THE HISTORY
OF GALILEE
Welcome to the History of Galilee Church.
Witness our progress, our determination and God's work within our church and community.
aBOUT THE NATURE OF gOD
God is one in three persons. Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
God sent His son, Jesus to save this world from sin.
ABOUT SALVATION
Jesus lived the perfect life we could not live and died the sacrificial death we could not die to save us from our sin.
​
To accept the free gift of salvation and the gift of the Holy Spirit which Jesus has earned for us, by faith, we must believe that Jesus is the son of God, repent of our sin, be immersed into the name of Jesus and rise up a new person, saved from sin, to live a new life of faith in Him.
RESTORATION
Our Church is a part of the “Restoration Movement.” The Restoration Movement’s goal is to simply do what the Bible says and live out our faith in the most Biblically authentic way possible.
​
We believe that the Bible is inerrant in its original manuscripts and we believe that the Bible we have today accurately represents that inerrancy for its complete authority in our lives.
​
We approach matters of doctrine within the Body of Christ with the motto of: “In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, but in all things love.
WHO WE SEEK
We seek the same people Jesus sought. Everyone. We will welcome anyone who comes in peace to worship with us. While Church membership at Galilee is offered conditionally, all are invited to join together with us to grow and learn more about God, no matter their background or struggles with sin.
