Christ Church Glenwood

Is a family Church that meets together on:

Sunday mornings at 09h00 @ Durban Girls High School

We meet to grow three relationships: God’s relationship with us (by listening to him through his Word); our relationship with God (by talking to him and praising him in prayer and song); and our relationships with each other (to serve one another along the way).

What we Believe

Our need: We believe that humankind was created to rule the world under a loving and committed Creator, God. We believe that humankind refused to be ruled by the loving creator, and rebelled against Him. As a result, humankind has infuriated God, incurring His wrath to be against us. The Bible tells us that God will not allow us to rebel forever. His punishment for our rebellion is death and judgement.

God’s response: Being unable to do anything about this situation ourselves, our judge [God] has mercy on us and puts into action a plan of rescue. God, the offended party, decides to have mercy on the offenders by paying the price for rebellion against God, himself. He does this by becoming a man [the Lord Jesus Christ] and dying on the cross in our place, thus taking the punishment and dying the death that we deserved. Jesus rose from the dead as the judge of the world. Having survived death, he now has the right to call for a response.

The only response: The Bible records only two responses to this news. We accept God’s plan for rescue by relying on the death of Jesus to bring us forgiveness and on His resurrection to give us hope of surviving death. Alternately we can ignore God's plan, continuing to run life on our own. We believe that there cannot be any spiritual life without the death of Jesus. There cannot be any hope for life after death without the resurrection of Jesus.
