What Do We Believe ?
God loves all people. He created us, sustains us, and calls us to a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ.
***
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. — John 3:16
The Cumberland Presbyterian Church believes in the unity of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), the necessity of faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, and that all have sinned but can be saved through grace.
The Cumberland Presbyterian Church also emphasizes the authority of the Bible as the infallible guide for faith and practice, and do not adhere to the doctrine of predestination, believing instead that no one is beyond the possibility of salvation.

The Cumberland Presbyterian Church is a family of faith rooted in the Reformed tradition, emphasizing the grace of God for all people. We believe in the sovereignty of God, the authority of Scripture, and the call to follow Jesus Christ in a life of service and fellowship. Our core beliefs guide us as we seek to be a community of hope, healing, and transformation in our local community and the world.
From an organizational perspective, Milburn Chapel and the Cumberland Presbyterian Church as a whole, are guided by the
in order to intertwine our faith in the Lord and his teachings with our role in the community of faith, locally and around the world.
In our church "neighborhood", the Covenant Presbytery ,
we have caring people filled with love of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
If you are not able to worship with us directly or on-line here at Milburn Chapel Cumberland Presbyterian Church, we hope you will consider visiting and worshiping with one of the Covenant Presbytery churches closest to your home.
