Our Beliefs

The foundation of Kissimmee Fellowship’s worship and work are based on the historic Christian faith as revealed in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. As with Christians throughout the centuries, we affirm the historic Nicene and Apostles’ Creeds and the following truths:

The Scriptures

We believe the Bible is God's Word, completely trustworthy and without error. It is the ultimate authority for all that we believe and practice in life.

The Trinity

The Bible teaches that one real and personal God exists eternally in three persons: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Humanity

The Bible teaches that human beings are created gloriously in the image of their creator to enjoy God and live out his purposes in this world. Nevertheless, the human race, on account of our first parents, has become estranged from its Creator through the overwhelming power of sin. Left to ourselves, we would not fulfill the purpose for which we were created, but instead perish forever.

The Person of Jesus Christ

Out of God’s sheer love and grace, God the Son took on human flesh in the person of Jesus Christ in order to deliver humanity from its lost condition. In so doing, Jesus lived a sinless life, obeyed God's law completely, suffered and died on the cross of Calvary, and then was physically raised on the third day. He did all this to accomplish the salvation of his people.

Faith and Repentance

Each person can receive this salvation by renouncing their former manner of life and believing in Jesus Christ alone. This is not something we earn (by good works), but itself a gift of God’s grace. An obedient life (good works) is lived in the power of the Holy Spirit and evidence of the salvation we have freely received by grace.

The Church

The church is the people of God from all ages, saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, the head of the church, also called "the body of Christ." Christians join together in local communities or churches to worship their Lord, to grow together in his likeness, and to enjoy serving him together.

Kissimmee Fellowship is a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). A denomination committed to the historic Christian faith, the starting of new churches in North America and to the spreading of the gospel across the world. A more detailed statement of our doctrinal standards can be found in the Westminster Confession of Faith (WCF).
