Our Belief

Our belief rests on the entirety of Scripture, both Old and New Testaments, inspired by the Holy Spirit (II Tim. 3:16-17). All Christian doctrines and conduct derive from the Holy Bible (II Tim. 3:10-15; II Peter 1:21; John 17:17; Ps. 119:105). The Bible represents God's will, guiding humanity's relationship with Him, the path to salvation, consequences for sinners, and the promise of eternal joy for believers. Its teachings are immutable, enduring beyond time itself (Deut. 4:22; Rev. 22:18-19; Matt. 24:34-38).

We affirm belief in the singular God, Creator of all visible and invisible entities (Gen. 1:1; Ps. 86:9-10; Is. 43:10-11; John 1:1-3). God is eternal, the source of all life (Ez. 3:14; John 5:26).

Jesus Christ, as the Son of God, redeemed humanity from sin, born of the Virgin Mary, and is the divine incarnation (John 1:1-14; John 14:9; Matt. 1:18-25; Is. 9:6; Is. 53:5-6). His death and resurrection achieved redemption for humanity (Is. 53:4-10; I Pet. 2:24; John 10:11; Gal. 3:13).

The Holy Spirit, part of the Trinity, shares in the glory and power of God the Father and God the Son (John 14:16-17; John 15:26; Matt. 3:16; Acts 13:24). He performs various roles including teaching, guiding, regeneration, sanctification, and empowering believers (Acts 16:6-7; John 3:5-6; John 16:8; Eph 1:17-19; I Cor. 12:7; Acts 1:8).

The Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—is one divine entity, akin to the components of an egg forming a single unit (Gen. 1:16-29; Matt. 3:16-17; Matt. 18:19).

We acknowledge the existence of Satan, the adversary of humanity, responsible for sin and death (Gen. 3:1-16; Matt. 4:1-11; James 4:7; I Peter 5:8). His ultimate defeat and punishment are foreseen (Rev. 20:7-10).

Humans are created by God, comprising body, soul, and spirit, entrusted with dominion over creation (Gen. 1:26-28). Repentance, justification, sanctification, and dedication are pivotal for spiritual growth and alignment with God's will.

We adhere to baptism by immersion in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, as outlined in the New Testament (Matt. 28:19). Baptism symbolizes repentance and participation in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection (Rom. 6:1-23; Col. 2:12-13).

All believers are encouraged to seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit, received through faith and obedience to God's commands (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-5; Acts 2:38-39). Speaking in tongues accompanies this experience (Acts 2:4; Acts 10:34-36; Acts 19:2-6).

Prayer, central to Christian life, should be conducted in Jesus' name and with faith (John 16:23; I Tim. 2:25; James 1:6-8; Heb. 11:6). It's essential for believers to pray without ceasing, seeking God's guidance and blessings (Col. 4:2; I Thess. 5:17).

True repentance includes making amends for wrongs committed, following biblical guidelines (Lev. 6:1-7; Luke 19:8; Prov. 28:13; Acts 24:16).

Healing without medicine is a biblical practice, rooted in Christ's atonement (Matt. 4:23; Ps. 103:3). Believers are encouraged to seek healing through prayer, laying on of hands, and faith (James 5:14-15; Mark 16:18; Acts 28:8).

Prophetic gifts are valued in the Church, provided they align with biblical teachings (I Cor. 14:29; I Thess. 5:20).

Church discipline is essential for maintaining biblical standards, with disobedient members subject to correction and rebuke (Matt. 18:15-18; I Tim. 5:20; I Cor. 5:1-13).

Christian ethics extend to family life, societal obligations, and respect for authority, with adherence to biblical principles (I Peter 2:13-14; Rom 13:1-5; Eph. 6:1-3).

Monogamy is upheld, with divorce permitted only in cases of adultery (Matt. 5:31-32; Matt. 19:9; Mark 10:11-12).

The Lord's Supper, observed in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice, is a solemn practice for believers (Luke 22:17-20; I Cor. 11:23-30).

Believers constitute the Church of God, tasked with spreading the Gospel and worshipping Christ (Eph. 1:22; Acts 2:41-47; Matt. 28:19).

The text outlines beliefs concerning the resurrection, Second Coming of Christ, judgment, and eternal life, with a vision for a new Heaven and Earth (Rev. 20:11-15; Matt. 25:46; Rev. 21:1-3).

Children are dedicated to God, as seen in biblical examples (1 Sam. 1:22; Luke 2:22-24; Matt. 19:13-15).

Sunday is recognized as the Lord's Day, a time for worship and fellowship (Acts 20:7; I Cor. 16:2; Rev. 1:10).
