in-depth explanation of our beliefs.
We believe that the content of person’s faith matters. This conviction is rooted NOT in some kind of pride (e.g., we want to be right and better than everyone who disagrees with us), nor is it rooted in the fallacy that we have it all figured out. Instead, we acknowledge that God alone is perfect and that our doctrines represent our very best and most faithful efforts at interpreting the Bible. The Bible is the final authority on all matters at Fayetteville Christian Church. Consequently, there are no organizations, synods, committees, conventions, or pastors who oversee our church doctrines and who may or may not vote such into or out of existence. Each believer, aided by the Holy Spirit, has the responsibility to engage God’s Word for themselves and the church elders are charged with the responsibility of maintaining sound doctrine in the congregation. Above is a very brief overview of how we interpret at least twelve key doctrines.
