THE SCRIPTURES

• We believe the Bible to be the only infallible authoritative Word of God.

The Bible is the inspired Word of God. The Scriptures are the divine revelations given from God to men.
The Biblie is Word of God.
The Word of God is the direct revelation of the will of God for all men and for all time. The Scriptures were plenary-verbally inspired, that is the Holy Spirit breathed upon men the very words and thoughts He wanted in conjunction with the writers personalities, traits and emotions. The Holy Spirit guarded and preserved each thought, phrase and word from any error, omission or inaccuracy.

Ex 24:4
I Thess 2:13
II Tim 3:16-17
Heb 4:12
II Pet 3:2

		THE ONE GOD - THREE PERSONS -TRINITY

• We believe that there is only one God, revealed in three Persons: The Father, The Son and the Holy Ghost.

Our God is revealed in Scriptures as the eternal Godhead,existing in three persons - The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. God is one undivided and invisible essence, yet with three eternal distinctions: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, being coequal
God the Father is greater than all; the Sender of the Word (Logos) The Son is the Word flesh-covered, the One Begotten, and has existed with the Father from the beginning . The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son and is eternal

J 1:1
J 1:18
J 1:14
J 14:16
J 15:26

		THE DEITY OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

• We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, the 2nd member of the Godhead, who pre-existed with the Father and the Holy Spirit. Through the Incarnation and Virgin Birth, Jesus took upon Himself the form of Man, thus revealing Himself as the God-Man. Jesus Christ was sinless, perfect, crucified, buried, resurrected, ascended, glorified and He will come again to earth a second time. He is the perfect Mediator between God and Man because in the person of Christ is the fully divine and the fully human. Of the same substance with the Father as to His divinity, yet of the same substance with us as to His humanity. Perfect in deity, perfect in humanity.

J 1:1-3, 14-18
Cols 1:15-19
Phil 2:5-8
I Tim 2:5-6

		MAN, HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION

• We believe that man in his natural state, is a sinner - lost, without hope and without God.

Man is a created being and was made in the likeness and image of God(both male and female), but through Adam's transgression and fall, sin came into the world.
The man in his natural state, is a sinner - lost, without hope and without God.
The Bible says "...all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God," and "...There is none righteous, no, not one."
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to undo the work of the devil and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God. Salvation is the free gift of God to Man, separate from works and the Law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God.

1 J 3:8
Eph 2:8-10
Rom 3:10, Rom 3:23, Rom 5:14;
Gal 3:22

		ETERNAL LIFE AND THE NEW BIRTH

• We believe in eternal life and the new birth-that man whoes received Jesus Christ as Personal Savior and Lord he will be new creation, child of God; we are is workmanship

"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them; we have the eternal life.

J 3:3-5
Eph 2:10
Gal 6:15
2 Cor 7:10
1 J 5:12

		WATER BAPTISM

• We believe the water baptism - is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection.

The following recommendation regarding the water baptismal formula is adopted; to wit: "On the confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by His authority, I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen."

Matt 28:19
Acts 8:36-39
Rom 6:4
Col 12

		BAPTISM IN THE HOLY GHOST

• We believe the baptism in the Holy Spirit is given to believers who ask for it.

The Baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the new birth. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance

Matt 3:11
J 14:16,17
Acts 1:8
Acts 2:1-4
Acts 2:38,39
Acts 19:1-7

		SANCTIFICATION

• We believe in santification

The Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord. We believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation at Christ's return.

I Thess 5:23
II Cor 3:18
Phil 3:12-14
Phil 2.12
I Cor 1:30

		DIVINE HEALING

• We believe in divenie healing

Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith, and by the laying on of hands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privilege of every member of the Church today

J 7:23
Isa. 53:4,5
Mark 16:18
Matt 8:17
James 5:14,15
1 P 2:24

		THE CHURCH

• We believe in church

The Church is the community of the people who were called out supernaturally, who believe in Jesus Christ and were born again. The Church is the property of Jesus Christ, which is being built and directed by Him. Jesus Christ has only one Church, which is composed of the local churches.
The local church is the community of the saints living in a given place at a given time. Those who died after having received the ransom of God and those who live after having received salvation through faith and those who will be called by God in the future are all members of the Church.

