The 12 Pillars of Christian Faith
Just as a building needs strong footings, every believer needs these biblical foundations for spiritual stability and growth.
1. Christ the Cornerstone
Recognizing Jesus as fully God and fully man – our redeemer through His death and resurrection.
2. Scripture as Our Foundation
- God’s inspired, authoritative Word (2 Timothy 3:16)
- Daily study transforms minds and hearts
3. Prayer: Our Spiritual Lifeline
Constant communication that builds intimacy with our Heavenly Father.
4. Amazing Grace
Understanding we’re saved by God’s unearned favor, not our own efforts (Ephesians 2:8-9).
5. The Power of Repentance
- Turning from sin to righteousness
- Daily alignment with God’s will
6. The Holy Spirit’s Work
God’s presence within us – comforter, guide, and transformer of character.
7. Vital Church Connection
Christian growth happens in community through worship, teaching, and fellowship.
8. Baptism: Our Faith Declaration
Public identification with Christ’s death and resurrection.
9. Salvation Assurance
Confidence in our eternal security through Christ’s finished work.
10. Love in Action
- Loving God wholeheartedly
- Loving neighbors sacrificially
11. Gospel Urgency
Compelled to share the hope we’ve received (Matthew 28:19-20).
