BELIEFS
THE NATURE OF GOD
We believe that God is One, eternally expressed in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is the creator of everything that exists but was Himself not created by anyone. He is the source of all that is good, the master of all creation, and the perfect, holy, and righteous judge of all the free creatures He has made. Besides Him there is no other god in heaven or earth.
DEITY OF JESUS
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the Savior of the world. Christ is the visible image of the invisible God, and the exact imprint of his nature, in human form. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation. Jesus is Himself God and shares equally all the qualities of the Father and the Holy Spirit. Although He existed as God from all eternity, He willfully chose to assume a human nature and was born in time and space of the virgin Mary. He did this so that by full identification with the human race He could save us from our sins, and restore our fellowship with God.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe in the deity and personhood of the Holy Spirit. He proceeds from the Father and the Son and works actively as God’s agent on the earth today. His mission is to convict the world of sin, create and secure believers in Christ, and empower God’s Church to grow in grace and manifest God’s Kingdom in the earth. We believe all the gifts and miraculous works of the Holy Spirit are available to God’s people for ministry to others in the local church and in the world.
THE SCRIPTURES
We believe that the Holy Bible (39 books of the O.T. and 27 books of the N.T.) is the only inspired, unfailing and complete written Word of God. It is the revelation of God’s plan for man. People are born again through hearing and believing the message of the Bible. God’s Word is the primary tool God has provided for the perfecting and maturing of His children.
Note: As a general matter of practice we choose to use translations that most closely follow the original language of the Bible such as the King James Version or New King James Version.
THE NATURE & FALL OF MAN
We believe that all people were made in the image of God, but through sin have been separated from God and fallen into moral darkness and the dominion of God’s adversary, the devil. Our sin has rendered humanity a race of spiritual rebels deserving nothing but God’s everlasting wrath. Fallen people, left to themselves and without God’s help, would not seek for God, die in sin, and perish
REDEMPTION OF MAN
We believe that God, who is rich in mercy, has chosen from eternity to restore fallen humanity to Himself by providing salvation for all through faith in the sacrifice of His own Son. God gave Jesus to die for our sins and shed His blood as full payment for the sins of the human race. God calls people to Himself through the preaching of the Gospel, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the gift of His Grace. No one can take credit in any way for his own salvation. It is truly, from first to last, the gift of God. We believe that a person is saved by faith in Jesus Christ alone, and not by his own works or efforts.
THE NEW BIRTH
We believe that every person must be born again, spiritually, in order to be saved and enter the Kingdom of God. This means all genuine Christians are born again, and no other “kind” of Christian exists. We believe that the new birth powerfully and permanently changes the human heart, giving believers an eternal right-standing before God, by grace. All who are born again receive the gift of eternal life, and they shall never perish. All those who are in Christ are new creations, their old spiritual nature passes away, and all things become new.
THE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe God has promised all believers a special gift called the “gift” or “baptism” of the Holy Spirit. This experience is a special work of God, following (on occasion coinciding with) salvation and is received by faith. The initial physical sign that one has received this gift is the release of heavenly language for prayer and worship, known as speaking in other tongues. God gives this gift to enable His children to communicate spirit to spirit with God in prayer and worship and for personal ministry to others.
SANCTIFICATION & HOLINESS
We believe that all God’s children are called to be transformed by the renewing of their minds, and disciplining their bodies to put away sin and walk in God’s righteousness. This is a process called sanctification. By regularly feeding on the Word of God, fellowship with God in prayer, receiving the ministry of the local church, and by making daily choices to discipline the behavior and desires of the flesh. At the coming of Christ, the Lord Himself will bring to completion that good work He began in us.
DIVINE HEALING
We believe that the redemptive work of Christ provides supernatural healing for our physical bodies. “Himself took our infirmities and bare our sickness.” Healing and wholeness is a promise available to His children who live in obedience to His Word and believe His covenant promises. The Bible tells us that Divine Healing is the right of every believer and calls it the 'children’s bread'.
ABUNDANT LIFE
We believe the promise of the abundant life is to be sought by all believers through living disciplined, focused and spiritually passionate lives. This promise includes the provision of grace to prosper spiritually, physically, mentally, socially, and materially. The abundant life can be realized by every believer who believe the promises of God, give faithfully as directed by God, follow the leading of the Holy Spirit, and commit to achieve personal excellence in every area of life. We further believe that Christians are morally obligated to achieve their highest potential in body, mind and spirit, for the purpose of gaining spiritual and natural influence in the world and imparting the life character of Jesus Christ. The primary purpose of material prosperity is to enable the believer to enjoy life on earth, provide for their families, and generously give to the work of taking the Gospel to the world.
RESURRECTION & ETERNAL JUDGMENT
We believe in the imminent, physical return of Jesus Christ to the earth. Jesus is coming first to catch away and reward His Church, bring judgment upon the wicked, deliver Israel from destruction, and establish His Throne.
Jesus will return physically to the Mount of Olives, and establishing an earthly rule in the city of Jerusalem, fulfilling His promises to the Jewish people. At His coming, the dead shall be physically raised, the believer will be resurrected unto everlasting life, and the unbeliever will be resurrected unto everlasting death in the lake of fire.
Then God shall create a new heaven and a new earth where there shall be no more tears, no more pain, and nothing that will hurt or destroy. Then the dwelling place of God shall be with men, and we who have received God’s free gift of salvation shall enjoy eternity in the presence of our triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
In light of these sacred truths, we invite men everywhere to repent of their sins, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and be saved into the Abundant Life that God has promised to all who cling in faith to Him.
