教會簡介Who we are

歡迎來到立石大家庭！Welcome to the family

立石教會從 1999 年十來個家庭開始。今天，中文堂和英文堂一共大約 300 位弟兄姊妹，分成將近 20 個小組，像一個大家庭一樣彼此照顧。我們有剛來美國讀書的學生、忙著工作和帶孩子的爸爸媽媽，也有已經當了爺爺奶奶的長輩。不論你從哪裡來、信不信，這裡都有你的位子。We started in 1999 with about ten families meeting in a rented hall. Today we're around 300 people—a Chinese congregation and an English one under one roof—with nearly twenty small groups where people really know each other. You'll meet grad students who just arrived in the States, young professionals, parents juggling everything, and grandparents. Wherever you're from and wherever you are with God, you belong here.

我們相信主耶穌基督是上帝的獨生子。We believe that Jesus Christ our Lord is the only begotten Son of God.

完整的信仰告白（11 條）Our full statement of faith

信仰宣言Statement of Faith

01
我們相信聖經所有66卷書全都是上帝所默示的並且是絕對無誤的。
02
我們相信聖經是基督徒一切信仰和行為的最高權威。
03
我們相信只有一位上帝，祂永恆地以三個位格存在，就是聖父，聖子，和聖靈。
04
我們相信主耶穌基督是上帝的獨生子。我們相信耶穌基督是由童女所生，並且他有完全的神性，是永恆的神子，他也是一生完美無罪的人子，其兩個不同的本性永遠存在於一個位格中。我們相信祂為贖世人的罪而死，而後身體復活，昇天歸父，將來要在能力與榮耀中再來。
05
我們相信聖靈是所有信徒的保惠師，他使人認罪，並引導他們悔改。他在信徒心中永遠地內住，引導他們進入真理，並使他們成聖。
06
我們相信上帝按照自己的形像造人。人最初無罪，但由於撒但的誘惑，人自願違背上帝的命令，從原來的聖潔和公義中墮落；因此，全人類現在都是罪人，繼承了敗壞的本性，完全反對上帝和他的律法，被公義地判定為在永恆中毀滅，沒有辯解或藉口。
07
我們相信唯獨主耶穌基督的寶血使我們得蒙救贖，我們相信人必需藉著信靠基督才能得救。
08
我們相信一個聖潔的普世教會，就是基督的身體，為眾聖徒所屬，教會的使命乃是對世人宣揚救恩的福音。
09
我們相信只有洗禮與聖餐是教會的聖禮。
10
我們相信上帝奇妙地且永不改變地創造了每個人：或為男人或為女人。這兩個不同且互補的性別共同反映了神的形象和本性。因此，我們相信婚姻只有一個意義：就是聖經規定的一男一女獨一專屬的聯合。
11
我們相信主耶穌基督將要再來，祂將要審判活人和死人。死人將有身體的復活，信徒復活得永生，不信者將要受永刑。

Concerning the Scriptures
01
We believe that all sixty-six books of Holy Scripture are entirely given by the inspiration of God and wholly without error.2 Tim. 3:16-17; 1 Thess. 2:13; 2 Pet. 1:19-21
02
We believe that the Bible is the supreme authority in all matters of Christian faith and conduct.2 Tim. 3:16-17; James 1:21-25
Concerning the True God
03
We believe in one God and that He eternally exists in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; Eph. 2:18
04
We believe that Jesus Christ our Lord is the only begotten Son of God. We believe in the Virgin Birth and the Deity of Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, who is also Son of Man with sinless life, and two distinct natures in one Person forever. We believe in His atoning death and bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.Matt. 1:18-25; John 1:14, 3:16; Rom. 3:25; 1 Tim. 3:16; Heb. 2:9; 1 Pet. 3:18
05
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the Counselor to all believers. He convicts people of sin and leads them to repentance. He abides forever with believers, leads them into the truth, and sanctifies them.John 3:3-8, 14:16-18, 26, 16:8-11, 13,15; Titus 3:5; Rom. 15:16; 2 Thess. 2:13
