We Believe In
ONE TRUE GOD
God has revealed Himself as the creator of all things and the redeemer of mankind. He is manifested as the Triune God Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1, Isaiah 43:11 and Mathew 28:19)
SCRIPTURES INSPIRED
The old and new Testaments are the inspired word of God. In them we find the final authority for all Christian faith and practice.
(2nd Timothy 3:15-17)
DEITY OF JESUS CHRIST
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God who shares in the Deity of God. He is also truly man who was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the Cross as sacrifice for sin and arose from the dead, ascended into heaven and at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest and Advocate. (Ephesians 1:23)
ORIGINAL SIN AND FALL OF MAN
Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost (Geneses 1-3). Only thoroughly the shed blood of Jesus Christ and by His resurrection can man have ground for justification and salvation. This salvation and spiritual life are obtained by regeneration through the work of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 3:23-26)
SALVATION BY FAITH
Man’s salvation and remission (a free gift from God) can only be obtained by exercising faith, not by works and by the finished redemptive work of the Lord Jesus. (Ephesians 2:3-10)
THE NEW MAN IN CHRIST
If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature (creation) in the inward man. We are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus. We are partakers of His divine nature. (2nd Corinthians 5:17, Ephesians 2:10 and 2nd Peter 1:4)
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The ministry and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit are to glorify Jesus Christ and to indwell, guide and empower believers for life and service. The Baptism brings the gifts of ennoblement of the Holy Spirit and their uses to the forefront of the ministry of the body of the Christ. This experience is distinct from and subsequent to the experience of the new birth. (Acts 2:1-4)
DIVINE HEALING
The anointing work of Jesus Christ provides not only salvation but healing and prosperity for all believers. (Mathew 8:16-17)
CHURCH-THE BODY OF CHRIST
The true Church is the composition of all those who have been born-again. Through the new birth believers are united together as the body of Christ, Jesus Christ is the Lord and head of the Church. (Ephesians 1:22-23)
WATER BAPTISM
All who believe in Jesus Christ as their savior and have been born-again are commanded to be immersed in water as a declaration that they identify with the death of Christ and have been raised with Him in newness of life. (Mark 16:16)
LORD’S SUPPER
A symbolic expression of our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ as well as a memorial of His suffering, death and prophecy of His second coming. (1st Corinthians 11:23-31)
THE BLESSED HOPE
The blessed hope of the Church is the resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their transfiguration (catching away to heaven) together with those who are alive and remain into the coming of the Lord. (1st Thessalonians 4:16-17, Romans 11:27)
THE FINAL JUDGMENT
There will be a final judgment in which the wicked dead will be raised and judge according to their works. Whoever name is not found written in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire which is the second death. (Mathew 25:46, Mark 9:43-48, Revelation 19:20, 20:11-15, 21:8)
