CROSSROADS: THE CHURCH

WE WANT TRANSFORMATION

We are a collective of Jesus followers committed to making disciples (Matt. 28:19). Our great hope is to transform the City of Anderson through the power of the Holy Spirit by freeing the captives, equipping the saints, and reclaiming the city for Christ. Our church gathers regularly in the heart of Anderson every Sunday morning at 10:30. We believe that God has strategically located us to effect change in our city. Our desire is to transform the spiritual climate of Anderson.

We are vessels.

We do not believe that the Holy Spirit of God is a Swiss Army multi-tool that we just take out of our pocket whenever we need him. Rather, the Holy Spirit is personal. We do not use him; instead, he uses us to bring the kingdom of God near to the hearts of people. We urge you to join us as we pursue transformation, not only in our hearts, but in every heart of every person in our greater community.

Join us as we make disciples.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.”

— MATTHEW 28:19

WHAT WE BELIEVE

There is only one true God who is the eternal King, Creator and Redeemer of all that is. He is perfectly holy, just, loving and truthful. He has revealed Himself to be eternally self-existent--one being in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
~ “God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.”
The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
Humankind was created in the image of God to know and enjoy Him yet we willfully rejected the Lordship and glory of God for which we were intended. Because of this, sickness, death, and judgment entered the world and now creation experiences the effects and consequences of sin.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the one and only Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and is God's Anointed One, empowered by the Holy Spirit to inaugurate God's kingdom on earth. He was crucified for our sins, died, was buried, resurrected and ascended into heaven, and is now alive today in the presence of God the Father and in His people. He is "true God" and "true man."
We are saved by God's grace, through faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Anyone can be restored to fellowship with God through repenting, believing and receiving Jesus as their Savior and Lord. The Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates, justifies and adopts us as we enter the kingdom of God as His sons and daughters.
“believe and receive Jesus as your Savior and Lord.”
In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live holy and minister supernaturally. The baptism of the Holy Spirit according to Acts 1:4-8 and 2:4 is poured out on believers that they might have power to be witnesses.
The victorious redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides freedom from the power of the enemy--sin, lies, sickness and torment.
The Church consists of all who put their faith in Jesus Christ. He gave His church the ordinances of baptism and communion. The Church exists to carry on the ministry of Jesus Christ and further advance His kingdom by undoing the works of the enemy, preaching and living the good news of God's love, and discipling the nations--baptizing and teaching them to love and obey God.
In the ever-increasing government of God and in the Blessed Hope, which is the glorious visible return of our Lord Jesus Christ for His overcoming bride--His church. Heaven and hell are real places. There will be a resurrection of the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other everlasting death.

“ All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.”

— 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
