"and hast made us unto our God kings and priests; and we shall reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:10
WHAT WE BELIEVE 💭
🙏Salvation:
We believe in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, alone. Without Jesus, we have no access to the Father. Therefore, we only have access to salvation and eternal life through Jesus Christ.
💒Marriage:
We believe that marriage is a sacred institution established by God, intended as a lifelong union between one man and one woman. We view marriage as a reflection of the relationship between Christ and the Church.
🤲The Godhead:
We believe there is one God who exists eternally in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. We believe that these three are co-equal and co-eternal.
📖The Bible:
We regard the Bible as the inspired and authoritative Word of God. The bible is our only source of doctrine, moral guidance, and spiritual nourishment.
😇The Holy Spirit:
We believe in the personhood and work of the Holy Spirit. We recognize the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Godhead who indwells believers, empowers us for Christian living, convicts us of sin, and guides us into truth. We believe the "Fruit of the Spirit" are the character and virtues produced in the life of a believer through the work of the Holy Spirit, and the "Gifts of the Spirit" are special abilities given to believers by the Holy Spirit for the purpose of ministry and service within the Church. Both are important aspects of Christian life and are intended to work together for the edification of believers and the advancement of God's purposes in the world.
🪽 Gifts of the Spirit:
There are nine gifts given by the Holy Spirit for the common good of the church which are: Word of Wisdom, Word of Knowledge, Faith, Gifts of Healing, Gift of Miracles, Prophecy, Discerning of Spirits, Speaking in Tongues and Interpretation of Tongues. These gifts are given by the Holy Spirit as He wills, and they are intended to be used for the edification and building up of the Church, as well as for the advancement of God's kingdom on Earth.
🎤Five Fold Ministry:
The Five-Fold Ministry is seen as essential for the growth, health, and maturity of the Church. Each of these roles complements and supports the others, working together for the equipping of believers, the edification of the body of Christ, and the fulfillment of God's purposes in the world. While not all Christians may serve in one of these specific leadership roles, the principles of the Five-Fold Ministry are considered relevant for the entire Church as it seeks to fulfill its mission and ministry.
☁️🔥 Heaven and Hell:
We believe that heaven and hell are real and are eternal destinations. We teach that heaven is the eternal dwelling place of God and the redeemed, where believers will experience eternal joy and communion with God. Conversely, hell is understood as a place of eternal separation from God and spiritual death for those who reject Him.
👏The Return of Christ:
We believe that Jesus will return visibly and in glory, just as He ascended into heaven after His resurrection. This return will not be in secret but will be a highly anticipated and unmistakable event. We believe that upon His return, Jesus will judge the living and the dead. This judgment will involve the righteous receiving eternal life in the presence of God, while the unrighteous will face eternal separation from God. We believe that Christ's return will bring about the renewal and restoration of all creation. This includes the transformation of believers' bodies, the defeat of evil, and the establishment of God's kingdom in its fullness. We believe the return of Christ is seen as the fulfillment of numerous prophecies found in both the Old and New Testaments. These prophecies describe the coming of a Messiah who will reign in righteousness and bring about the ultimate victory over sin and death. We believe Christ's return provides hope and assurance, especially in times of suffering, persecution, or uncertainty. It reminds believers that this world is not the final destination, and that ultimate victory belongs to Christ. We are called to live in a state of watchfulness and readiness for Christ's return. This includes being faithful in our relationship with God, living according to His teachings, and actively participating in His mission to bring about justice, mercy, and reconciliation in the world.
