Denomination: Presbyterian
OUR PURPOSE IS SIMPLE Centralia Presbyterian Church seeks to win and disciple those called by God in the greater Chester area by ministering to individuals and families spiritually, emotionally, and physically. We also work to equip them to serve and honor Jesus Christ in all areas and seasons of life. We are committed to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ by supporting mercy and Gospel ministries in Chester and throughout the world. In all of this, we seek to bring all glory to God.
OUR DOCTRINAL POSITION We adhere to the doctrines of Scripture as found in the Westminster Standards. We believe the Bible to be the infallible, inerrant Word of God. We believe eternal life is God’s gracious gift. Heaven is free. We cannot earn it, nor do we deserve it. We believe man is in an awful dilemma. By nature he is a sinner. He is utterly powerless to do anything to save himself. We believe God is both just and merciful. God is just- therefore He must punish sin. God is merciful- therefore He has provided sinners a way of salvation from sin and its consequences. We believe God’s plan of salvation was accomplished by His Son. Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He paid the penalty for the sins of men. We believe God’s gift of eternal life is received by faith.
