Statement Of Faith

At Biblical Christianity, everything I share flows from a deep love for Jesus Christ and a firm belief in the truth and authority of God’s Word.

Below is a summary of the core beliefs that shape the message and mission of this site.

📖 The Bible

I believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the final rule for faith and life, fully sufficient to guide us in truth, doctrine, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16–17; Psalm 119:105).

✝️ God

I believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — who are equal in glory and power (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

👑 Jesus Christ

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man, who was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, rose again on the third day, and ascended to heaven, where He now intercedes for us.

He will one day return to judge the living and the dead (John 1:1,14; Romans 5:8; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Acts 1:11).

🕊 The Holy Spirit

I believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer, empowering us to live godly lives, guiding us into truth, and producing spiritual fruit.

He convicts the world of sin and points hearts to Jesus (John 14:26; Romans 8:9–11; Galatians 5:22–23).

❤️ Salvation

I believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone. We are saved not by our works but by trusting in Christ’s finished work on the cross.

This salvation is a free gift from God to all who repent and believe (Ephesians 2:8–9; Titus 3:5; Romans 10:9–10).

🌎 The Church

I believe that the universal Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers everywhere.

Local churches are communities of faith where believers grow, serve, and worship together, encouraging one another in love and truth (Hebrews 10:24–25; Acts 2:42–47; 1 Corinthians 12:12–27).

⛪ Church Ordinances: Baptism and Holy Communion

I believe that Jesus Christ gave the Church two ordinances to observe: Baptism and Holy Communion (The Lord’s Supper).

1️⃣ Baptism is an outward expression of an inward faith — a public testimony of a believer’s identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

While baptism does not save, it is an important step of obedience and a symbol of new life in Christ (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:41; Romans 6:3–4).

2️⃣ Holy Communion is a sacred reminder of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. As we partake of the bread and the cup, we proclaim His death until He comes again.

It is a time of reflection, gratitude, and spiritual unity with Christ and one another (Luke 22:19–20; 1 Corinthians 11:23–26).

These ordinances are reserved for believers and practiced in obedience to Christ’s command.

🔔 The Rapture and the Second Coming of Christ

I believe in the imminent return of Jesus Christ to gather His Church, known as the Rapture. This event will be a sudden, supernatural gathering of all true believers, both living and dead, to meet the Lord in the air and be with Him forever (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17; 1 Corinthians 15:51–52; John 14:1–3).

Following the Rapture, I believe in the literal, physical Second Coming of Jesus Christ to earth. He will return in power and glory to judge the nations, defeat evil, and establish His millennial kingdom of peace and righteousness.

Every eye will see Him, and every knee will bow (Revelation 19:11–16; Zechariah 14:4; Matthew 24:30; Philippians 2:10–11).

This blessed hope motivates us to live holy lives, share the Gospel with urgency, and remain watchful and faithful until He comes (Titus 2:13; Matthew 24:42–44; 2 Peter 3:10–14).

🔥 Eternity

I believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost — the saved unto eternal life in the presence of God, and the lost unto eternal separation from Him.

Heaven and hell are real places (John 5:28–29; Revelation 20:11–15; Matthew 25:46).

My hope and prayer is that everything shared on this site points you to the truth of the Gospel and the hope we have in Jesus Christ.

  1. Dear Alice,

    Greetings!

    I was looking at your “statement of faith” and I totally agree with your reference to The Bible

    The Bible
    I believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the final rule for faith and life, fully sufficient to guide us in truth, doctrine, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16–17; Psalm 119:105).

    How do you view the “Land Promise to Abraham” God’s Friend – 2 Chron 20:7 Art not thou our God, who didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?

    Isa 41:8 But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend. James 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

    Please read Genesis 12-through to chap 22 and underline the words “the Land” – Also Gal 3 and Deuteronomy 11:10-12

    Doesn’t “The Land” play a conspicuous part in God’s dealings with Mankind and the future of the faithful?

    Sincerely,
    Greg Dow

    • Dear Greg,

      Thank you for taking the time to read my Statement of Faith and for your thoughtful, Scripture-rich comment. I truly appreciate your affirmation of the authority and sufficiency of God’s Word, and I value the care you’ve shown in grounding your question directly in Scripture.

      You raise an important and weighty topic. There is no question that the land promise to Abraham plays a significant role in God’s covenantal dealings with Israel. Genesis 12–22, along with passages like Deuteronomy 11, make clear that the promise of land was real, intentional, and deeply tied to God’s faithfulness to Abraham’s physical descendants. Scripture repeatedly affirms that God keeps His promises.

      At the same time, when I read the whole counsel of Scripture, especially in light of Galatians 3 and the New Testament, I see the land promise situated within a broader redemptive plan that ultimately points to Christ. The New Testament emphasizes that the greatest fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham is not confined to geography alone, but expanded through faith in Christ to include people from every nation, who become heirs according to the promise (Gal. 3:7–9, 16, 29).

      So, while “the land” is undeniably conspicuous in God’s historical dealings with Israel, I understand the ultimate hope of the faithful to be anchored not in an earthly inheritance, but in the eternal kingdom secured through Christ, “a better country, that is, a heavenly one” (Hebrews 11:16).

      Thank you again for engaging so thoughtfully and for encouraging deeper study of God’s Word. These kinds of conversations sharpen us and remind us how rich and layered Scripture truly is.

      Grace and peace,
      Alice
