Core Beliefs
We have no creed but Christ, no book but the Bible.
WE BELIEVE:
The Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God.
(II Timothy 3:16-17)
The One True God has revealed Himself as eternally existent.
(Psalm 90:2)
We believe in one God—Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
(John 14:9-20; I Peter 1:2; II Cor. 13:14; I John 5:1-12)
In church fellowship, (membership in the local body of Christ) just as required in the New Testament. One must:
1. believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. (John 8:24, 14:6)
2. repent of sins.(Acts 3:19)
3. confess your faith (Romans 10:9)
4. obey Christ in Christian baptism by immersion.
(Acts 2:38, Galatians 3:27, I Peter 3:21)
Everyone has a ministry for Christ with the gifts of service that He gives. (Ephesians 4:1-12, Romans 12:4-8)
That the Bible teaches that God established marriage in the beginning as a lifelong, exclusive relationship between one man and one woman; that He has reserved sexual intimacy as an expression of love and commitment between married couples; and that any intimate expression of sexuality outside of Biblical marriage is sin.
(Gen. 2:23-25; Matt. 19:4-6, 9; Rom. 1:18-31)
In the power of prayer and seek to be a praying church.
(Matthew 21:22)
Jesus came to redeem all persons of all races as we are all created in His image and in need of His saving grace.
(John 3:16)
Jesus will one day come again! (Acts 1:11)
Rogers Christian Church was born from the Restoration Movement, a 19th-century effort led by figures like Barton W. Stone and Alexander Campbell to return to the simplicity and unity of New Testament Christianity. This movement sought to strip away denominational divisions, emphasizing the Bible as the sole authority for faith and practice. At RCC, we embody this heritage by focusing on essentials—believing in Jesus as the Son of God, practicing baptism by immersion, and fostering authentic community to make disciples, as Jesus commanded (Matthew 28:19). Our aim is to live out the gospel, uniting believers in Christ’s love and truth.
