Our Beliefs
Our Beliefs
Holy Scripture:
We believe that the entire Scripture, both Old and New Testament are written by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit – II Tim. 3:16-17.
God the Father:
As revealed unto us by the Bible, we believe that there is only one God, Who is the Creator of both visible and invisible creatures -Gen. 1:1; Ps. 86:9-10; Is. 43:10-11; John 1:1-3.
Our Lord Jesus Christ:
We believe that Jesus is the Son of God who took away our sins, and he is the Savior of the world. He is God revealed in the flesh. John 1:1-14; John 14:9; Matt. 1:18-25, Is 9:6; Is 53:5-6. We believe in His death on the Cross and resurrection, by which He brought redemption. We believe his blood was shed for us at Calvary to cleanse us of sin and grant us access to the presence of God – Is. 53:4-10; I Pet. 2:24; John 10:11; Gal. 3:13, Matt. 20:28; I Cor. 15:3; Rom. 4:25; II Cor. 5:14; Heb 2:9; Heb 9:26.
The Holy Spirit:
The Holy Spirit is the third Person in the TRINITY. He has the same power, the same glory with God the Father and God the Son – John 14:16-17; John 15:26; Matt. 3:16; Acts 13:24.
The Trinity:
We believe that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost are one God, but made of three persons – hence they are ONE IN TRINITY – Gen. 1:16-29; Matt. 3:16-17; Matt. 18:19.
New Birth (Born Again):
We believe that this is a gift from God through grace and faith in Christ Jesus. We believe that all who believe in the name of Jesus Christ are saved by turning from sin to repentance and are born again by the Holy Spirit through trusting in His death and resurrection. Acts 13:39; Rom. 3:25-26; Rom 5:1; I Cor. 6:11; Gal. 3:24; John 1:12-13; 3:3; II Cor. 5:9; Titus 3:5; I Peter 1:23; Acts 10:43; John 3:3,5.
Sanctification:
This is God’s grace. We are cleansed from our sins and we are able to stand before God as though we have never sinned. We are then separated from the world unto God in true holiness – John 17:15-17; I Thess. 4:3; Heb. 2:11; 12:14; 13:12; I John 1:7; Luke 1:74, 75; II Cor. 7:1; I Peter 1:16; Eph. 5:25-27; I Thess. 5:23-24; II Thess. 2:13.
Water Baptism:
We believe in water baptism by immersion. Acts 2:38; Acts 22:6; Rom. 6:1 – 23
Eternal Life:
We believe in eternal life where the soul of Man will live forever and ever – Matt. 25:46. Rev.14:10-11; Luke.16:24; Mark 9:43-44.
Our Mandate:
We believe the life and lifestyle of the child of God should be governed by Christian teachings based on the word of God in the Holy Bible – II Tim. 3:10-15; II Peter 1:21; John 17:17; Ps. 119:105.
