Statement of Faith

Author's Note: This May I am getting confirmed at my church. In order to be confirmed, you need to write a statement of faith, which is basically some long essay saying what you believe. It's been done for a while, but I feel like sharing it now. Here you go my lovelies.


I believe in God. I believe that He created the Heavens and the Earth, and everything in them.  I believe that Jesus Christ walked the earth as man and God at the same time. I believe Jesus was born to the virgin Mary, died on the cross for our sins, and now sits at the right hand of our Lord in Heaven.

The Ten Commandments are ten rules that God instructs us to live by. And when we break one of them, we sin. Some sins seem more serious than others, but a sin is still a sin. When Jesus was hanging on the cross, suffering in pain, he was doing it for us. He died for our sins so we would be able to have eternal life. Knowing that humans aren’t perfect, and will sin against His ruling, God forgives us for our sins. All we have to do is admit to the wrongdoing and ask for forgiveness. 1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”

I believe in the Father. I believe that he is the creator of all things on this Earth. I believe that without him, nothing would be here. There would be no world, no people, no life.

I believe in the Son. I believe that Jesus Christ was sent down from Heaven to die for our sins. I believe that he is the savior of all people who put their faith in the Lord.

I believe in the Holy Spirit. I believe that God is with us today, wherever we are. I believe that his word is floating among us. I believe that God is actively in each and every one of our lives.

“For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life,” John 3:16 states. I believe that there will be a day that Jesus Christ comes back to this Earth, and everyone who believes in him will go up to Heaven, where they will live eternally with the Father and those who don’t will go to Hell.

Everyone on this Earth is here for a reason. We all have a purpose in life, and the only one who will lead us in the right direction is God. Jeremiah 29:11 says,“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

I believe that as a Christian, it is my responsibility to share the word of the Bible with people who don’t have faith in God. “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned,” is written in Mark 16:15-16. As a human being, we cannot force someone to think certain things, or have trust in the Lord, however I do believe that we need to share the Lord’s word with nonbelievers. Everyone deserves to know the Father. Everyone deserves to have a relationship with Him, some people just need to be introduced to him. I believe that is my job.

I believe that God has the answers to all of our questions. I believe that any problems we have, God knows how they will be solved. I believe that it is our duty to live up to the Lord’s expectations, and be as Holy as we can. I believe that because he gave us so much, the least we can give him is our trust, our faith, our life. I believe that anything we say, anything we do, any decisions we make, we should do all with God in mind. 1 Corinthians 10:31 says, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”

The things that God has done for us are breathtaking. The fact that he let his own son die for all of us, and now lets everyone live eternally through him, is really quite amazing. I believe that God wants us all to find hope in Him, have faith in Him, put our whole entire lives in his hands. I believe that if we trust completely in God, our lives will be nearly perfect, we will find ease in the struggles, and rejoice in the love of our Father.
