By the Grace of God in Jesus Christ, we commit to teach and defend the following bible verses humbly confessing that while we as humans are fallible, we believe that the following is the biblical framework for belief and practice which God would have Community Church and her leaders adhere to:  1 Timothy 4:16 states “Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching.  Persist in this, for by so doing, you will save both yourself and your hearers.”  2 Timothy 4:3-4 states “For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.”  Titus 2:1 states “But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine.” 

 

In obedience to these passages, the following verse included in our statement of faith will help to guard and guide the teaching at Community Church and protect its Body of believers from false teaching.  1 Timothy 4:10 : “For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.”
