Beliefs

Tenets of the Church

Open each tenet to read the belief statement and Scripture references.

Tenet 01The Bible+

We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the final authority for faith, conduct, doctrine, and ministry life. Scripture reveals God's will, points us to salvation in Jesus Christ, and equips believers for every good work. Because the Bible is trustworthy, we teach it, study it, obey it, and use it as the foundation for worship, discipleship, leadership, family life, and mission.

2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21

Tenet 02The One True God+

We believe there is one true and living God, maker of heaven and earth, eternally existing and revealed as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God is holy, loving, just, merciful, all-powerful, and worthy of all worship. We confess the unity of God and the full deity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and we seek to live in reverent obedience before Him.

Genesis 1:1; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14

Tenet 03The Depraved Nature of Humanity+

We believe humanity was created in the image of God, but through sin all people have fallen short of God's glory. Apart from God's grace, the human heart is unable to save itself and stands in need of repentance, forgiveness, regeneration, and redemption. This is why the gospel is necessary: every person must be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ and renewed by the Holy Spirit.

Romans 3:23; John 3:3-5; Titus 3:5

Tenet 04The Savior+

We believe our need for salvation is fully met in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is truly God and truly man, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and without sin. Through His death on the cross, resurrection from the dead, ascension to the Father, present intercession, and promised return, Jesus provides forgiveness, victory, hope, and eternal life for all who believe.

Matthew 1:21; John 1:1; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4

Tenet 05Repentance, Justification, and Sanctification+

We believe every person is called to repent from sin and place faith in Jesus Christ. Through faith, the believer is justified before God, not by personal merit, but by the grace of God and the finished work of Christ. We also believe the Holy Spirit sanctifies believers, setting us apart for God and shaping us into the character of Christ. This growth continues through the Word, prayer, obedience, fellowship, and daily surrender.

Acts 2:38; Romans 5:1; 1 Corinthians 6:11

Tenet 06Baptism and the Lord's Supper+

We believe water baptism is for responsible believers who have repented and trusted in Christ. Baptism is an outward sign of an inward work of grace, identifying the believer with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. We also observe the Lord's Supper as a sacred remembrance of Christ's sacrifice, a proclamation of His death, and a call to examine ourselves, walk in love, and live in covenant fellowship.

Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38; 1 Corinthians 11:23-33

Tenet 07Baptism, Gifts, and Fruit of the Holy Spirit+

We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the continuing work of the Spirit in the life of the church. The Holy Spirit empowers believers for witness, worship, holy living, service, and spiritual discernment. We believe the gifts of the Spirit are given for the building up of the body of Christ, and the fruit of the Spirit should be evident in the character, relationships, and daily life of every believer.

Acts 2:3-4; Galatians 5:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12

Tenet 08Divine Healing+

We believe God is able to heal and that divine healing is part of His compassionate care for people. The church is called to pray for the sick in faith, trusting God's power, wisdom, timing, and will. We encourage believers to seek God in prayer, receive pastoral care, and walk with wisdom while trusting the Lord as healer, comforter, and sustainer.

Isaiah 53:4-5; James 5:14-16

Tenet 09Tithes and Offerings+

We believe giving is an act of worship, obedience, stewardship, and love. Tithes, offerings, and freewill generosity support the work of ministry, missions, care, discipleship, and the practical needs of the church. Believers are encouraged to give faithfully, cheerfully, and with integrity, recognizing that everything we have belongs to God.

Malachi 3:6-10; 2 Corinthians 9:6-9

Tenet 10The Second Coming and the Next Life+

We believe Jesus Christ will return in glory, the dead will be raised, and every person will stand before God. The hope of Christ's return calls believers to watchfulness, holiness, mission, and perseverance. We believe in eternal life for those who are in Christ and final judgment for those who reject Him. This truth gives urgency to evangelism and comfort to believers who remain faithful.

Acts 1:11; John 5:28-29; Revelation 22:12

Tenet 11Marriage and Family Life+

We honor marriage and family as gifts from God and foundations for mutual love, faithfulness, care, fellowship, and the nurture of children. Families are called to reflect Christlike love, forgiveness, responsibility, and spiritual formation. The church supports homes through teaching, prayer, counseling, discipleship, and pastoral care so that families may grow in faith and serve God's purpose together.

Genesis 2:18-25; Matthew 19:4-6

Member Story

Found a church home in Denver

"We came to MHC during a season of transition and expected to sit quietly in the back. Instead, someone learned our names, checked on our children, and helped us find a Life Group. Sunday worship gave us language for hope again, and the church family made Denver feel less unfamiliar."