Accordin the bible the church is:
The Body of Christ
The Bride of Christ
The Temple(building) of God
The Army of God

		ORDINANCES OF THE CHURCH

• We believe in two ordinances for the Church

The Lord Jesus Christ, Head of the Church, established two ordinances for the Church to follow: Water Baptism and Communion. Baptism in water, by full immersion, is a direct commandment of our Lord. While it is not necessary for salvation, it is for all believers. This ordinance is an outward sign of an inward work. It symbolizes a believer’s identification with Jesus in His death, burial and resurrection.
The ordinance of Communion is also a commandment of the Lord Jesus that must be received consistently until His return. Only believers can come to the Table of the Lord, which consists of the bread and the cup. The bread speaks of His body, which was broken for us. The cup speaks of His blood that was shed for us. Both elements are witnesses of the New Covenant believers now enjoy while prophetically declaring His soon return.

Matt 28:19
Luk 22:7-20
I Pet 3:21
I Cor 11:17-30

		THE GIFTS OF HOLY SPIRIT

• We believe in the gifts of Holy Spirit

There is a 9 supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit.
The goals of these gifts are:
• continuing and extending the service of Jesus Christ in every nation
• building and strengthening the Body of Christ
• satisfying and supplying the spiritual and physical needs of the Church

The gifts of Holy spirit must be used, however, in good and correct manner and in subjection to the Word of God

I Cor 12:1-31
I Cor 14

		THE MINISTRY GIFT

• We believe in the ministry of gifts

Jesus Christ - after his ascension to heaven, as the Head of the Church - put ministry gifts into the Church. The five most important ones: apostle, prophet, teacher, evangelist and pastor.
• The apostle: the servant (literally: ambassador) of Jesus Christ whose task is to plant, found and strengthen local churches and to oversee the working local churches.
• The prophet: in the name of God gives revelations and vision from God to the Church. The message of the prophet is strengthening, encouraging and comforting the Church.
• The teacher: on the basis of God's Word improves, trains and builds the Church in the knowledge of God.
• The evangelist: the messenger of the salvation of Christ who - with this activity - lays down the foundation of the Church.
• The pastor: the keeper, leader and shepherd of the sheep of Jesus Christ in the churches who - according to the guidance of the Holy Spirit - feed the believers entrusted to him with spiritual and mental food.
Through the ministry gifts Jesus Christ is directing, building and teaching the Church.

Eph 4.11

		RESURRECTION OF THE JUST AND THE RETURN OF OUR LORD - THE END OF ALL THINGS

• We believe in resurrection of the just and the return of our Lord Jesus Christ

- The angels said to Jesus' disciples, "...This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." His coming is imminent. When He comes,
Jesus promised to return for His church. Scriptures tell us that when Jesus returns the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we, which are alive and remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. Immediately after this catching away of the saints, the Tribulation period, spoken of in Revelation, will begin. Following the Tribulation, Jesus shall visibly return to earth, accompanied by the saints, to set up His Kingdom upon the earth. He shall reign with His saints on the earth for a thousand years, during which time Satan will be bound in the bottomless pit. After this 1,000-year period, Satan will be loosed for a short time, ending in his eternal torment in the lake of fire while the Great White Throne Judgment occurs for those who never received the Lord in their earthly lifetime. Then the new heavens and the new earth will be revealed and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

		HELL AND ETERNAL RETRIBUTION

• We believe in hell and eternal retribution

The one who physically dies in his sins without accepting Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the Lake of Fire and therefore has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting. The Lake of Fire is literal. The terms "eternal" and "everlasting" used in describing the duration of the punishment of the damned in the Lake of Fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstasy of saints in the presence of God.

Mark 16:15-16
