WHAT WE BELEIVE
WE BELIEVE
THE SCRIPTURES
The Bible was written and spoken by holy men of old, who were moved by the Holy Spirit, and it is the inspired Word of God. In matters of conduct and doctrine, we hold the New Covenant as our infallible guide, as recorded in the New Testament (2 Timothy 3:16; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21).
WE BELIEVE
THE GODHEAD
Our God is one, but manifested in three
Persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, being coequal (Deuteronomy
6:4;Philippians 2:6). God the Father is greater than all; the Sender of the
Word (Logos) and the Begetter (John 14:28; John 16:28; John 1:14). The Son is
the Word flesh-covered, the One Begotten, and has existed with the Father from
the beginning (John 1:1; John 1:18; John 1:14). The Holy Spirit proceeds forth
from both the Father and the Son and is eternal (John 14:16; John 15:26).
WE BELIEVE
MAN, HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION
Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God, but through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world. The Bible says “…all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,” and “…There is none righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10; 3:23). Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to undo the works of the devil. He gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God (Romans 5:14; 1 John 3:8). Salvation is the gift of God to man, separate from works and the Law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God (Ephesians2:8-10).
WE BELIEVE
ETERNAL LIFE AND THE NEW BIRTH
Repentance is the first step towards salvation for men. The New Birth is necessary to all men, and when experienced, produces eternal life (2 Corinthians 7:10; John 3:3-5; 1 John 5:12).
WE BELIEVE
WATER BAPTISM
Baptism in water is by immersion, is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection (Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12; Acts 8:36-39). The following recommendation regarding the water baptismal formula is adopted: “On the confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by His authority, I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.”
WE BELIEVE
BAPTISM IN THE HOLY GHOST
The Baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the new birth. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance (Matthew 3:11; John 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38,39; Acts 19:1-7; Acts 2:1-4).
WE BELIEVE
SANCTIFICATION
The Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord. We believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation at Christ’s return (Hebrews 12:14; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; 2 Peter 3:18; 2 Corinthians 3:18; Philippians 3:12-14; 1 Corinthians 1:30).
WE BELIEVE
DIVINE HEALING
Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is worked by the power of God through the prayer of faith, and by the laying on of hands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privilege of every member of the Church today (James 5:14,15; Mark 16:18; Isaiah 53:4,5; Matthew 8:17; 1 Peter 2:24).
WE BELIEVE
RESURRECTION OF THE JUST AND THE RETURN OF OUR LORD
The angels said to the disciples of Jesus, “…This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven.” His coming is imminent. When He comes, “…The dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air…” (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17). Following the Tribulation, He shall return to earth as King of kings, and Lord of lords, and together with His saints, who shall be kings and priests, He shall reign a thousand years (Revelation 5:10;20:6).
WE BELIEVE
HELL AND ETERNAL RETRIBUTION
The one who physically dies in his sins without accepting Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the lake of fire and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting. The lake of fire is literal. The terms “eternal” and “everlasting,” used in describing the duration of the punishment of the damned in the lake of fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstasy of saints in the Presence of God (Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 19:20).
