~ Statement of Belief ~
We believe in the Eternal God; Father, Son and Holy
Spirit - the One True God
who created
all things. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three
persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in
the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, born of a virgin by the Holy Spirit.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is God and Man in one person. He lived a
sinless life; performed miracles, and vicariously atoned for sin through his
shed blood and death on the cross. We believe in the bodily resurrection,
the Ascension into Heaven and the imminent Return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in
the Bible, which is the inspired and infallible Word of God.
We believe in
the essential spiritual need for all mankind to personally experience being Born
Again of God and receiving Eternal life.
We believe
marriage has been established by God. This organization defines "marriage" as
the exclusive covenantal union of one man and one woman in which such union is a
lifetime commitment. A civil government's sanction of a union will be recognized
as a legitimate marriage by this organization only to the extent that it is
consistent with the definition of "marriage" found in these Articles.
We believe in
divine healing through Christ's atonement, appropriated through faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in
the celebration of Communion until Christ comes, and Believers Baptism by full
immersion.
We believe the
person and work of the Holy Spirit with His Fruit and Gifts abiding in the
Church.
We believe
regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of
lost and sinful man.
We believe the
Holy Spirit indwells all believers and enables them to live a godly life.
We believe the
Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit given to all believers.
We believe eternal life
is received by faith – that is, trusting in Jesus Christ alone for Salvation and
repentance of your sin.
We believe
there is unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe the
True Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to be made up of; all Born Again believers
who have turned from sin, and name Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and
Savior.
We believe Christ's
church, his Body, is expressed through local churches under the leadership of
Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers.
We believe in
the "Rapture", the catching away of the Church as described in I Thessalonians
4:16-17.
We believe both the saved
and the lost will be resurrected from the dead – they that are saved into the
resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
