Real Life Church Core Beliefs

We are a Christian & Missionary Alliance Church, focused on Jesus and His Supremacy in everything, committed to the mandate of the great commission, and founded on the fourfold gospel of Christ our Savior, Sanctifier, Healer and Coming King.

Brief Summary of Beliefs:

God
We believe in one God — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — the perfect and eternal Creator of all things.

Jesus Christ

Jesus is fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin, died for our sins, rose from the dead, and now reigns as our Savior, High Priest, and Coming King.

The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit lives in every believer — guiding, teaching, empowering, and producing spiritual fruit. He also convicts the world of sin and draws people to Jesus.

The Bible

The Bible is God’s inspired Word — trustworthy, true, and the final authority for what we believe and how we live.

Humanity
All people are made in the image of God but have fallen into sin. We are separated from God and in need of salvation through Jesus Christ.

Salvation

Salvation is a free gift, available to all through faith in Jesus. When we repent and believe, we are forgiven, born again, and welcomed into God’s family.

Sanctification
God calls every believer to grow in holiness and be filled with the Holy Spirit — set apart for His purposes and empowered for life and service.

Healing

Jesus’ death provides healing for the whole person — body, soul, and spirit. We pray for the sick and believe God still heals today.

The Church
The Church is made up of all who trust in Jesus. We gather to worship, pray, learn, serve, and share the Good News — locally and globally.

Resurrection & Judgment

Everyone will be raised from the dead. Jesus will judge all people with perfect justice. Believers will enjoy eternal life with God; those who reject Him will face eternal separation.

The Return of Jesus
Jesus is coming again — personally, visibly, and soon. His return is our great hope and motivates us to live with purpose and faithfulness.
