STATEMENT OF FAITH

---

· We believe the Bible to be the inspired, and only infallible, authoritative Word of God that reveals the love of God and His plan of redemption through Christ Jesus to the world.
 

· We believe that there is one God who is the Creator, Maker and Sustainer of life, eternally existent in three persons: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. He is the Father of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob, and He is the Father of us, meaning we who are HIs Church.

· We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His pure sinless life and in His miracles. 

We believe in His victorious and atoning death through His shed blood upon the cross, in His bodily resurrection after being in the grave three (3) days. He then arose from the dead with all power. Then after forty (40) days He then ascended to the right hand of the Father. We as Believers look forward to His return. For we know at God’s command He will break through the sky returning in power and glory to return for His Church.
 

· We believe that all men everywhere are lost without God and face the judgment of God. Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation. We are all saved by the grace of God, upon the profession of our faith and belief. Salvation is the gift of God by which we are redeemed. Repentance of sin and faith in Jesus Christ results in regeneration by the Holy Spirit. Furthermore, we believe that God will reward the righteous with eternal life in Heaven, and that He will banish the unrighteous to everlasting punishment in hell.

· We believe in the omnipresent ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose indwelling presence enables the Christian to live a godly life.

· We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of eternal life and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation and eternal punishment.
 

· We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in the Lord Jesus Christ and that all true believers are members of His Body, which is His Church and Christ Jesus is the Head.
 

· We believe that the ministry of evangelism is proclaiming, preaching, teaching and, sharing the message of salvation is only possible by God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ. As believers and followers of Christ  we are to “live out loud ‘ the Word of God. Discipleship comes with responsibility to encourage followers of Christ to grow spiritually and strive for maturity in Christ.

· We believe God’s plan for human sexuality is to be expressed only within the context of marriage. God created man and woman as unique biological persons made in His image to unite with  each other as husband and wife. God instituted monogamous marriage between male and female as the foundation of the family  from the beginning, Marriage is His  basic foundational structure for human society. For this reason, we believe that marriage is exclusively the union of one genetic male and one genetic female.

· We believe that we must dedicate ourselves to prayer, to the service of our Lord, to His authority over our lives, as part of the Body of Christ/His Church “Praying without ceasing” is a state of mind that keeps us connected to God.

· We believe that human life is sacred from conception to its natural end; and that we must have concern for the physical and spiritual needs of our fellowmen.
 

· As Believers we are to; “…Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and everything else will be added unto us.” Matthew 6.
