About God
God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Genesis 1:1,26-27; 3:22; Psalm 90:2; Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 1:2; 2 Corinthians 13:14
About Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Matthew 1:22-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5; 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14-15; 1 Corinthians 15:3,4;
Romans 1:3,4; Acts 1:9-11; 1Timothy 6:14-15; Titus 2:13
About the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is co-equal with the Father and the Son of God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians, we seek to live under His control daily.

About the Bible
The Bible is God’s Word to us. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any mixture of error.
2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21; 2 Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105, 119:160; 12:6; Proverbs 30:5
About Salvation
We believe that salvation is a free gift from God; it is not deserved nor can it be earned through our works. We believe that we are saved by God’s grace, which we access by placing our faith in Jesus Christ. Because we believe in Jesus, we will show obedience through repentance, confession, Christian baptism, and living a Christian life led by the Holy Spirit.
Roman 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6; 1:12; Titus 3:5; Romans 5:1-2; Acts 2:38;
1 Peter 3:18-22; Acts 8:26-40
About Eternity
People were created to exist forever. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence. We will either exist eternally in Hell separated from God by sin, or eternally with God in heaven through forgiveness and salvation offered through the blood of Jesus Christ.
John 3:16; 14:17; Romans 6:23; 8:17-18; Revelation 20:15; 1 Corinthians 2:7-9
About the Church
We believe in the church of Jesus Christ, founded on the Day of Pentecost, consisting of all Christians everywhere, and organized into local assemblies, called churches. We are an independent church that is striving to restore New Testament Christianity as described in the Book of Acts. The Tuttle Christian Church is a part of a loose fellowship of churches known as the Independent Christian Churches.
Matt 16: 13–18; Acts 2:37–47; 4:32–37; 6:1–7; 11:19–30
This statement of faith does not exhaust the extent of our beliefs. The Bible itself is the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, and is the sole and final source of all that we believe. For purposes of Tuttle Christian Church’s faith, doctrine, practice, policy and discipline, our eldership and ministers are our final interpretive authority on the Bible’s meaning and application.
