At Victory Cross, we are followers of Jesus who believe in the completeness of all Scripture—the Old Testament and New Testament—as God's revelation of His love and redemptive plan for all people.

Throughout the Old Testament, we see God's character, His covenant faithfulness, and the promise and foreshadowing of the coming Messiah. The New Testament reveals God's plan of redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ, who came as the sacrificial Lamb and will come again as King.

The Old Testament gives us a rich heritage of faith through the Jewish nation of Israel. Jesus Himself embraced this Jewish heritage throughout His earthly life. He fulfilled the Levitical and priestly requirements by becoming the sacrifice once and for all and our eternal High Priest (Hebrews 7; Hebrews 10:10–14). He lived God's moral Law from the heart and taught its truth to the multitudes (Matthew 5–7). He established the New Covenant and commanded His followers to love one another as He loved us (John 13:34).

Jesus also promised the gift of the Holy Spirit (John 14:15–17) and the new heart God had promised through the prophets (Ezekiel 36:26). Under the New Covenant, God writes His Law upon the hearts of His people (Jeremiah 31:31–34; Hebrews 10:16). The “you shall” became “I will” from covenant to covenant.

However, Jesus never abandoned His heritage, and neither do we.

At Victory Cross, we embrace the rich heritage of our faith with honor and grateful respect. There is profound truth and revelation of God throughout the whole of Scripture. We believe every part is God-breathed and that, from Genesis to Revelation, God's complete Word reveals His universal truth and His redemptive purposes for His people.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is valuable for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults and training in right living; thus, anyone who belongs to God may be fully equipped for every good work.” — 2 Timothy 3:16–17
