Blessings in Jesus Name

The sole basis of our beliefs is the Bible, God’s infallible written Word, all the books of the Old and New Testaments. I believe that it was uniquely, verbally, and fully inspired by the Holy Spirit and that it was written without error (inerrant) in the original manuscripts. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters on which it speaks. 

I accept those areas of doctrinal teaching on which, historically, there has been general agreement among all true Christians. Because of the specialized calling of our movement, I desire to allow for freedom of conviction on other doctrinal matters, provided that any interpretation is based upon the Bible alone, and that no such interpretation shall become an issue which hinders the ministry to which God has called us. 

There is one true God, eternally existing in three persons known as the Godhead – Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit – each of whom possesses equally all the attributes of Deity and the characteristics of the Godhead and personality. Jesus Christ is God, the living Word, who became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and that He was born of a virgin as the scripture says. Hence, He is perfect Deity and true humanity united in one person forever. He lived a sinless life and voluntarily atoned for human sins by dying on the cross as a substitute for all men, thus satisfying divine justice and accomplishing salvation for all who trust in Him alone. He rose from the dead in the same body, which was glorified, in which He lived and died. He ascended bodily into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father, where He, the only mediator between God and humanity, continually makes intercession for His own. 

Adam the male and Eve the female, were originally created in the image of God and co-equal. They sinned by disobeying God; thus, they by their own action of disobedience, were alienated from their Creator and as a result of the fall, the result was "and thy submission shall be to thy husband and he shall rule over thee," which was a result of their fall and created the inequities we see in this fallen world and relationships today. 

That historic fall brought all people under divine condemnation. Human nature is corrupted. As a result, all people who are unregenerated (not born again) are totally in a state of rebellion against The Father God, The only begotten Son and The Holy Spirit. 

Everyone is in need of regeneration (being born again) and renewal by the Holy Spirit. Salvation is wholly a work of God The Father's free grace and is not the work, in whole or in part, of human works or goodness or religious ceremony. God imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in The Lord Jesus Christ alone for their salvation, and are thereby justified in His sight. 

It is the privilege of all who are born again of the Holy Spirit to be assured of their salvation from the very moment in which they trust Christ Jesus as their Savior. This assurance is not based upon any kind of human merit, but is produced by the witness of the Holy Spirit, who confirms in the believer the testimony of God in His written word. The Holy Spirit has come into the world to reveal and glorify Christ Jesus and to apply the saving work of Christ Jesus to all individuals who trust in Him alone for salvation. (See 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.) 

The Holy Spirit convicts and draws sinners to The Lord Jesus Christ, imparts new life to them, continually indwells them from the moment of spiritual birth and seals them until the day of redemption. His fullness, power and control are appropriated in the believer's life by faith. Believers are called to live so in the power of the indwelling Spirit. 

Believers should fight against the lust of the flesh and will have the witness of Christ Jesus, Him crucified, buried, and resurrected on the third day, to the Glory of God The Father. Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, His Body, which is composed of all people, living and dead, who have been joined to Him through saving faith. The scripture admonishes His people to assemble together regularly for worship, for edification through The Scriptures, for prayer, fellowship and for mutual encouragement. 

At physical death the believer enters immediately into eternal, conscious fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ and awaits the resurrection of the body to everlasting glory and blessing. At physical death the unbeliever enters immediately into eternal, conscious separation from the Lord Jesus Christ and awaits the resurrection of the body to everlasting judgment and condemnation. 

The Lord Jesus Christ will call His Bride, The Church, home to be with Him for The Marriage Supper of The Lamb. Jesus Christ will come again with His Saints to the earth – personally, visibly and bodily – to consummate history and the eternal plan of God and we will rule and reign with Christ Jesus on the Earth. 

The Lord Jesus Christ commanded all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to disciple people from every nation. The fulfillment of that Great Commission is paramount and should be the focus of every believer.    

All people who have believed on Jesus, no matter their ethnicity, are my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus The Lord.
