OUR BELIEF
The Bible
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God; inspired, infallible and unchangeable
from Genesis to Revelation (2 Timothy 3:16). One God in three people We believe in God
the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, and that the three are one. (1 John 5:7)
DEITY OF CHRIST We believe that Jesus Christ is the Only Son of God, born of a virgin woman; who was
crucified, died and rose again on the third day; He ascended to the heavens and now sits at
the right hand of the Father (Isaiah 7:14, Luke 1:30-35).
SALVATION We believe that salvation is gained through repentance and the confession of sins; it is given
by divine grace (not by works) and is received by faith in Jesus Christ. He is the only
mediator between God and men (Acts 4:12). The resurrection of the dead and eternal life We
believe in the second coming of Christ for His people, that the dead in Christ will rise
first, those who are alive will be taken up by Him, and all will go through the judgment of
God.God. Those whose names are written in the book of life will rise again for eternal life, and
those whose names aren’t will face eternal condemnation (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17,
Revelation 20:11- 15).
SANCTIFICATION We believe in sanctification as a work done instantaneously in the spirit, but one which must
be developed progressively in the soul, and in the body of a child of God (Hebrews 12:14,
Romans 6:19-22).
BAPTISM We believe in the baptism of the Body of Christ, by which the person accepts Jesus, is
born again, and goes on to be part of the Body of Christ and His eternal life. We believe in
the baptism in waters as a sign of identifying with the death (to sin) and the resurrection of
Jesus for eternal life (Romans 6:4). We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the
evidence of speaking in other tongues and that, through this baptism, we receive the power to
be witnesses of Jesus to the whole world (Acts 1:8, Acts 2:4, Mark 16:17)
LAYING OF HANDS We believe that the laying of hands is one of the ways to transfer blessings, healing and
the power of God from one person to another (Acts 8:15-20, 1 Timothy 4:14, 2 Timothy
1:6). The five ministries We believe in the five ministries of Ephesians 4:11, as the gifts
given by God to the body of Christ (Ephesians 4:11).
GOVERMENTAL MINISTRIES We believe in a theocratic government, in which God is recognized as the supreme civil ruler. We
believe the kingdom of God as a government, and the person of Jesus as King, as the two highest and
absolute truths (Acts 8:12). We believe that the apostolic and the prophetic are governing
ministries that establish the foundation and the biblical doctrine of the church (Ephesians
3:5). We believe in establishing the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets,
the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers (Ephesians 4:11).
THE HEALING AND DELIVERING POWER OF THE KINGDOM We believe in the power of the Kingdom to heal the sick, cast out demons, and make
miracles, signs and wonders (Matthew 12:28).
FAITH We believe without faith it is impossible to live a life that is pleasing to God, and that through
it we inherit His promises (Hebrews 11:6).
GOSPEL We believe in expanding the Kingdom at a local, national and international level, through
every means available to us (Matthew 24:14).
