13)
The After Life
The resurrection and assignment of all people to heaven or to hell (John 5:28, 29)
Hell – a place prepared for the devil and his angels (Revelation 20:10,15; Matthew 5:29-20)
