CMB Principals of Belief
CMB believes that all matters of faith and conduct must be evaluated based on the Bible’s instruction to practice justice, love mercy, and model humility. It is our firm conviction that we uphold the dignity of each individual as we embrace the unchanging and longstanding principles of scriptural truth. Based on these principles, CMB holds to the following beliefs relevant to issues within today’s culture:
We believe that God immutably creates every human life in His image, and therefore is sacred. We believe every human life must be recognized, respected, and protected, from conception to natural death.
We believe God created humans in His image, intentionally and immutably male and female, each bringing unique and complementary qualities to sexuality and relationships. These two distinct but complementary genders together exclusively reflect the image and likeness of God on behalf of all humanity.
We believe God has ordained monogamous marriage to exist between one man and one woman, with absolute marital fidelity, as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society.
