What We Believe
Ignite Community Church strives to reach all people in our community. We desire to see each individual grow in their faith and believe that we were given the mission to ignite the passion in people’s hearts for Jesus in our community and all nations.
Trinity
We believe in the Holy Trinity: one God revealed in three persons. God exists in relationship with Himself for all eternity. He exists as one substance in three persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Although each member of the Trinity serves different functions, they each possess equal power and authority. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Genesis 1:26; John 1:1-4; 2 Corinthians 13:14; Hebrews 9:14
Salvation
We believe salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone. All men are sinners and have fallen short of God’s standards. We are bound to eternal judgment. Because of the love God portrayed on the cross, we receive salvation. No amount of good works can save us, but only the blood of Christ - the perfect sacrifice - can pay for our sins.
Isaiah 53:5; John 3:26; Acts 4:12; 20:21; Ephesians 2:1-9; Titus 3:5
The Bible
We believe the Bible is God’s Word written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error and is completely relevant to our daily lives and has supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
Deuteronomy 4:1-2; Psalms 12:6; Proverbs 30:5; 2 Timothy 1:13, 1 Peter 1:25; 2 Peter 1:20-21
The Church
We believe the church is not the building, nor it is the individual. The church is the fellowship of people gathered in His name. Although there are multiple members, and even multiple gatherings, in the eyes of God we are one body and He is our head; one bride and He is our bridegroom.
Ephesians 1:22-23, 5:28-30; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Romans 12:5; Revelation 19:7-9
