Lyons Church of Christ is a mainstream Christian Church that holds to the following core beliefs which are essentials of the Christian faith.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe God inspired all the words of the Bible without error in the original writings to give human beings His authoritative message.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe in one God eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

We believe in His full deity, His virgin birth, His real humanity, His sinless life, His substitutionary death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension into heaven, His present life and mission and His future personal return to this earth.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe in His full deity. He convicts sinners and saves those who believe in Christ. He indwells, seals and places believers into the body of Christ. He gives spiritual gifts and the power to live a Christian life.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe that God created all things as described in Genesis. We believe that human beings are created in God\u2019s image, creating every person to be of equal value to each other.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe that human beings have separated themselves from God through our sinful behaviour. We believe that sin is defined by what God teaches in the Bible. We believe that God gives eternal life to those who repent of their sin and put their faith in Christ alone.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe in the importance of the local church which is made up of believers who gather for worship, fellowship and teaching. We believe in the responsibility of the church to fulfil the Great Commission of Christ, preaching the Gospel to all nations.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We believe in the eternal existence of the soul, the resurrection of the body, the eternal blessedness of believers, and the eternal separation of those who reject God from Him.<\/p>\n
