What We Believe
Although West Side Church of God does not have an official creed, these are some of the basic beliefs of our faith:

The Bible is. . .

·  the Bible is God’s inspired, inerrant, and infallible word

·   the final authority for Christian faith and living

·   the instruction manual by which the Church is led today

God exists eternally in three persons:

·    Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

·    God is creator of all things

·    God is perfect in love, and is righteous in all ways—our Savior

·    The Holy Spirit is the power of God to dwell in the life of the believer

·     Worship defines our relationship to God (John 4:23)

Jesus Christ is God’s eternal son:

·     born of a virgin, He took the form of man

·     through His sinless life He taught us how to live

·     He was crucified as a sacrifice for our sins

·     He rose from the dead, according to the scriptures

·     He returned to heaven to prepare a place for us

·     He will come again to receive believers unto the presence of God

The Church is the living body of Christ:

·     on mission for Christ in the world

·     Christ is the head of the Church

·     division within the Body of Christ is inappropriate

•     the Body is composed of all who have received Christ as Savior and have accepted Him as Lord
