What Do We Believe
1
Baptism of the Holy Spirit
As promised by the Lord Jesus to all believers, the Holy Spirit empowers believers to develop the character of Christ and to have power to be witnesses. An evidence of which is speaking with other tongues. Matthew 3:11, Acts 1:8, Acts 22
Created in God's Image
Men and women are created in the likeness and image of God but separated from God by sin through Adam’s transgression and fall. It is only through Jesus that we can have a personal relationship with God. Genesis 1:26, 1 Timothy 2:5, Romans 5:12-21, 1 John 3:83
Grace of God
Jesus Christ, the Son of God gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God. It is not a result of what we do but of the grace of God, being justified by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:1, Romans 3:24, Romans 5:12-21, Romans 10:9-104
Fruit of the Holy Spirit
Each believer is filled with the fruit of the Holy Spirit which reflect God’s character and nature and as we grow in God we develop the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:16-26, Matthew 3:10, John 15:1-175
Trinity
There is one true God existing eternally in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19, John 10:30, John 14:26, Ephesians 4:4-6, Philippians 2:5-76
Divine Healing
Healing is active in the lives of people today through our healer, Jesus Christ. Healing includes physical, mental, emotional and spiritual restoration. Acts 3:1-10, Luke 9:11, Matthew 9:35, Acts 10:38, Matthew 10:17
Hell
The Bible describes hell as a real place and mentions it more times than heaven. It is a place of suffering, torment and permanent separation from God for those who physically die without accepting Christ. God’s desire is that no one be separated from Him for eternity, which is why He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to earth. Hebrews 9:27, Matthew 25:31-46, Mark 9:43-48, Mark 16:15-16, Revelation 20:12-15, John 3:16-188
Ordinance of the Church
The head of the church, the Lord Jesus Christ established two ordinances for the church to follow; water baptism and communion. Water baptism is a public confession of our faith and symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus. The ordinance of communion is The Lord’s Supper, which consists of the bread representing the body of Christ and the cup representing the blood that was shed for us for the forgiveness of sins. Matthew 28:19, 1 Peter 3:21, 1 Corinthians 11:17-30, Matthew 26:17-299
