WHAT WE BELIEVE

ABOUT GOD AND JESUS CHRIST 

There is only one God. He has revealed himself to us as our Father, in His son Jesus Christ, and through the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is the son of God, that is, the one God manifested in and through authentic human life. To see Jesus is to see God. (Deut 6.4; John 14.9; Eph 4.4-6; COL 2.9; 1 Tim 3.16).

​

ABOUT THE BIBLE 

The bible is the inspired word of God. It is true in all that it teaches. As the flawless word of God, it is our only authority for what we believe and how we live (2 Tim 3.15-17).

ABOUT SIN AND SALVATION 

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the anointing sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (Rom 3.23-25; 6.23; Eph 2.8-9). 

ABOUT THE GOSPEL AND CONVERSION 

The Gospel in the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel by repenting of our sins (death to sin), being baptized in water in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of our sins (burial), and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit (resurrection). This experience is consistent with the pattern of conversion in the early church (1 Cor 15.1-4; 2 Thes 1.8; 1 Pet 4.17; Mark 1.15; Acts 15.7; Rom 6.3-4; Acts 2.4, 37-39; 8.9-17; 10.1-48; 19.1-7).

ABOUT CHRISTIAN LIVING 

As Christians, we are to love God and love others. We are to worship God joyfully and seek to live a life that is pleasing to Him both inwardly and outwardly—in our thoughts, words, and actions. We are empowered to live a life pleasing to God through the Holy Spirit. As a Pentecostal Church, we believe that the supernatural gifts of the spirit are for the church today and are available to all spirit-filled believers. (Mark 12.28-31; 1 Cor 12.8-10; 2 Cor 7.1; Rom 8.13-14; Gal 5.19-26; Heb 12.14)
