Our Articles of Faith reflect the unchanging truth of God’s Word and the foundation of our belief. Rooted in Scripture, they guide our worship, teaching, and daily walk with Christ. United in doctrine and Spirit, we stand firm in hope as we await His coming glory.
The Holy Bible
This Church accepts the Sacred words of the Sixty Six Books of the Bible as the inspired revelation of God, as the sheet-anchor of Faith and Eternal Hope, and as the basic Creed of the Church and the only standard of life for the believer.
God
That the Eternal, True and Holy Trinity is one God existing as three personalities–The Father, The Son and The Holy Ghost.
Man
That the creation of man was in the likeness of God, that he had a great fall when he transgressed God’s commandments and that only Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God can restore fallen Man to his pristine glory.
Repentance
That the fallen man should approach God with true repentance for sins and unflinching faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ.
Justification
That the man is justified by faith and that guilt is pardoned by the Blood of Christ.
Regeneration
That the man is born of God through the Holy Spirit and the Word of God.
Water Baptism
In order to become one with Christ a believer should be baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit by immersion in water and thus become partakers in the burial and resurrection of Christ.
Separation
That a believer should be separated from sin, sinners, false doctrines and all kinds of worship contrary to the Bible
Lord’s Supper
That the Lord’s Supper is to be celebrated regularly till He comes, to commemorate the Death of Christ.
Baptism in the Holy Spirit
That the believer, should be filled with the Holy Spirit. That the initial sign of speaking in tongues follows the baptism of the Holy Spirit and that the speaking in tongues though the same in essence, is different in its use and operation from that of the gift of tongues.
Divine Healing
Since temporal healing is included in the Sacrifice on the Cross by Christ for atonement of sins, a believer should take it as a right and privilege to get bodily healing by prayer and faith.
Sanctification
That the believer is sanctified by the Blood of Jesus, by the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit.
The Church
That the Church is the congregation of believers; its faith and experience should conform to and stand steadfast in the teaching of the Apostles in the New Testament.
The Ministry
That the ministers of the Church such as Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, Teachers, and Deacons, must be those who are called by the Holy Spirit and bestowed with gifts according to their calling.
Ordination
For those who are specially set apart for the ministry of the Church, Ordination should be by the laying of hands as in the New Testament.
Evangelization
Evangelization is the supreme duty and privilege of the Church.
Coming of Jesus Christ
Jesus is coming soon in the mid-air and that the Bride will be caught up when Jesus comes.
Great Tribulation
That there is to be a great tribulation on the earth when Anti-Christ will be in his power soon after the coming of Jesus Christ in the mid-air, and the rapture of the Church.
The Millennium
That at the end of the tribulation Jesus will come to earth in all His Glory with His Saints and establish His own Kingdom of Righteousness for thousand years.
The Great Judgment
That after the millennium, Satan and his hosts will be cast forever into the lake of fire and there will be judgment before the great White Throne for all the wicked who also will meet with the same punishment.
The New Heaven and New earth
That at the time of the great judgment this present earth and heaven shall be burned with fire and New Heaven and New Earth shall appear.
Feet-Washing and Child Dedication
Feet-washing and dedication of children are acceptable.
