Founded by John Wesley, the Methodist theology is based on scripture, tradition, experience, and reason.
Methodists believe that
"all Scripture is given by the inspiration of God." We believe that the written
Word of God is the only and sufficient rule both of Christian faith and practice
in our lives.
Methodists are people who have the love of God in their hearts. This is the
gift of God's Holy Spirit; and the same Spirit causes Methodists to love God
with all their heart, with all their soul, with all their mind, and with all
their strength.
Methodists do good to all, neighbors, strangers, friends, and enemies. This
includes every kind of good. Methodists provide food for the hungry and clothing
for the naked. They visit people who are sick and in prison. Even more important,
Methodists labor for the enrichment of our souls.
As members of Troy First, we have promised to be loyal to the United Methodist
Church, to uphold it with our prayers, our presence, our gifts, and our service.
Our support is important and makes the ministry of Wesley possible. We give
because we want to share God's blessings. Our support is prompted by commitment
to our ministries. We realize that our church can only be as vital and strong
as our commitment as members allow us to be.
