Our Name
Logos is a Greek term, which signifies in classical Greek, both “reason” and “word.” Though in Biblical Greek the term is mostly employed in the sense of “word,” we cannot properly dissociate the two meanings. Both meanings are closely connected because every word implies a thought. The God of the Bible is a talking God and a thinking God, and He took on human form in the person of Jesus Christ.
​
In John 1:1–17 we read “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth...”
​
Jesus Christ, the God-man, is fully God and fully man, and is the incarnation of this pre-existent divine Logos (Word). Logos is the intermediary agent through whom God creates the world, reveals himself to humanity, and redeems His people.
​
Our name, Logos Church, means that our church believes that the Word of God (Bible) is the only inspired, absolute, inerrant, and infallible authority
​
Our name, Logos Church, means that our church believes that the Word of God (Bible) constitutes the only infallible rule of faith and practice for our lives.
​
Our name, Logos Church, means that our church believes that the Word of God (Bible) drives our ministry, our mission, our identity and our praxis.
Our Verse
Isaiah 40:8
“The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.”
​
The context of this verse shows that humans are compared to grass and flowers, they wither and fall to the ground, and are therefore unreliable.
In contrast with the frailty of humanity, God’s Word can be absolutely trusted for it will never prove false. God’s Word is absolutely reliable and eternally imperishable.
Our Mission
The mission of our church is the result of our best effort in understanding and fulfilling the Great Commission given to every church and every believer in
Matthew 28:18-20 “18 All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
We find that the best way to see disciples making disciples is to have disciples share the Word by living out the Word because they regularly hear the Word.
Our mission can therefore be simplified in three simple but profound steps:
Our Doctrines
Our statement of faith is divided in primary and secondary doctrines. This is not a division based on the order of importance but rather in terms of the impact of such doctrines on a person’s salvation. Primary doctrines are primary beliefs required for salvation and should be shared by all believers of Jesus Christ. Secondary doctrines are secondary beliefs, equally important to the primary ones, but not shared by all believers in Christ, and are not required for a person’s salvation. They are however extremely important to our church in order to clearly defining where we stand on such doctrines. We teach and live out such doctrines, not to be divisive within the larger body of the Church, but rather, to identify our place within it. Knowledge brings responsibility (Rom. 1:20-23) and all of us will be responsible, one day, for our teaching and understanding of the whole counsel of God’s Holy Word, as it relates to both, primary and secondary issues.
Sermons
At Logos Church, our sermons are expositional, verse by verse, and Bible based. We believe that expositional preaching submits our souls to the authority of God and His Word in order to produce faith and transform lives.
-
John Calvin: “Preaching is the public exposition of Scripture by the man sent from God, in which God himself is present in judgment and in grace.”
-
J.I. Packer: “A sermon is the proclamation of the Word of God only if the text of the Word is accurately expounded and preached. So, in the strictest sense of the term, authentic preaching is expository preaching.”
-
David Helm: “Expositional preaching is empowered preaching that rightfully submits the shape and emphasis of the sermon to the shape and emphasis of a biblical text.”
