The Statement of Faith for DeoWorks is rooted in the revelation of God through the Old and New Testaments. We confess the historic statements given to the Christian Church through the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed.
We believe in:
- The Trinitarian God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit who is sovereign in creation, providence, revelation, redemption, and final judgment. (Matthew 28:19, John 20:21; Colossians 1:16)
- Scripture: Both the Old and New Testaments as the absolute authority in all matters of faith, knowledge of God, and how we are to live. (1 Peter 3:16; 2 Tim. 3:16)
- Sin and the Savior: All human beings are universally cursed by sin and thus, separated from God and needing a Savior in order to experience salvation. (Romans 3:23)
- The Cross: Because of His love, God has provided the ultimate sacrifice through the death of the incarnate Son. This is the only means by which salvation can be found. (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:16)
- Faith: Through faith in Christ’s work on the cross and His resurrection, all people can experience redemption, eternal life, and a personal relationship with God. (Romans 5:1)
- The Holy Spirit: The Spirit of the Father, and the Son that speaks, guides, loves, leads, and sanctifies those with saving faith. (John 14:25, John 20:21)
- Unity of the Church: Through the leading of the Holy Spirit, although full of diversity and differences, the church of Jesus Christ is one body under His headship. (Ephesians 4:5)
- The Return: The Lord Jesus Christ is expected to return again, of which those who believe await the second coming. (Matthew 24:42; Revelation 22:12)
