奧馬哈華人基督教會

我們的信仰

一 . 我們相信聖經, 包含舊約與新約, 都是 神所默示的; 祂的話語毫無錯誤, 乃是 基督徒信仰與生活的最高權威。
二 我們相信永存的聖父聖子聖靈為獨一 的真神; 祂創造又管理萬物, 祂的權能 統管萬有。
三 我們相信耶穌基督是神的獨生愛子, 藉童貞馬利亞受聖靈懷孕而生。 祂被 釘死在十字架上, 三日後復活又升天, 完成救贖的工作, 到日子滿足時, 還要 再來。
四 我們相信聖靈與聖父、聖子同質,同權, 同尊, 同榮。
五 我們相信人原是照著神的形象和樣式 所造, 因亞當的墮落而成為罪人; 惟靠 耶穌基督的救贖, 方能重生為神的 兒女, 不致滅亡反得永生。
六 我們相信教會是基督的身體, 是普世 重生信徒的集合。任何重生信徒聚集的 地方教會都是這宇宙性教會的一部分。

。 - 約翰福音 3:16
因為我曾定了主意, 在你們中間不知道別的, 只知道耶穌基督、並他釘十字架。 - 哥林多前書 2:2
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” - John 3:16 “
For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.” - 1 Corinthians 2:2

 十字架的信息
在耶穌基督誕生之前, 十字架是把人凌虐致死的工具。公元前519 年, 波斯王在巴比倫將三千名政敵釘死在十字架上。這種處死的刑法後來被羅馬帝國沿用, 以懲罰非羅馬公民和奴隸。 當耶穌為我們的罪釘死在加略山上, 十字架就有了新的意義。藉著耶穌在十字架上所流的血, 神的公義可以不靠守全律法而得。所有相信耶穌基督的人, 都可以得到而被稱為義了; 這的確是人類極大的福音。 福音是神的大能要救一切相信的人。耶穌在十字架上的死是公義的代替不義的; 為的使我們因相信耶穌基督, 能與神和好, 免於罪的審判。十字架的道理是神的恩典, 要賜給所有相信接受的人。當我們能明白這十字架的道理, 就會態度變得謙卑; 認識到自己的能力, 是多麼的微不足道。 相信的人會經歷到這是神的大能, 能改變個人的生命。使徒保羅原是位熱心為義, 極有智慧與能力的宗教徒, 自從見過被釘死在十字架又復活的耶穌基督後, 生命起了驟然又巨大的改變。他說「我將萬事當作有損的, 因我以認識我主基督耶穌為至寶」,在他一生的經歷中, 他宣稱「只知道耶穌基督並他釘十字架」; 他成為基督偉大的使徒。 兩千年來, 十字架的道理絲毫不變、反而越發真實。曾釘十字架的基督今天仍舊呼召人背起十字架, 來跟從祂。祂要賜給人, 祂在十字架所捨棄的生命 – 神的生命。基督的十字架是神與人之間的橋樑

Statement of Faith

Our beliefs are based entirely on the Truth and revelation in the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments. We believe that the Bible is revealed by God, it is infallible, and it is the only standard for Christian faith and living. The Truth is summarized in the Apostle's Creed:

"I believe in God the Father Almighty. Maker of heaven and earth; And in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell, the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge both the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy Catholic Church, the communication of the saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen."

Our Vision

I. Fulfill God’s eternal will of the church; let God be glorified in Christ and the church.

II. Obey God’s word to grow up in all things into Christ who is the Head of the body. From Him the whole body grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

III. Minister God’s people that their love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth to be filled with the fruit of righteousness to the glory and praise of God.

IV. Fulfill the great commission and have fellowship with all believers of the same faith.

The eternal life

What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? (Matt. 16:26)

He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. (I John 5:12)
