Growing People Who Impact Their World For Jesus Christ
Mayer Community Church

  1. We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired of God, that this inspiration is both verbal and plenary, inerrant in the original writings, and that the Scriptures are of supreme and final authority in faith, practice and life.
  2. We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, & Holy Spirit.
  3. We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, and is the only begotten Son of God.
  4. We believe that man was created in the image of God by His direct act and not from previously existing forms of life; that man sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature (sinners in thought, word, and deed).
  5. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures and that all who believe in Him are justified by His shed blood.
  6. We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, His ascension into heaven, and His present life there for us as High Priest and Advocate and the only mediator between God and man.
  7. We believe in “a living hope” and “the blessed hope” which is the personal and visible return of our Lord Jesus Christ to the earth to establish His kingdom.
  8. We believe that all who trust in Jesus Christ alone as Savior and Lord are born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become the children of God; that they are thereafter indwelt by the Holy Spirit who makes possible a life of personal holiness and a walk of obedience to the will of God; that all who are truly born again are “kept by the power of God” and their salvation is assured.
  9. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved and the everlasting, conscious punishment of the lost.
  10. We believe that the local church is a body of believers organized for worship, work, and fellowship; that the local church is an independent and self-governing body responsible alone to Christ who is its Savior and Lord.  The two ordinances of the church are believer’s Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
