Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of The Bridge Fellowship. As we step forward in God's call to plant this church, we remember Augustine's words "In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in all things charity".
The Bible
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
The Trinity
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Jesus
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
Salvation
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
Holy Spirit
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
Resurrection
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
Unity
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
