Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of Abundant Life Church | Nashville, GA based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
Bible
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for our faith and daily living. It reveals who God is and how we are called to live.
(2 Timothy 3:16–17, ESV)
“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness…”
(2 Timothy 3:16–17, ESV)
“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness…”
God
We believe in one God who exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is loving, holy, and faithful, and He desires a relationship with every person.
(Matthew 28:19, ESV)
“Baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…”
(Matthew 28:19, ESV)
“Baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…”
Mankind
Humans, both male and female, were created in God's image for His glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creations.
The Fall
When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they ceased to be what they were made to be and became distorted images of God. This caused them to fall out of fellowship with God, and fractured all of creation ever since that time.
Salvation
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.
The Church
The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Ressurection
Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
