Our Beliefs
We believe the Word of God includes the proclamation of both the eternal power of Calvary and the potential power of the Pentecost; the power of Jesus Christ for salvation because of the crucifixion/resurrection and the filling/controlling power of the Holy Spirit for service and the holy victorious living because of Pentecost. Acts20:27; Acts 1:8
We believe in the value of all spiritual gifts for the edification of believers and the body of Christ until the end of this church age is consummated by the glorious event return of our Lord Jesus Christ. We believe these spiritual gifts are given for the perfecting of the spirits for the work of ministry and for the edifying of the body of Christ, and are given without regard to ethnicity, social class or gender. I Corinthians 12-163; Romans 12:3-7; Ephesians 4:11-12
We believe in the formal and the international praise and worship of the Almighty God as a proper spirit-led corporate acknowledgment and response to his person and work. Psalm 46-50: John 4:23
We believe Jesus Christ as the baptizer with the Holy Spirit where by He, by means of the Holy Spirit, brings Men and women to salvation into relationship with Himself and His Body, the church. Believers are never commanded to be baptized with the Holy Spirit; it is in fact the baptism of the Holy Spirit that makes one a part of the body of Christ. All believers have been baptized by Christ the Holy Spirit. Matthew 3:11; John 1:33; I Corinthians 12:13
We believe in the dwelling of the Holy Spirit for all Christians; it is in fact this indwelling of the Holy Spirit that verifies and validates the believers as a part of the Body of Christ, for He only indwells believers. Romans 8: 14-27
We believe in the Bible is the written and Holy Spirit inspired Word of God. We believe in the truth found in the scriptures is absolute, inerrant and infallible. The scriptures are the final authority for the life of the believer and the church. We believe all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is the profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness 2 Timothy 3:15-17
