Bethel Copiague is the oldest African-American Congregation on Long Island. Bethel is a Kingdom-Focused, Kingdom-Driven church being guided by the Holy Spirit. We believe that we have been called to be Christ’s ambassadors that grows in the Word of God and helps our community in many ways.
The Ambassador Church
"Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction." Proverbs 29:18 (New International Version)
WE BELIEVE every person in this world is called to make a difference.
WE BELIEVE God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, into the
world as a living and loving sacrifice to restore all persons to a right
relationship with Him.
WE BELIEVE the human mind finds the vastness of God’s love
incomprehensible, yet even the soul of a little child can understand
and experience His love and His presence.
WE BELIEVE God created every person in His image, full of
possibilities and endowed with unique gifts and a place in Creation –
a place no other person was created to fill.
WE BELIEVE the only way to complete fulfillment – now and
throughout Eternity – is through the acceptance of Jesus Christ as
Lord and Savior.
WE BELIEVE the highest honor of a person’s life is to be called a
Christian, that the Christian’s supreme obligation is to be available
to God and that the greatest gift one person can bestow upon
another is the Gospel message of salvation.
My fundamental belief system
embraces three basic principles:
• WE BELIEVE God sent his Son Jesus Christ into the world because of
His love for people and His desire to save us from sin.
• WE BELIEVE God alone fulfills because of His love.
• WE BELIEVE you and I must share the Good News of the Gospel
because of God’s redeeming love.
