My Profession of Faith
I am saved by the grace of Jesus Christ.
I sense a continuing assurance of His justifying, regenerating, and adopting grace.
God is my Abba Father, Jesus Christ is my Lord, and the Holy Spirit is my Sanctifier
I trust fully in Jesus Christ who was crucified, dead, buried, raised, and ascended as a sacrifice for my sins to reconcile me to his Father.
My salvation from sin began as an initial grace, continues as a present joy, and is anticipated as a certain hope. Christ has redeemed me by grace though faith and repentance. Christ continues to sanctify me as I walk in faith and obedience. Christ will yet fully save me through resurrection and glorification and I shall be like Him.
I am certain that God will continue his good work in me until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns (Phil 1:6).
I live a life of continuing repentance and faith in Christ alone for salvation. Though baptism, I have been united to Christ and his death and resurrection. Through regeneration I have received “the gift of the Holy Spirit” and an assurance of the forgiveness of my sins. I love God with all my heart, soul, and mind.
I value the life and joy of the church, worship, and the Lord’s table. I seek to fulfill Christ’s mission “to seek and to save what was lost”. I desire “the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ”. I long to hear His words: “well done, good and faithful servant”.
“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself up for me” — Galatians 2:20 niv.
“…Christ in you, the hope of glory.” — Colossians 1:27b.
Christ is my Life! Christ is my Hope! Christ is my Joy!
