Faith Statement
Core Statement of Faith (Universal) View of God: We believe in one true God, the Triune God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), the Creator, Redeemer, and Comforter. View of Christ: We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, incarnate, who died to atone for the sins of humanity, resurrected after death, is the Savior, and will return. View of Scripture: We believe that the Bible is inspired by God and is the highest standard for faith and life. View of the Church: We believe that the universal church (including the Chinese church) is the body of Christ and has a mission to fulfill. View of the End Times: We believe in the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ and the complete realization of God's kingdom. Characteristics of the "New Type" Urban Church (Manifestations) Contextualization: Connecting the gospel message with Chinese culture and social realities, expressing faith in language and ways that Chinese people can understand and relate to. Integration into Daily Life: Emphasizing that faith is not only practiced in Sunday worship but also reflected in daily life, including work, study, and family. Social Concern: Addressing urban issues (such as wealth inequality, environmental issues, and vulnerable groups), serving the community through practical actions, and practicing love and justice. Diversity/Decentralization: In addition to large gatherings, there are also small house churches, small groups, and online gatherings, in a variety of forms. Intergenerational/Intercultural: Reaching out to people of different age groups (youth, middle-aged, and elderly) and backgrounds, emphasizing the transmission and integration of faith across generations and cultures.
