For we preach not ourselves, ButChrist Jesus the Lord: And ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. 2 Cor 4:5
WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe that the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is the bestowing of the believer with power and is accompanied by the manifestation of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
Gifts
We believe in the present-day operation of the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit, as recorded in 1 Corinthians 12. We also believe in the ministry gifts of Christ, as recorded in Ephesians 4:11-13.
Divine Healing
In accordance with the teachings of the Scriptures, we trust our heavenly Father to protect and heal our bodies from sickness and disease. We believe that divine healing for the body, as with all redemptive blessings of God, has been provided for us by the atoning death and victorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ; it is the privilege of all believers and it is appropriated by faith in our heavenly Father's unfailing promises
We believe in the triune God of the Bible, the God who created the world, who made man in His own image, who so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son for man’s redemption who sent us His Spirit to comfort, teach, and intercede for us.
Jesus Christ
We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, that He is coeternal and coequal with God the Father. We believe the biblical account of His virgin birth, sinless life, words, works, vicarious death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and promise of His personal return.
The Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit, as revealed in the Bible, is a person coequal and coeternal with God the Father and God the Son. The Holy Spirit strengthens faith, brings comfort and peace in time of sorrow and distress, enlightens our hearts and minds to understand and apply the truth in Christ and the Bible, and empowers us with all the gifts mentioned in the “Book of Acts” to serve God more effectively.
Repentance
We believe that men become children of God by true repentance, turning from sin, and turning to Christ as Savior. True repentance results in a changed life.
Faith
We believe that men who have received God’s forgiveness for sin through Christ’s atoning death and triumphant resurrection possess saving faith. The faith is awakened and strengthened by the hearing of the Word of God.
The Christian Life
We believe the Christian life is lived by trust in Christ and fellowship with Him, for He is “the way, the truth, and the life.” It is summed up in the two great commandments: to love God with all our hearts, souls, strength, and minds; and to love our neighbors as ourselves.
Jesus' Mandate!
We believe that all born again Christians are under the mandate of Jesus to go forth into all the world and preach the Gospel!
