The Essentials We Believe
There is only one true eternal God, revealed in 3 persons; Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and one God, the Creator and Ruler of the universe.
About God & the Trinity
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and will return again someday to earth to reign as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
About Jesus Christ
All believers are entitled to and should earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ. With it comes an enduement of power for life and service, and it amplifies gifts and anointing, which God has given.
About the Holy Spirit
The Bible is God’s Word to us. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is the truth without any errors.
About the Bible
Salvation is God’s free gift to us, but we must accept it. We can never make up for our sin by self-improvement or good works. Only by accepting Jesus Christ as one’s personal Lord and Savior can one be saved from the penalty of sin.
About Salvation
People were created to exist forever. We will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is eternal life. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence.
About Eternity
About Divine Healing
Since the time of the apostles, there have been individuals who had faith in God for the healing of their bodies and miracles have been demonstrated in the name of Jesus Christ. The spirit-filled church accepts the doctrine of divine healing, and many can testify of it in their own bodies.
About the Blessed Hope
The blessed hope of the church is the catching away, or the rapture, of the saints. The Bible teaches those who are saved will be delivered from the wrath of God. When Jesus returns for His bride living Christians will be changed, those who have died in Christ will be raised in glory, and all Christians will forever be with the Lord.
