What We Believe

Community Bible Fellowship Church is a theologically conservative evangelical church and is a part of the Bible Fellowship Church (BFC) denomination. As a part of the BFC, we here at Community Bible Fellowship Church affirm the Articles of Faith that define the core beliefs of each church in the BFC. These articles of Faith can be found at Articles of Faith - The Bible Fellowship Church (bfc.org)

Along with that we also affirm the 5 core values of the Bible Fellowship Church denomination. 


1. We Value the Bible

The Bible is our final authority for life and living. It undergirds all that we believe and do. Our doctrine and principles of living, stated in the Faith and Order of the Bible Fellowship Church, express our understanding of the Bible. We are committed to making sure that our churches conform to the clear teaching of the Bible as expressed in the Articles of Faith of the Bible Fellowship Church.


2. We Value Worship of God/Fellowship with God

Our purpose is to worship God. Through Christ’s atoning work, we have fellowship with God, allowing us the privilege of bringing glory and praise to God. In prayer, we indicate our dependent relationship and communion with God. Our fellowship with God transforms us so that in daily life we conduct ourselves with Christ-like integrity and love. 


3. We Value Fellowship with God’s people

Fellowship with God’s people connects us as the body of Christ. Fellowship is evidenced by developing intentional loving relationships within each church and among the churches. 


4. We Value the Church

The Church is the earthly manifestation of the body of Christ. Within a church preaching/teaching are used to make disciples of Jesus Christ. The church functions as an extended family, intentionally strengthening each individual and family unit, while developing servant leaders. Each member is to be involved in ministry, exercising spiritual gifts with excellence. 


5. We Value the Church’s Mission

The Mission of the church is the Great Commission, a commitment to reaching the lost of the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and making disciples of all nations by baptizing and teaching them to obey the commandments of God. We are committed to this pursuit in all that we do as a local church.

Who We Are

Mission . . .

We believe that it is our mission to obey Jesus’ two great instructions: Love God because He first loved us. And then, in response to that love, go and love others in order that they might obey Jesus too.

Vision . . .

We are committed to reaching people in the Upper Perkiomen Valley with the Gospel of Jesus Christ by dedicating ourselves to prayer and the proclamation of the Gospel. We desire to be a people who live in such a way as to reflect God's truth and love to the world. Being a people who value God centered worship, right handling of God's Word in teaching and preaching, as well as be committed to being the hands and feet of Jesus to those around us.

Leadership . . .

The church is overseen and pastored by a plurality of elders. One of those elders serves alongside the elders as the “pastor” of the church. We also have those who have taken on the official responsibility and role of assisting the elders through serving and ministering to the needs of the congregation as deacons. Along with these two offices, we have many lay people in the church that serve in very important ways to help us fulfill our mission and vision.
