Welcome to Lakeview church

One True God

There is only One True God–revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).

Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 43:10-11

The Deity of Jesus

Jesus is God. He left heaven and became a man to be our example and empathize with us. He has always been and will always be.

Matthew 28:19, Mark 1:10-11

Salvation of Man

Jesus suffered and died on the cross so we could have a relationship with God. This relationship is initiated by God through His grace and received by man- kind through faith.

Ephesians 2:8-9

Fall of Man

Mankind is broken and attracted to sin. Through sin mankind brought evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.

Genesis 3:1-7, Isaiah 59:2

The Bible

The Bible is inspired by God and is perfect with no errors. It is God‘s design and plan for mankind and our guide for faith and living.

Sanctification

Christians should grow in their relationship with Christ. Being holy is a lifelong process of overcoming sin and temptation and becoming like Jesus.

Water Baptism & Communion

Water baptism and communion should be offered on a regular basis.

1) Water Baptism by immersion after becoming a Christian. 

2) Communion (the Lord’s Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ’s suffering and death for our salvation. We serve communion in morning services on the 1st Sunday each month.

The Church

The church has three purposes on this earth 1) To reach out to sinners with the good news of what Jesus has done for them. 2) To be the representation of Jesus on this earth. 3) To bless God with our lives.

Ministers

God has placed ministers in the church to help the church carry out these purposes.
