At Flagstone, you may not find dramatic, theatrical productions, but you’ll find a group of diverse people that love learning from the true Word of God, the Bible. Here are some basic things to know about us:
We believe that the One God exists in three distinct personalities; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (2 Corinthians 13:14) We believe that God the Father loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son so that whoever believes in Him would not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) We believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. He gave up being equal to God, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless, perfect life, shed His blood and died on the cross, was buried but raised from the dead on the third day, ascended into heaven, and now sits at the right hand of God and intercedes on our behalf. (Philippians 2: 5-11; Romans 8:34) We believe that all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. Because of sin our relationship with God was broken and we stood condemned before Him. The good news of the Gospel is that Christ took our sins upon Himself and died in our place. We are forgiven and saved because, Jesus Christ died on the Cross. This salvation is a gift of God, given to us by His Grace through our faith in Jesus Christ. There is nothing that we can do to earn our salvation. (Romans 3:23; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; Ephesians 2:1-10) We believe that Jesus Christ will return to this earth, and that this hope has a vital bearing on the life and service of the believer. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord; of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting separation from God. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; 1 Cor. 15; Hebrews 10:26-31)
