Our Statement of faith

1. The Trinity - There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4)


2. God the Father - The first person of the Godhead orders and directs all things according to His own purpose and pleasure. He authored, created, and sustains all things in the universe without any means other than His own pure power. By His grace, He involves himself in the affairs of men, hears and answers prayer, and saves from sin and death all that come to Him through Christ. (Matthew 6:9, Ephesians 1:3, John 5:19) 


3. Jesus the Son - He eternally existed as the second person of the Godhead. By His virgin birth, He came to earth as fully God and fully man, living a sinless life. His death on the cross made atonement for man’s sin, evidenced by his bodily resurrection from the dead. He physically ascended to the right hand of God the Father, and He will return in power and glory. (John 1:14, Colossians 2:9, Acts 2:32) 


4. The Holy Spirit - The third part of the Godhead convicts people of sin, regenerates, indwells, instructs, and sets apart believers into a holy life. We encourage all believers to seek a life of obedience to the leadership of the Holy Spirit. We believe this step is essential for empowering believers for victorious living and ministry through the gifts given by the Holy Spirit. (Titus 3:5, Acts 1:8, I Corinthians 3:16) 


5. The Bible - The Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are the complete, divinely inspired, infallible Word of God. The Bible is the supreme authority and guide for our Christian faith and living. (II Peter 1:20, Hebrews 4:12)


6. The Nature of Humanity - Humanity was directly created in God’s image, voluntarily fell into sin by personal disobedience to the will of God; consequently, all people are spiritually dead apart from Jesus Christ. The fall of humanity was a once-for-all historical fact. Its effect spread to everyone, each of whom is born with a sinful nature and is in need of salvation. (Ephesians 2:1, Romans 3:10, Romans 3:23-24)


7. The Necessity of Salvation - Salvation is by grace, a gift of God apart from works. Salvation requires repentance, a turning from one’s own way to God’s way. All who receive Jesus Christ are born again, regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and become the children of God. Our relationship with Christ is secure not by our own actions, but by the sustaining power and love of God. We will manifest true salvation by a changed life. (Titus 2:11, I John 1:9, I Peter 2:2)


8. The Church - The church is the body of all believers consisting of all born-again persons without respect to race, culture, or background. Directed by Jesus Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit, the Church is taking the good news of salvation to the whole world. The Church should be marked by a love for God and one another, the unity of all believers, and obedience to the Holy Spirit. (Ephesians 2:19-21, Ephesians 3:10) 


9. - Eternity People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence. (John 3:16, John 14:17, Romans 6:23, Romans 8:17-18, Revelation 20:15, I Corinthians 2:7-9)


10. Marriage and Sexuality - We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. Rejection of one's biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person.


We believe that the term ‘marriage’ has only one meaning and that is marriage sanctioned by God which joins one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture.

Cross Pointe will only recognize marriages between a man and a woman. Further, the Pastors and staff of Cross Pointe shall only participate in weddings and solemnize marriages between one man and one woman.

We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to only occur between a man and a woman who are married to each other.


We believe that to preserve the function and integrity of the church as the local Body of Christ, and to provide a biblical role model to the church members and the community, it is imperative that all persons employed by the church in any capacity, or who serve as volunteers, should abide by and agree to this Statement on Marriage and Sexuality and conduct themselves accordingly.


11.  Last Things - God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its appropriate end. According to His promise, Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory to the earth; the dead will be raised; and Christ will judge all men in righteousness. The unrighteous will be consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment and separation from God. The righteous in their resurrected and glorified bodies will receive their reward and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.
