We Believe. . .
1. We believe in the Scriptures of the Old and New
Testaments as being the
inspired Word of God, and completely inerrant in the original writings, and
of supreme and final authority in faith and practice.
2. We believe
in one God, eternally existing in three Persons; Father, Son
and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe
that man was created in the image of God; that man sinned,
and there by incurred not only
physical death, but also that spiritual
death which is separation from God; and
that all human beings are
born with a sinful nature and in the case of those who
reach moral
responsibility become sinners in thought, word and deed.
4. We believe
that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born
of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man.
5. We believe
that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the
Scripture, as a representative
and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all
who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.
6. We believe
in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His
ascension into Heaven, and
in His present life there for us, as High Priest
and Advocate.
7. We believe
in "that blessed hope" the personal return of our Lord and
Savior, Jesus Christ.
8. We believe
that all who receive by faith the Lord Jesus Christ are born
again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God.
9. We believe that the manifestation of the gifts of the Spirit
are given by the
Holy Spirit for the present
edification of the church as they are in operation
in this day and age according to the order as defined in scripture.
10. We believe in
the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting
blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting,
conscious punishment of the
lost.
In the winter of 1963 a handful of Christians wanted to know more about a relationship with the Lord, Jesus Christ, and to learn more about His Word, the Bible.
They formed the Catalina for Christ Association with Jim McKeever, Harry Stiritz, Dave Fletcher and Harvey Cowell as the first directors.
At first they met in a home on Clemente Avenue. They started with Bible studies for children and adults. Mr. McKeever was the first pastor. Soon they wanted to have Sunday service; so on February 9, 1964 the Catalina Bible Church was born.
Pastor McKeever left the Island in 1966. He was replaced by George E. DuGard.
On March 22, 1967 under the leadership of Pastor DuGard, they purchased Singing Waters, the former home of author Gene Stratton Porter (346 Catalina Ave.).
The church has seen many, many changes, but it still continues to be a place where people seek a close relationship with Jesus and His Word, the Bible.
