Statement of Belief

Statement of Belief and Purpose

Agape Europe is committed to introducing people to Jesus Christ, encouraging them to follow Him and equipping them to be sent out as ambassadors of the Good News.

 

We long to see Europe, with its cities and centres of influence, changed by the Gospel.

 

We trust in God who is revealed as Father, Son and Holy Spirit – acting in response to His command to love God and one another deeply, expressing this love in words and actions to a hurting world.

 

We believe that Jesus came into the world so that through His life, death and resurrection, our relationship with God can be restored and our sin, with its guilt and shame, forgiven. This relationship is experienced by grace through faith.

 

We are followers of Jesus who is fully God and fully human, and aspire to obey His teaching and be filled with His Holy Spirit, living life in all its fullness – now and forever.

 

We have a great love for the Bible and view it as authoritative for our life and ministry.

 

We value all human beings, made in the image of God, and act with grace and compassion to everyone.

 

We want to take seriously our stewardship of God’s creation.

 

As part of the Body of Christ, we work with local churches and other organisations as we fulfil our common mission.
