Our Beliefs

Our Beliefs as a Ministry

The Holy Scriptures
We believe the Holy Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative source of the Christian faith and practice. The Bible is a supreme revelation from God, superior to conscience and reason, though not contrary to reason. II Timothy 3:16, 17

The Nature of God
We believe in one God, manifested in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Genesis 1:26; Matthew 3:16, 17; John 1:1-4

The Sinfulness of Man
We believe that man was created in the image of God,
but as a result of sin is lost and powerless to save himself.
Genesis 1:26; Romans 6:23

Redemption through Christ
We believe that the only hope for man is to believe in Jesus Christ
He is the virgin-born Son of God, fully God, fully man.
Through faith in Christ’s life, death and resurrection, mankind is redeemed.
Romans 10:9, 10, 13; John 3:16; Ephesians 2:1-10

Salvation
We believe that salvation is by grace through faith alone. No amount of good works will produce justification before God. We further believe that the manifestation of grace and faith is a holy life expressed through righteous works.
Ephesians 2:8-10

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in all believers.
Through the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, believers are empowered and gifted for Christian service. An evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit gives the utterance. The Holy Spirit also enables believers to live a Christ-like life exhibiting Godly character.
Luke 11:13; Acts 1:8, 2:1-4, 8:17, 10:44-46, 19:6; Galatians 5:22-23; I Corinthians 12

Eternal Life
We believe that eternal life in heaven is the reward for all believers who accept Christ as their Lord. According to the Scriptures, “For God so loved the world that He sent His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). “But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars-their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
Revelation 21:8

The Body of Christ
We believe that the Church is the Body of Christ, both universal and local.
It is composed of individuals who, through faith in Jesus Christ, have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit. We believe that Christ Jesus is the Head and Lord of the Church. The mission of the Church is worship, evangelism, discipleship and the nurturing and care of one another.
Matthew 28:18-20; Colossians 1:18; Ephesians 2:19-22

The Return of Christ
We believe in the personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ, the consummation of the Kingdom of God and the restoration of everything, as He promised long ago through His holy prophets. Matthew 24:42-44; Acts 1:11, 3:19-21; Revelation 11:15
