What We Believe

THE SCRIPTURE is the infallible and authoritative word of God, without error, given for the purpose of directing man to God and salvation.

GOD THE FATHER is the creator of heaven and earth and the sustainer of all things. There is but one God, infinite, eternal and perfect in holiness, truth and love.

THE TRIUNE GOD consists of the Father, the Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. They are co-existent, co-eternal and co-equal.

GOD THE SON, JESUS was supernaturally conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of Virgin Mary, and was without sin. He was the vicarious sacrifice of the sin of all mankind through His own glorified body, appeared to many, ascended unto Heaven, and will return to earth in power and glory. He is the Head of the body, the church.

GOD, THE HOLY SPIRIT convicts the world of sin, righteousness and judgment, unites man to Jesus Christ in faith, brings about new birth, and dwells within the believer, enabling him to grow in sanctification and righteousness, and become a gift of God to the church.

THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT is available to all that believe in Jesus Christ, and who will totally surrender their lives to the complete, perfect will of God.

THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT are available through the Holy Ghost, and are for the church of today.

THE FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT and the character of God must be evident in the life of every disciple as pre-conditioned for the resting and manifestation of the seven spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Character is the stability of the anointing.

MAN was created in the image and likeness of God. Through the sin of Adam and Eve, mankind fell from God and became sinful in nature. He is totally incapable of returning to God in himself and is lost without hope, apart from the salvation of Jesus Christ.

SALVATION is the gift of God through the grace and faith of Jesus Christ. There is no other Name except that of Jesus Christ by which men may be saved. By turning from sin to repentance and trusting in Christ and His vicarious death, man is born again unto eternal life by the Holy Spirit.

THE CHURCH is the Body of Christ, whose task it is to take the gospel to all men in all nations and make disciples of them.

THE CONSUMMATION of all things including the visible personal return of Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead and the translation of those alive in Christ into the presence of God; the marriage supper of the Lamb, the Millennial Reign of Christ and the final judgment. Until His enemies have become His footstool.

The Mandate

Jeremiah 1:10
Behold! I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

Ephesians 4:11-32
And truly He gave some to be apostles, and some to be prophets, and some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

And this until we all come into the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full-grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; so that we no longer may be infants, tossed to and fro and carried about by every wind of doctrine, in the dishonesty of men, in cunning craftiness, to the wiles of deceit.

But that you, speaking the truth in love, may in all things grow up to Him who is the Head, even Christ; from whom the whole body, fitted together and compacted by that which every joint supplies, according to the effectual working in the measure of each part, producing the growth of the body to the edifying of itself in love.

This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should not walk from now on as other nations walk, in the vanity of their mind, having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.

For they, being past feeling, have given themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and were taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus.

For you ought to put off the old man (according to your way of living before) who is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind.

And you should put on the new man, who according to God was created in righteousness and true holiness.

Therefore putting away lying, let each man speak truth with his neighbour, for we are members of one another.

Be angry, and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down upon your wrath, neither give place to the Devil.

Let him who stole, steal no more, but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, so that he may have something to give to him who needs.

Let not any filthy word go out of your mouth, but if any is good to building up in respect of need, that it may give grace to the ones hearing. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you are sealed until the day of redemption.

Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and tumult and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you.
