Our Beliefs
-
Jesus ChristJesus of Nazareth is the Christ, the Son of the living God. He came to the world purposely to save sinners according to the scriptures. He has existed throughout eternity, one of the Persons of the Holy Trinity. He is the Son, the only begotten Son of God and the beloved of God. His coming to the world had been foretold before He ever came in the flesh to die for us. He was born by the Virgin Mary, conceived of the Holy Spirit, without sin. He lived a perfect life, preached the gospel of the kingdom of God, performed miracles, healed the sick and raised the dead. He voluntarily surrendered His life to His enemies to be crucified. He then resurrected and ascended to heaven to become our high priest. Jesus Christ will return to establish the kingdom of God on earth, and rule as King of Kings and Lord of Lords with His saints forever. Matthew 17:15-17 | John 1:1-14 | Acts 2:32-33 | Hebrews 4:14-15 | Revelation 1:13-16
-
The BibleWe believe that the Bible is "God's Word". The truths revealed in it did not have their origin with men, but with God. The Holy Spirit inspired the human authors of the Bible. We, therefore, believe that the Bible is without error, completely true, relevant and an up-to-date book. We receive the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament as eternal, authoritative, coherent, complete and all-sufficient, and the only infallible rule of faith. Its message is intended primarily for the human race. It is expressed in words and in terms, which human beings can understand. It's central theme and purpose is the salvation of man. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 | 2 Peter 1:20-21 | Psalm 12:6 | Matthew 24:35 | Psalm 119:160
-
The TrinityWe believe in the Divine Trinity. Our Triune God exists in three Persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - eternal in being, identical in nature, equal in power and glory and having the same attributes and perfections. Matthew 3:16-17 | 2 Corinthians 13:14 | Hebrews 9:14 | 1 Peter 1:2 | 1 John 5:7
-
SalvationSin is an inward spiritual attitude of rebellion towards God, which is expressed in outward acts of disobedience. Man in his fallen state cannot approach God or save himself and therefore needs a saviour. Jesus Christ came to save us from our sins. Himself without sin, He took our sins upon Him, died in our place, and rose again from the dead, that we might be forgiven and receive eternal life. The word salvation in the Greek means "Soteria" which is translated "saving" or "Deliverance" and preservation from destruction and judgement. To appropriate salvation, we must acknowledge our sins and repent from them; we must believe that Christ died for us, and rose again; we must receive the risen Christ as our personal Saviour, and we must publicly confess Him as our Lord. Hebrews 9:29 | Romans 3:10,23 | Acts 3:19 | Romans 10:8-13 | Jude 3:24
-
SanctificationThe word sanctification in the Greek language is "hagiasmos" meaning (1) to be apart from (2) consecrated unto God, to be conformed to His holiness, purity, and perfection of character. The scripture teaches that "sanctified" is what the believer is [not a process, but a state, which the believer has already entered into once and for all. Acts 20:32; Romans 15:16; 2 Thessalonians 2:13; Hebrews 10:10-14; Ephesians 5:25-26; 1 Peter 1:2; Acts 26:18], and "perfect" is what he is expected to be. Perfection is a spiritual growth for those who have been sanctified and consecrated. Therefore it is the total yielding of one's life to the Holy Spirit, living the crucified life; being an overcomer, and being conformed to the image of Christ Himself. perfection and true holiness are impossible without the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. All attempts at achieving perfection without the Holy Spirit generally results in frustration and failure, inasmuch as "flesh" cannot crucify the flesh. 1 Peter 2:21-22 | 1 Peter 1:15 | John 3:8-9 | 1 Corinthians 10:13 | Matthew 5:48
-
Baptism of The Holy SpiritThe baptism in the Holy Ghost is a supernatural endowment with power from heaven to equip Christians for effective witness and service. The initial evidence of the Holy Spirit Baptism is speaking in an unknown tongue as the Spirit gives utterance. The unknown tongue is a prayer language given to the believer, understood by God but unknown to man. It enables the Christian to build up his own spiritual life by direct and continual communion with God and is the gateway into a life in which both the gifts and fruits of the Holy Ghost should be manifested. In the New Testament church, this experience was considered normal for all believers. Joel 2:28 | Luke 3:16 | Acts 2:38-39 | Acts 19:2 | Mark 16:17
-
The Fall of ManMan (Adam) was created in the image of God before whom he walked in innocence, holiness, and purity, but by voluntary disobedience and transgression, he fell from the glory of God to the depths of sin. The consequence of this is that all mankind became sinners by nature having been born after the fallen image of Adam. In his fallen state man is incapable of pleasing God or having any relationship with Him. Every man is totally inclined to evil, guilty, and without excuse, deserving the condemnation and judgement of a just and Holy god. Genesis 1:26-31 | Genesis 2:7 | Psalm 139:14 | Col. 1:16 | Psalm 51:5 | Mark 1:15
-
The Rapture of The ChurchThe rapture describes an event in the future when Jesus Christ will in the twinkling of an eye, change all believers (living and dead) to immortal, giving them a resurrected body, and catching them up to meet the Lord in the air. The word rapture simply means sudden snatching out of this world of the believers. The actual word used in the Bible is "caught up". This event marks the beginning of the seven years reign of Antichrist. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 | 1 Corinthians 15:23, 51-58 | Phil 3:2-21 | 1 John 3:1-3 | Luke 21:31-35
-
The Great TribulationThis is a seven-year span of the future world history of the reign of antichrist following immediately after the rapture. It will be the darkest time this world has ever known. It is "the day of vengeance of our Lord." Man's cup of iniquity is filled to overflowing, and God brings judgement upon the earth for man's rejection of His son. During this period, the people of Israel will turn to Christ, when they will be reconciled to God through Him whom they rejected and whom they asked Pilate to crucify. Daniel 9:24-27 | Isaiah 61:2 | Revelation 19 | I Thessalonians 1:10 | Revelation 3:10
-
Divine HealingSickness is a direct consequence of the fall of man and his continuance in sin. Redemption not only dealt with sin but also its consequences, which includes sickness and diseases. Christ died on the cross; bore not only our sins but also our sicknesses. Healing for our bodies from God comes to us through the appropriation of the finished work of Christ on the cross of Calvary by faith in the word of God and manifestation of the gift of healing. Not only believers receive healing for our bodies, but also we may minister healing and deliverance to others in the name of Jesus. This can be accomplished by laying on of hands, praying for others in absentia and by getting Bible-believing church elders to anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. Luke 13:11,16 | 2 Corinthians 1:19-20 | 1 John 3:8 | Mark 16:17-18
