Mission Statement: 

In obedience to God, as a Christ-centered body of believers, we commit to discipleship, enable and encourage one another to love, worship, and serve our Savior, Jesus Christ. Furthermore, we commit to share the Good News and ourselves with our neighbors in No Division Christian Assembly, in the surrounding communities, and throughout the world.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

These are the core beliefs of the membership of No Division Christian Assembly.
1. The sole basis of our belief is the Bible composed of the 66 books of the Old and New Testament. We believe that Scripture in its entirety originated with God, and that it was given through the instrumentality of chosen men. We believe that the Scriptures are inerrant (not liable to prove false or mistaken) and infallible (incapable of teaching deception) in the original manuscripts. They serve as the unique, full and final authority on all matters of faith and practice.

2. We believe that there is one true God, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - each of Whom possess equally all the attributes of deity and the characteristics of personality. God the Father is the One who designed and fulfills His plan of redemption through the Son. Scripture states that He is the Father of all creation, of Israel, of all believers, and of Christ the Son. He is the ultimate object of all praise, worship and glory. By His sovereign power He sustains His Creation.

3. We believe that Jesus Christ, the Son, though eternally co-existing with the Father, came into the world to become the Redeemer of all peoples. He was united forever with a human nature by a miraculous conception and virgin birth. He is true man and true God. He lived a life of perfect obedience to the Father and voluntarily atoned for the sins of all men by dying on the cross as their substitute, thus satisfying, with His shed blood, divine justice concerning sin, and accomplishing salvation for all who trust in Him alone. He rose from the dead in the same body, though glorified, in which He lived and died.
He ascended into heaven where He, the only Mediator between God and man, continually makes intercession for His own. We believe in "that Blessed Hope", His personal, visible, pre-millennial and imminent return to earth to consummate history and the eternal plan of God.

4. We believe that the Holy Spirit, omnipresent from all eternity, He inspired God's chosen men to write the Scriptures. He enlightens the minds of sinners, awakens in them recognition of their need of a Savior and regenerates them. At the point of salvation, He permanently indwells every believer becoming their source of assurance, strength and wisdom. He uniquely endows each and every believer with spiritual gifts for the edification of the body of Christ. He guides believers in understanding and applying the Scriptures. His power and control are appropriated by faith, making it possible to live a life of Christ-like character and to bear fruit to the glory of the Father. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
5. We believe that man was created by God in His own image, and therefore, like God is a personal, rational, and moral being. Originally created to have fellowship with God, man willfully disobeyed God and suffered the corruption of his nature, thus rendering him unable to please God, and incurred both physical death and spiritual death (separation from God). As a consequence, all human beings are born with a sinful nature and are in need of the saving grace of God.

6. We believe that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God, a relationship in which they are eternally secure. Having undertaken to save and keep believers forever, apart from all human merit, He, Who cannot fail, will in the end present every one of them faultless before the presence of His glory and conformed to the image of His Son.
7. We believe that Heaven is a literal place where God will wipe away every tear and there will be no more death, mourning, crying, or pain. Believers will live forever in God ‚’s presence. We also, believe in a literal hell, which is a place of physical and spiritual torment, experienced as a result of eternal separation form God. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (John 3:16; John 14:7; Romans 6:23; Romans 8:17-18; Revelation 20:15, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)

8. We believe that the Church, the body of Christ, is a spiritual organism composed of all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. Members of this body, in Scripture, are directed to associate themselves in autonomous local assemblies in order to worship, to receive instruction, to fellowship, to pray and to observe the ordinances. We believe that the local church should be independent, self-governing, and free from any denominational control. Two ordinances have been committed to the body of Christ - baptism and the Lord's Supper.

9. Baptism is the immersion of a believer in water as a public testimony of the believer's faith in the crucified, buried and risen Christ. It is also a public statement of desire to walk in the newness of life in Christ. The Lord's Supper was instituted by Jesus for the remembrance of His atoning death. These two ordinances are to be observed until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

10. We believe that God has given parents the responsibility to bring their children up in the nurture and discipline of the Lord. We believe that it is the parents responsibility to educate and disciple their children in the truth of God. We believe that the church must work to compliment the parent ‚’s efforts and facilitate Godly living within the home. (Ephesians 6:4, Proverbs 22:6, Deuteronomy 6:6-9, Joshua 24:15)

11. We believe that God calls us ‚– with a holy calling -- to walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. God wants us to live in the power of His indwelling Holy Spirit, so we will not fulfill the lusts of our physical bodies. We believe that the fallen, Adamic nature of the flesh cannot be eradicated in this life. Therefore, keeping ourselves constantly in subjection to Christ, we must allow God ‚’s Holy Spirit to live through us in a daily ‚"walk ‚" of faith. Otherwise, the flesh will certainly demonstrate its presence in our lives, to the Lord ‚’s dishonor. It is the responsibility and privilege of every Christian to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ and to seek and to make growing disciples. (Leviticus 26:30, Philippians 2:13, Ephesians 5:18, 1 Peter 3:15, Galatians 5:16) We declare and establish this Constitution to preserve and secure the principles of our faith and to govern the body in a decent and orderly manner. This Constitution will preserve the liberties of each individual church member and the freedom of action of this body in relation to other churches.
