What We Believe

It is imperative that in the essentials we find unity;
in the non-essentials we find liberty,
in both we find charity (love).
~ St. Augustine

Northside Community Church is a fellowship of believers that is centered on worshipping the one, true, living God. We are a church that is diverse and holds no limits to what God can do through people's lives.
We worship in a variety of ways such as contemporary music, drama, creative dancing, writing and testimonials, hymns, relevant preaching, and other new and creative ways in which we can honor God!
We believe in the Trinity - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit.
We accept the Bible as God's infallible word, inerrant in the original manuscripts and our only rule of faith and practice.
We accept Jesus Christ as God's divine Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit, virgin born, who died on the cross as a substitution sacrifice for our sin. He arose bodily from the dead, and ascended into heaven where He is now our interceding High Priest. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin. We have all sinned in our own right and need a Savior to save us from the penalty for our sins. Salvation is by God's grace through faith in Christ.
The Church is a company of believers, who by the influence of the Holy Spirit were baptized into one body. We accept as Christians those who have asked Jesus Christ into their lives and have asked Him to forgive them for their sins. We baptize by immersion only and receive into our partnership only penitent, immersed believers or baptismal candidates.
