About Us
Coal Creek Church of Longview, Washington, is an independent, fundamental, and dispensational Bible church. Coal Creek Church has a legacy of support for missions, verse-by-verse expository Bible teaching with an emphasis on God's grace. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
We believe the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and the final authority for all matters of faith and practice. Our services are centered on expository preaching — teaching through books of the Bible verse by verse — so that our congregation is grounded in the whole counsel of God.
We are led by Pastor Logan Green and are committed to the grace of God as the foundation of salvation and the Christian life.

Our Full Statement of Faith
We subscribe to the following Biblical statements of faith and doctrine:
The Holy Scriptures
We believe that the sixty-six books of the Bible are the inspired record of God's revelation of Himself and of His will to mankind and that they are without error.
II Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:20-21; John 16:12-13
The Godhead
We believe that there is one God who has existed eternally in three personalities – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – each having the same perfect qualities.
Deuteronomy 6:4; II Corinthians 13:14
Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal and unique Son of God. He became a man through the virgin birth, but did not cease to be God. He came to earth to reveal God to man and to accomplish our redemption through His death on the Cross as our substitute and that He arose physically from the grave. He then ascended to heaven where He is our representative before the Father.
Romans 3:24-25; I Peter 2:24; Ephesians 1:7; I Peter 1:3-5
The Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Godhead who convicts the world of sin and regenerates, baptizes, indwells, seals, and empowers the saved.
John 18:8-11; II Corinthians 3:6; I Corinthians 12:13; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 1:13
The Total Depravity of Man
We believe that man is totally depraved, and cannot save himself from his lost condition or in any way contribute to his salvation.
Romans 3:22-23; 5:2
Salvation
We believe that salvation is the gift of God and cannot be earned or merited in any way. The human condition in justification is faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ, such faith being a gift from God.
Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-10; John 1:12
Security of Believers
We believe that salvation is an act of God and that a man who is saved cannot be lost.
John 10:27-30
The Two Natures of the Believer
We believe that every Christian possesses a new nature from God as well as the old depraved nature. The eradication of the old nature is unscriptural.
I John 1:18; Ephesians 4:22-24
Separation from the World
We believe that every Christian should be so separated unto the Lord that a life of separation from all worldly and sinful practices would be evidenced.
Romans 12:1-2; II Timothy 3:1-5
Spiritual Gifts
We believe that the gifts of evangelists, pastors and teachers are sufficient for the perfecting of the saints today. Sign-gifts, including tongues, gradually ceased as the New Testament Scriptures were completed and their authority became established. In accord with His will, we believe that God does hear and answer the prayer of faith for the sick and afflicted.
Ephesians 4:7-12; John 15:7; James 5:15
Missions
We believe it is the obligation of the saved to witness by life and by word to the truth of the Bible and to proclaim the Gospel to all the world.
Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8
The Second Coming of Christ
We believe in the personal, imminent, pre-millennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ for His redeemed ones, and His subsequent return to earth with His saints to establish His Millennial Kingdom.
I Thessalonians 4:13-18; Luke 16:19-26; Revelation 20:11-15
Satan
We believe Satan is a fallen angel and a real person. He has been active in the world since the fall of man and will be eternally punished in the lake of fire.
Job 1:6-7; Isaiah 14:12-17; Revelation 2:10
