Statement Of Faith

Statement of Faith

We believe:
  • The Holy Bible is the authoritative scriptural text and is, without error, the Word of God.
  • The Holy Trinity existent in God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The three are one.
  • Jesus was born of a virgin as prophesied by the scriptures.
  • Jesus Christ lived in a sinless life, died bodily on a cross, rose bodily from the grave after being dead for three days, and is still alive today.
  • Jesus' death was for the remission of sin and reconciliation of people to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved.
  • Jesus physically ascended into heaven, after showing himself alive, and is now seated at God's right hand.
  • In the baptism through water immersion, in the name of Jesus.
  • In the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evidence in speaking in tongues.
  • In the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit (physical healing, spiritual freedom, prophetic words, etc.).
  • God's deliverance of people from the power of the enemy (demonic activity, fear, insecurity).

Scriptures

Ezekiel 47:9 [KJV]
And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.
Revelation 22:1-2
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
John 7:38
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
