A Beautiful Me’s STATEMENT OF FAITH:
THE BIBLE. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God.
2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:21
GOD. We believe there is one God, creator of all – three persons in one, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19, Genesis 1:1, John 10:30, John 14:26
JESUS CHRIST. We believe in the deity of Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death, His Resurrection, His Ascension to the right hand of God, His personal return in power and glory. Through Christ alone, everyone can be saved.
John 3:16, Isaiah 7:14, Mark 16:19, Luke 1:35, John 2:11, I Corinthians 15:3-4, Ephesians 2:8-9
DIGNITY & RESPECT. We believe that God endows all human life with inherent dignity at every stage of development and that human life should be respected and protected from conception to natural death. Further, because we are created in the image of God, we believe that every person must be afforded compassion, kindness, and respect. We believe that we should demonstrate love toward all people.
We believe God loves us unconditionally. This capacity for love is one of the ways in which we are created in the image of God. When we love God, allow God to love us, we can love ourselves, and then love others.
Psalm 139:14-16, Psalm 51:5, Mark 12:30-31, Luke 6:31
MARRIAGE & GENDER. We believe that marriage is the exclusive, God-ordained covenant relationship between one man and one woman. We believe that God creates each person with an immutable biological sex – male or female – that reflects the image and nature of God. Further, we believe that individuals flourish when they find and embrace their identity in Christ as beloved sons or daughters of God.
Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 2:24, Romans 1:26-29, Ephesians 5:23-32
STATEMENT OF FINAL AUTHORITY. The Statement of Faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of A Beautiful Me’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy, and discipline, our Board of Directors is A Beautiful Me’s final interpretive authority of the Bible’s meaning and application.
