The Centre for Christian Missions holds to the following doctrines of the Christian faith:

1. HOLY SCRIPTURE: We believe that the Holy Scriptures, the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New Testament, are the Word of God, inspired, infallible, authoritative, and without error in their original writings. The Bible is completely trustworthy and serves as the supreme authority for all faith and conduct.

2. GOD: We believe in one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son (Jesus Christ), and Holy Spirit.

3. JESUS CHRIST: We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true Man; is Savior and Lord; was conceived of the Holy Spirit; born of the virgin Mary; lived a sinless life; performed divine miracles; died on the cross as a sacrifice for our sins; was buried; rose bodily from the dead; ascended into heaven; now sits at the right hand of God the Father; serves as High Priest and advocate; will personally return to the earth in power and glory; and will judge the world in righteousness.

4. HOLY SPIRIT: We believe in the personality and Deity of the Holy Spirit; that His ministry is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ, to convict men of sin, regenerate the hearts of sinners, and indwell, instruct, guide, sanctify, and empower the believer for godly living and service.

5. MAN: We believe that man was created sinless and in the image of God; that man chose to disobey God and fell into sin; that apart from faith in Jesus Christ man is lost and eternally separated from God; and that only through the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit, evidenced through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, can man be saved and reconciled to God.

6. SALVATION: We believe that the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross, his burial, and his bodily resurrection from the dead provide the only grounds for justification and eternal salvation.

7. CHURCH: We believe that the Church is composed of all persons who have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and have placed saving faith in Jesus Christ and are united together into one body of which Christ is the Head.

8. SATAN: We believe that Satan is a fallen angel and that his intent is to supplant God and frustrate His purpose. His destiny is eternal punishment.

9. RESURRECTION: We believe in the bodily resurrection of all the dead. Believers will rise to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord and unbelievers will rise to judgment and everlasting punishment.
