Our Core Values & Beliefs booklet is an attempt to provide a brief summary
of who the Vineyard is and what we believe. Our Statement of Purpose is a
concise affirmation of why we exist. Our Core Values give meaning to all that
we do. They also drive our purpose, define what is central to us, position the
Vineyard in the larger body of Christ, and remove ambiguity in mission. You
can learn much more about our Core Values if you visit www.vineyardusa.org.
Our Statement of Faith provides the foundation for all that we are. The
Statement of Faith is based on the Bible. The Bible is our final authority in all
matters of faith and practice. However, since the Bible is a diverse collection
of narrative stories, poetry, law, and letters, it is helpful to summarize its
teaching in a concise form that can be comprehended by both those deeply
rooted in the church and those who have little exposure to the Bible. This is
the historical function that the ancient universal church creeds played in the
first four hundred years of Christ-centered faith.
It is also important for each community of faith to express these ancient
truths in its own language, and not merely adopt the language of another age
and culture. Every community of faith has two major obligations in regards to
its faith, namely absolute faithfulness to the Word of God, and sensitivity to
the world in which that community lives. This means that the Vineyard move-
ment must express the historical, biblical, orthodox Christian beliefs that we
hold in common with all Christians, and the particular doctrines that are our
distinctive voice, in terms that are relevant to 21st century Christians.
Our Statement of Faith is based on the conviction that the kingdom of God
is the central theological motif that gives definition to all that we believe. It
is a kingdom of God centered theology. This statement is our best current
understanding of the Bible from that kingdom perspective. Our prayer is that
God will bless our sincere attempt to be humble ambassadors of His rule and
reign, and to be a people that practice the presence of God and proclaim His
Gospel, so that His will may be done on Earth as it is in heaven.
For the greater glory of God and the well-being of people!

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

1. The Power of PrayerAn Interview with
United Faith Church
How do I pray?
Does prayer really work?
2. What does United Faith
Church believe regarding
prayer?
United Faith Church believes that prayer is
intimate communication with God. Prayer is not
about repetition or reciting, but about an honest
conversation with God that comes from the heart.
This interaction may involve making requests,
giving thanks, acknowledging sin and repenting,
or praying on behalf of others. United Faith
Church trusts that God answers our prayers
according to His will. Prayer is the foundation of a
relationship with Christ and is an integral part of
the life of every Christian.
3. Does United Faith Church
have a biblical model for
prayer?
Members of United Faith Church believe that
anyone can pray and speak with God. Jesus has
left us a model in the Bible explaining how to
pray, known as “The Lord’s Prayer.” UFC follows
this model by approaching the Father with
reverence and thanksgiving because we know
that only through the perfect sacrifice of Jesus
can a believer be qualified to have access to
Him. Uniting with the heart of Jesus creates the
desire to see His kingdom reign on the earth, and
for His will to be made complete.
4. This model also teaches us that God wants his
name hallowed, or ‘glorified,’ in prayer as we
enter His presence to bring our petitions to Him.
At United Faith Church in Barnegat, believers are
aware that God the Father graciously provides
everything we need when we put Him first.
Prayer is for the understanding of His word,
forgiveness of sin, deliverance from temptation,
and the ability to experience the glory of being in
His kingdom now and forever. When the
guidelines of the Lord’s Prayer are embraced and
applied in every aspect of the believer’s life, God
can move mightily.
5. Can anything hinder
someone’s prayers to God?
At United Faith Church the importance of seeking
the Lord to get to know Him, is emphasized in
order to live a life that pleases Him. Jesus often
warned his disciples to guard their hearts to
avoid the pride he identified in many of the
religious leaders of His time who prayed loudly in
public to appear “spiritual.” Inside many of their
hearts were unforgiveness, hatred, resentment,
and other sins that would prevent God from
answering their prayers. True disciples of the
Lord Jesus Christ acknowledge the need to
sincerely reflect on God’s truth in their daily lives,
so that prayers may be answered.
6. The way Christians treat others, especially those
who belong to the family of God, is a reflection of
their love for God. In the Bible, Jesus reminds
His disciples that the Father hears and forgives
those who forgive others.
United Faith Church recognizes that God
examines the condition of the heart; He opposes
the proud, but gives His ear the humble. God
also sees the motives of the heart. Prayers
prayed with a humble and thankful heart that are
aligned with the Word of God are powerful and
effective.
7. How can prayer affect a
believer personally?
Prayer involves drawing near to God to
experience His presence. The believers of United
Faith Church have experienced, firsthand, the
transforming power of the Lord’s presence in
individual and corporate prayer times. Attendants
of UFC find peace in the midst of distressing
circumstances by following the biblical
prescription for anxiety, casting their cares upon
the Lord. The peace comes flowing in like a river,
filling the soul and guarding the heart against
fear. United Faith Church trusts that through
prayer, the Christian will experience
inexpressible joy and peace from the Heavenly
Father.
8. Those of United Faith Church also believe that
God is able to address any situation and answer
any question pertaining to all aspects of
life. Prayer provides insight and wisdom aligned
with God’s Word that is high above any
knowledge that can be found on this earth. There
is no circumstance that is too big or small for
God, and the Christian has access to His divine
guidance and will through prayer.
9. Does prayer really work?
The Bible describes prayer as a vital part of
church life because it is the means by which
spiritual works are accomplished in the natural
world. United Faith Church can personally testify
of God’s deliverance of His people from the
bondage of sin, as well as the salvation and
transforming power that His Spirit gives through
the power of prayer. Through prayer, UFC not
only experiences the manifestation of God’s
presence during a church service, but also in the
restoration of families, marriages, and
relationships with God in their daily lives.
10. Believers of United Faith Church follow the biblical
mandate to pray with the authority given in the Name
of Jesus Christ. The Name of Jesus holds the power
to heal, provide, save, and deliver. Through prayer,
God’s Kingdom in heaven is established here on
earth. United Faith Church has seen angels
dispatched to protect believers in dangerous
situations, healings of cancers and various diseases,
and souls that were dead come to life in Christ, all
through the mighty power of prayer. United Faith
Church is thankful for God’s gift of prayer and for His
leading the church in what, when and how to pray so
that we would be effective in His Kingdom. Prayer is
integral in the growth and sustainment of the church
and at United Faith Church, there is no denying that
prayer truly does work!
