ABOUT
US
Living
Faith
is dedicated
to one
thing
alone:
Truth.
This
equates
to a
commitment
to preach
the uncompromised
gospel
of Jesus
Christ.
We deeply
desire
that
all people
come
to place
their
full
trust
in Jesus
as their
Lord
and Savior.
We invite
you to
step
out of
the ordinary
and experience
for yourself
what
God is
doing
in the
lives
of people
at Living
Faith.
Check
us out.
We offer
many
diverse
tools
to help
you to
mature
in faith
and discover
your
God given
potential,
gifting,
and destiny.
We believe
that
together
we can
reach
out to
impact
the lives
of our
families
and friends
in Northern
Virginia
with
the truth
of the
love
of God.
Mission
To
reach
the unreached;
To church
the unchurched;
To
bring
believers
to spiritual
maturity;
To
be able to
effectively
to do
the work
of the
ministry;
And
give
all to
the glory
of God;
Through
developing
a caring
church,
to
reach
Northern
Virginia
with
the
radical
message
of
God’s
love
and
power.
Reaching
all
who do
not yet
know
Jesus; all
who are
hurting;
all without
hope;
and any
who once
followed
and now
need
to restore
fellowship.
To
enforce
on the
enemy,
through
believers
who are
ruling
and reigning
in life,
the defeat
Jesus
inflicted
on him
2000
years
ago.
To produce,
through
training
in the
Word,
a people
worthy
of the
name: “People
of God.” A
people
who will
live
uncompromisingly
in a
compromised
world
; A kingdom-minded
people
whose
sole
desire
is to
please
our King,
and whose
sole
motivation
lies
in the
truth
that…….“
The
only
thing
we take
with
us when
we leave
are people!
Vision
Living
Faith
is where
people
who are
hungry
for Truth
come
to get
fed.
In turn,
that
Truth
begins
to grow
up and
become
something
worth
living
for;
something
worth
sharing
with
the people
in your
life.
That
Truth
changes
you and
allows
you to
mature
spiritually
and become
effective.
We believe
that
the testimony
of changed
lives
will
draw
people
to Jesus.
Our passion
is to
see people
develop
their
God-given
gifts
and fulfill
the vision
He put
in their
hearts.
Living
Faith
is a
ministry
designed
to help
you along
your
way in
the incredible
journey
of becoming
all that
God desires
you to
be.
What
We Believe
- The
Bible
is the
only
inspired,
infallible
and authoritative
written
Word
of God.
There
is one
God,
eternally
existent
in three
persons:
God the
Father,
God the
Son,
and God
the Holy
Spirit.
- In
the Deity of our
Lord Jesus
Christ; His virgin
birth; His sinless
life; His miracles;
His vicarious and atoning
death; His bodily
resurrection; His ascension
to the right
hand of the
Father, and in
His future personal
return to this
earth in power
and glory.
- The
only means
of being cleansed
from sin and
being reconciled
to God is through
personal repentance
and faith in the
completed work
of Christ.
- Regeneration
by the Holy
Spirit is absolutely
necessary for personal
salvation.
- The
redemptive
work
of
Christ
on
the
cross
provides
salvation
and
wholeness
for
every
area
of
man’s
life
including
healing
of
his
body.
All
of
these
are
received
by
personal
faith.
- The
baptism of the
Holy Spirit,
according to Acts
2:4, is given
to believers who ask
for it, and receive
it.
- In
the sanctifying power
of the Holy
Spirit whose
indwelling enables
us to live
a life acceptable
to God.
- In
the resurrection of both
the saved and the
lost, the one
to everlasting life,
the other to everlasting
damnation.
- The
establishment
of
God’s
Kingdom
on
the
earth
is
the
primary
function
of
the
Church
in
each
successive
generation.
