Doctrinal Statement

Statement of Fundamental Truths

The Bible is our all-sufficient rule for faith and practice. This Statement of Fundamental Truths is intended simply as a basis of fellowship among us (i.e. that we all speak the same thing, I Corinthians 1:10; Acts 2:42). The phraseology employed in this Statement is not inspired or contended for, but the truth set forth is held to be essential to a full-gospel ministry. No claim is made that it contains all Biblical truth, only that it covers our need as to these fundamental doctrines.

• We believe the Holy Bible, consisting of both Old and New Testaments, is the inspired revelation of God to man. Therefore, the Scriptures are the infallible, authoritative rule for all matters of faith and conduct. (II Timothy 3:15-17; I Thessalonians 2:13; II Peter 1:21)
• We believe the One True God, who is eternally self existent, is the Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind. Almighty God is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10-11)

o His virgin birth (Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:31, 35)

o His sinless life (Hebrews 7:26; I Peter 2:22)

o His miracles (Acts 2:22; 10:38)

o His redemptive work (I Corinthians 15:3; II Corinthians 5:21)

o His bodily resurrection (Matthew 28:6; Luke 24:39; I Corinthians 15:4)

o His exaltation to the right hand of God (Acts 1:9, 11; 2:33; Philippians 2:9-11; Hebrews 1:3)

· We believe in the Spiritual New Birth of repentant sinners who, having faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His resurrection, receive the regenerative work of the Holy Spirit. This experience, provided by the vicarious death and redemptive work of the blood of Jesus Christ, brings a person into a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. (John 3:3-8; Romans 3:24-25; 10:9-13)

· We believe the Holy Spirit Baptism, as experienced in the early Christian Church, is promised to all believers in Christ, imparting to them spiritual gifts (charisma), to edify the Body of Christ and to equip for Christian service. (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8; I Corinthians 12:1-31). This experience is distinct from and subsequent to the new birth and enables the believer to receive a spiritual language (glossalalia) for personal edification and prayer. (Acts 8:12-17; 10:44-46; 11:14-16; 15:7-9)

· We believe the Church of Jesus Christ is the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of the Great Commission. Each believer, having been born of the Spirit, is a valuable part of the Body of Christ. We further believe in a called and ordained five-fold ministry for the purpose of the evangelization of the world and the edifying of the Body of Christ (Mark 16:15-20; Ephesians 4:11-13)

· We believe in the Second Coming of Christ to receive the Church unto Himself and to rule and reign forever. The return of Jesus Christ is imminent and will precede His reign upon the earth and the final judgments. Afterward, there will be a New Heaven and New Earth. (John 14:1-3; I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 11:15; 20:12-13; 21:1)
