CODE
is an independent, transdenominational Christian ministry that believes
the Bible to be the inspired Word Of God (2 Peter 1:22) and that it is
the final authority for teaching and living. (Matt. 4:4, 5:17-19, 24:35,
John 8:31-32, 2Tim 3:16-17).
We believe:
That there is one
true and eternal God, (Isaiah 6:3, 1Tim 1:17) Jesus Christ, His
eternal son (John 1:14) who exists in Three persons: Father (Deut.
6:4), Son (John 1:1-4) and Holy Spirit (John 14:16-17, Matt 28:19). He
was conceived of The Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35) and born of a virgin
(Isaiah 7:14, Matt 1:20-23). He taught us how to
live (1Peter 2:21-25). He lived a sinless life yet was crucified
as a sacrifice for our sins (Acts 2:22-23, Titus 2:14, 1John 2:2).
He arose bodily from
the dead (Acts 2:24, Acts 2:31, 1Cor 15:4), he was seen by over
500 people (Acts 2:32, 1Cor 15:5-8) and then ascended to Heaven
to prepare a place for us (John 14:1-3).
The Holy Spirit convicts us
to repent of our sins (John 3:3-6, 16:7-13), confess Jesus Christ as Savior (Rom
10:9-10, 2 Thess 2:13) and live lives pleasing to God. (John 14:26, John 16:13,
Rom 6:1-14, 1Cor 6:19-20, Eph 5:17-21). He gifts and equips each believer to
serve Christ and His church (Rom 12:3-21, 1Cor 12:4-12) and He empowers
believers to witness to the world (Matt 28:18-20, Acts 1:8).
Through repentance
and personal faith in Jesus Christ we are forgiven our sins, reborn
by the Holy Spirit and become Children of God. (Rom 3:10-12, Rom
3:23, 2Cor 7:9-10 Eph. 2:8-9, 1John 1:9, Eph 1:3-8, John 1:12-13, 2Cor
5:17)
The
church is the living body of Christ on earth (Col 1:18, Eph 2:19-22)
and Jesus is the head and the source of its life. (Eph 1:20-22, 5:23-24)
Jesus the King will
return to earth (Acts 1:10-11, 1Tim 4:16-17) to raise the dead,
judge the world and establish his glorious Kingdom. (John 5:24-29). Those
who have been reborn will live with Him forever. (1Thess.4:18, John
3:16, 1John 5:11-13).
