We Believe...

Overflow Church recognizes that it cannot, and does not desire to, bind the conscience of individuals in areas where Scripture is silent. Rather, each believer is to be lead in those areas by God, to whom he or she alone is ultimately responsible. We believe the Statement of Beliefs to be an accurate summary of what Scripture teaches.

We believe…

• The Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

• That there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

• In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.

• That for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential, resulting in faith in the saving work of Jesus Christ.

• In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.

• In the baptism of the Holy Spirit and in the exercise of spiritual gifts.

• In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.

• In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
