Our Beliefs
Village Bible Church is an evangelical church that focuses on the essential doctrines of the Christian faith, while allowing for a diversity of opinion concerning doctrinal matters that are less critical to our purpose of ministering to people's spiritual needs.
We believe . . . in one God, the Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – and that these three are equal in dignity and power.
We believe . . . in the full deity and full humanity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His substitutionary death on the cross; His bodily resurrection; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and His personal, imminent return.
We believe . . . that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that all who turn from sin and place their trust in Him are declared righteous and come into right relationship with God.
We believe . . . that the Holy Spirit regenerates and indwells all believers and that he empowers them for life and ministry.
We believe . . . that the Church, which is the body of Christ and of which Christ is the Head, is made up of all who have been truly born again.
We believe . . . in the bodily resurrection of everyone who has ever lived – the everlasting blessedness of those who are in right relationship with God, and the everlasting punishment of those who have rejected God's forgiveness in His Son.
