Northwest Community ChurchWe believe the Holy Spirit convicts individuals of their sin and their need for a Savior, helping them recognize that they cannot overcome their sin problem or earn salvation through their own efforts. In response to the conviction of the Holy Spirit, each person has the responsibility and free will to choose whether to believe in and personally trust Jesus Christ as Savior. Salvation is received by grace through faith, not by works, and requires a personal response of faith in Jesus Christ. We believe God knows beforehand who will and will not believe in Jesus Christ, but His foreknowledge does not force or determine an individual's decision to believe or reject Him.
