ABOUT US

Commonwealth Avenue Baptist Church (CABC) is a multicultural, Christ-centered congregation that adheres to all the doctrines revealed in the Bible.

I. Bible

We believe that the Bible is divinely inspired, without error, and is the final authority in matters of faith and morality.

II. God

We believe in one God who eternally exists in three divine Persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit.

We believe that God is the Creator of all things, limitless in knowledge and power.

We believe God is perfect, sovereign, holy, just, righteous, merciful, loving, faithful and immutable.

III. Jesus Christ

We believe in Jesus Christ, God incarnate, fully human and fully God.

We believe Jesus lived a sinless life and was crucified to pay for the sins of the world.

We believe Jesus was resurrected after the third day of His death, ascending into heaven and taking His place at the right hand of God the Father.

We believe that Jesus will soon come again - first to take His Bride, the Church to heaven and then to reign on the earth as King of kings and Lord of lords.

IV. Holy Spirit

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the third person of the trinity, who was sent by Jesus Christ to convict the world of its guilt. The Holy Spirit guides, equips, rebukes, and empowers believers for Christ-like living.

V. Man

We believe that God created Adam and Even in His image and likeness. But when Adam and Eve sinned, the whole human race fell into judgment.

We believe all human beings are born with a sinful nature and can only be saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

VI. Salvation

We believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Whoever believes in Jesus Christ is saved and forgiven of all sin.

VII. Church

We believe that the Church is composed of everyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. The Church is the bride of Christ, regenerate by the Holy Spirit and justified by grace through faith.

VIII. Ordinances

We believe the Lord Jesus Christ mandated two ordinances: baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We believe in baptism by immersion as instructed in the Holy Scriptures. We believe in celebrating the Lord’s Supper in remembrance of Jesus Christ.
