About United In Christ (UIC) and United In Christ Radio
(UIC Radio)
Individual
groups as well as united groups have been praying and
discussing ways to further unite Christians in Grimsby
& Cleethorpes for some time now and in January 2007
with God's help United In Christ (UIC) was born. UIC is
the umbrella organisation for United In Christ Web (UICW),
United In Christ Radio (UIC Radio) and United In Christ
Television (UIC TV). We believe the electronic media can
play a major part in helping the LOCAL churches and Christians
in their work. The electronic media is a very powerful
tool for reaching the masses and should not simply be
handed over to be used for evil. For the glory of God
let us use the technology to interact with each other
and to broadcast the Lord’s message as one united
body, though based in different locations.
UIC
is not a denomination or a church neither is it owned
or operated by any one denomination or church. Think of
UIC like a precinct or a mall, different unique stores
but one mall, united on key issues and sharing some resources.
When persons enter the web site they have access to a
range of information, resourses and tools from a range
of different Christian people, churches and organisations.
At present our team of workers represent different unconnected
churches of different denominations. Find out how you
or your church can get involved
or join our team.
Joining
UIC does not mean you need to fit into any mould or take
on any label. You need however to be Christian (see Statement
of Faith) and have a view to work with others for
the purposes of the kingdom. No group will be compelled
to work with any other specific group, it will all be
up to you. True unity can only come from willing hearts.

Vision
To facilitate and encourage unity through the use of every
spiritual, organisational and technological means made
available to us
by God. That these specified areas may be transformed
by a people united in God through love, faith and purpose.
Mission
Statement
To unite Christians and Christian activities in the Grimsby
and Cleethorpes area through an Internet radio station,
website and resource centre
UIC
will:
• appeal to all groups to love and unite as Christ said
we should;
• use spiritual means (such as organised praying) to help
encourage and bring unity;
• use organisational means (such as networking, indexing,
information and resource sharing) to help encourage and bring
unity;
• use technical means (such as radio, TV and the web) to
help encourage and bring unity;
UIC
and UIC Radio hopes the above means will also help:
• expose hidden gifts and talents as churches and groups
interact and share;
• persons identify things and areas of interest so they
can become a joint of supply to the wider body;
• give our youth a new sense of purpose and hope for
the future as they too discover activities they can be involved
in co-operatively;
• spread needed resources to groups and activities that
are in need;
Statement
of Faith
We set out to unite those who believe:
•
in the Bible as God's infallible Word, uniquely inspired
and supremely authoritative in all matters of faith and
conduct. It is a complete and sufficient revelation of all
matters concerning God's nature, His will for mankind and
eternal salvation through Jesus Christ. 2 Tim 3:16, John
20:31, Rev 22:19, 2 Peter 1:21.
•
in one God, eternally existing in three persons—Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit. Gen 1:1, 2 Cor 13:14, Titus 2:13, 2 Cor
3:17,18
•
Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the
Virgin Mary. He led a sinless life, took on Himself all
our sins, died and rose again, and is seated at the right
hand of the Father as our mediator and advocate. This resurrection
demonstrates His complete authority over sin, death and
the Devil and that He is Lord over all things. He will return
to earth at the end of this present age. 2 Cor 5:2l, Acts
2:23-24, 1 Cor 15:3,4, Heb 4:15 Eph 1:20,21, Matt 1.18-23,
Acts 1:9-11.
•
that mankind forfeited his original relationship with God
when Adam the first created man disobeyed God by following
the bidding of the Devil. Every person born into the world
inherits this fallen status and sinful nature. All men everywhere
are lost and face the judgment of God, and need to come
to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ by accepting by faith
the gift of salvation paid for by Jesus' sacrificial death
on the cross.
•
that Christ will return to earth at the end of time and be seen
by all living people. He will resurrect every person who ever
lived to face the last judgement where all mankind will give an
account of their thoughts, words and deeds.
