We believe the purpose of mankind is to glorify God (1 Corinthians 10:31). We believe our objectives, as His church, are to edify believers (Ephesians 4:11-16) and evangelize unbelievers (Matthew 28:18-20) through the means set forth in the New Testament of the Holy Bible (Acts2:42-47). We therefore shall provide regular opportunities for public worship as we observe and sustain the ordinances, doctrines, and ethics set forth in the New Testament for the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. We shall teach, promote, and maintain the teachings and doctrines of that Christian denomination universally known as the Church, the bride of Christ. We pledge to nurture her members through Christian education and to channel her offerings to support the objects of the Redeemer’s Kingdom, and to preach and propagate among all people the gospel of the Revelation of God through Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.

PURPOSE

Basic Functions of the Church

​

The purpose of Five Points Community Church is to glorify God through His Son the Lord Jesus Christ, the Head of the Church, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

​

The basic functions of the Church which shall enable it to accomplish its purpose may be summarized as follows: (1) worship,

(2) evangelism, (3) discipleship, (4) ministry, (5) stewardship, and (6) fellowship.

 

Worship is the experience of communion with the living and holy God which leads to an awareness of His holiness, majesty and grace.

 

Evangelism is the presentation of the gospel in a clear, uncompromising way so that people in our communities, both local and worldwide, may come to a personal faith in and submission to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

 

Discipleship is the instruction and application of the Bible in order to build up each member to maturity in Christ.

 

Ministry is the meeting of spiritual and physical needs of the local Church and community at large in Jesus’ name empowered by the Holy Spirit.

 

Stewardship is the encouraging of each member to accept responsibility in the use of time, talents, and material wealth –both personal and corporate – in the service of the Lord Jesus Christ.

​

Fellowship is participating with other believers in openly expressing the love of Christ.
