Ambassadors For Christ Ministries - Louisville
Statement of Faith
Welcome to the Statement of Faith page for Ambassadors For Christ Ministries in Louisville. As a Christian organization dedicated to serving the community, we believe in the power of faith and the importance of sharing our beliefs. In this comprehensive statement, we will delve into our core values, guiding principles, and how we interpret the Word of God.
Our Beliefs
At Ambassadors For Christ Ministries, we hold steadfast to the following beliefs:
1. The Trinity
We believe in the existence of one God who exists in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity is co-eternal, co-equal, and fully God.
2. The Bible
As the inspired and infallible Word of God, we wholeheartedly believe in the authority and power of the Bible. We view the Scriptures as the ultimate guide for faith and practice, and we strive to adhere to its teachings in all aspects of our lives.
3. Salvation
We believe that salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. It is not achieved through our own efforts or good works, but solely through God's unmerited favor.
4. Jesus Christ
We affirm the divinity and humanity of Jesus Christ. He is the eternal Son of God, born of a virgin, crucified for our sins, and resurrected from the dead. Through His sacrifice, we have redemption and eternal life.
5. Holy Spirit
We acknowledge the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity. The Spirit dwells within believers, empowering and guiding them in their spiritual journey. We believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the ongoing work of sanctification.
6. The Church
The Church, consisting of all true believers in Christ, is the body of Christ and the bride of Christ. We emphasize the importance of fellowship, worship, and discipleship within the local church community.

1. Love
We strive to love God with all our hearts, souls, and minds, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. Love is the foundation of our actions, relationships, and outreach efforts.
2. Integrity
We value honesty, transparency, and moral uprightness. We believe in conducting ourselves with integrity in all our dealings, both personally and as an organization.
3. Compassion

5. Excellence
We strive for excellence in all areas of our ministry. We seek to glorify God by giving our best and being good stewards of the resources entrusted to us.
Interpretation of the Word
As part of our commitment to sound biblical interpretation, we approach the Scriptures with reverence and careful study. Our interpretation aims to be faithful to the original intent of the authors and relevant to contemporary contexts.
We believe in the importance of hermeneutics, acknowledging the historical, cultural, and literary contexts in which the Bible was written. Through prayer, diligent study, and reliance on the Holy Spirit, we seek to discern God's intended meaning and apply it in our lives today.
