Our Beliefs

 

 
  • We believe the Bible, the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are the inspired Word of God without error in the original writings, and complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life (2 Timothy 3:16; 2Peter 1:20-21; John 1:14; 1 John 2:5-6; Revelation 22:18-19).
  • We believe there is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three Manifestations: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (1 John 5: 5-6; Matthew 28:19; 1 Timothy 3:16).
  • We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where He sits at the right hand of God the Father. He is now our High Priest and Advocate (Luke 3:21-22; Philippians 2:5-11; Hebrew 1:3, 12:2; 1 John 2:1; Hebrews 4:14-15).
  • We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (Colossians 2:9; Matthew 27:54).
  • We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ atones for our sins and iniquity. It is through His shed blood that we are saved, healed, and set free from bondage and the forces of darkness (Romans 5:9-11; Ephesians 1:7; Revelation 12:11).
  • We believe that Jesu is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Him (John 3:36, 31-32; John 14:6; Acts 4:10-12).
  • We believe in the indwelling and baptism of the Holy Spirit with the sign of speaking in other tongues. We believe that the evidence of the Holy Spirit’s indwelling presence is a changed life (Acts 2:4; Ephesians 5:18-21; John 14:17, 26; Mark 16:16-18).
 
 
  • We believe in justification by faith. We believe that salvation is free and apart from any work of man is a result of the sovereign grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 5:5; Romans 5:1)
  • We believe in worshipping the Lord in spirit, song, dance, and with the raising of our hands. We believe that we are to praise and worship Him in spirit and truth (Psalms 150:1-6; John 4:24).
  • We believe in divine healing and that it is God’s will to heal and deliver His people. It is by the stripes of Jesus that we are healed, delivered, and made whole (Luke 10:19; 2 Corinthians 10:4-5: 1 Peter 2:24).
  • We believe in tithing, bringing offering into the local church, caring for the poor, sick, homeless, and unfortunate (Malachi 3:8-12; James 1:27; Proverbs 19:17).
  • We believe in the return of Jesus Christ and the rapture, that the dead in Christ will rise first, and those who are alive and remain shall be caught up to meet Jesus in the air; the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgement and everlasting conscious punishment (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; John 14:1-3; 2 Corinthians 4:8; Luke 16:19-28; Revelation 20:11-15).
  • We believe in water baptism by immersion after accepting Christ as personal Savior and it is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to a new life. It is through baptism that we publicly identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ (Romans 6:3-6; Colossians 2:11-14; Acts 2:38).
  • We believe that all Christians need to partake of the communion elements., which represent the Lord Jesus’ body and blood. It is by participating in the Lord’s Supper that we proclaim His death until He returns. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial service setting forth in the sacred and symbolic manner the death of the Lord Jesus Christ; all true believers and only believers should share in it (John 6:53-58; 1 Corinthians 11:23-30).
 
 
 
This ministry holds these truths and many others to be precious and dear. Our purpose, however, is not for endless doctrinal disputes, but to be a place of ministry and healing for those in need. We realize and understand that we will be ministering to those of all walks of life, religious backgrounds, and beliefs. Christians have always had diversity in their theology and will continue to do so until the great return of the Master Teacher, Jesus Christ. However, in the meantime, we want to provide healing and encouragement to the body of Christ at large. We pray that what we believe not divide us, but in whom we believe to unite us.
