Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of The Worship Center DC based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
God
There is one eternally existing God who has three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of all that exists, both visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy of all glory and praise. God is perfect in love, power, holiness, goodness, knowledge, wisdom, justice, and mercy. He is unchangeable and therefore is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Jesus Christ
God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself. God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself. 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 and will return again someday to reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.

Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is 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 Believer from the
moment of salvation. He provides US with power for living, understanding of spiritual
truth, and guidance in doing what is right.

Mankind
People are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him in character. People are the
supreme object of God’s creation. Although every person has tremendous potential for good,
all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called “sin”. This attitude
separates people from God and causes many problems in life.

Salvation
Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.
The Church
The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Ressurection
Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth. People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin,
or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God
is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence.
