We Believe in the
Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the bible as the word of God.
(2 Timothy 3:16 - 17) All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, (17) so that the man of God can be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

We believe that having faith is necessary.
(Hebrews 11:6 ) And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

We believe in repentance (turning from sinful ways & doing good).
(2 Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

We believe in confessing Christ as our Lord the Son of God.
(Romans 10:9 -10) "that if you confess with your mouth. "Jesus is Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation."

We believe baptism for forgiveness of sins (washes away sins).
(Acts 2:38) Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts 22:16) And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name."

We believe in enduring to the end
(Matthew 24:13) Jesus said, "But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved."

We believe in obeying the Bible
(James 1:22) Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.

Being a christian is a life long journey. Each day is a new day that we must strive to do our best. Once someone has accepted Jesus as Lord of their life there should be a difference in the way they live. It should be evident to all the watching world that they are walking with the Lord. Where there are struggles with sin, we strive on a daily basis to repent. We are all human, and the bible says we all fall short of the glory of God, but that is not an excuse to continue sinning. We must strive to be pleasing to our Father in heaven.

We Invite you to read the study on "God's Plan of Salvation", and "Living a Faithful Life", if you have not already done so.

Since this page is all about what our beliefs are, it would probably be a good place to have these notes.

We are simply a Christian church who goes by the bible and are autonomous in our leadership.

We are not part of the International Churches of Christ, (also know as the Boston church of Christ, the Boston movement, or the Crossroads church.)

Also

If you find a reference in a few various search directories saying that we are "Christ Episcopal Church" it is not correct. Somehow the search engines have mixed us up with a church that is near by. The Leicester Church of Christ has never been Episcopalian.

We are simply Christians who Believe in God, His son, and the Holy Spirit. You can see what we base our faith on in God's Plan of Salvation. It has many scriptures.

We strive to follow the Bible and live our lives as closely as possible to the first Christians in the New Testament.
