| We believe that "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (Hebrews 13:8) and that His ministry in and through the church by the Holy Spirit has not changed from the beginning. We accept, believe and encourage and seek all the biblical gifts and ministries of the Holy Spirit as present and important for the church to accompolish her full purpose today, as it has been down through the years. We believe in the Trinity of the Godhead: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. (Philippians 2:6 & Matthew 3:16-17) We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. We believe the New Covenant, as it is recorded in the New Testament, as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine (II Timothy 3:16 & I Thessalonians 2:13 & II Peter 1:21). We believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, was crucified on the cross, shed His blood for the remission of our sins, was burried and arose on the third day. We believe in baptism in water, by immersion, is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for the believers....those that have accepted Jesus as their Savior. This ordinance is a symbol of the believer's identification with Christ, in His death, burial and resurrection. (Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:12, Acts 8:36-39) We believe that the "baptism in the Holy Spirit" is an additional impartation which may be subsequent to regeneration (Acts 8:15-17 & 19:1-6) This baptism is usually accompanied by the gifts of the Spirit, such as speaking in tongues, prophecy, of healings, etc. We believe that this gift is presently available to all who believe, (Acts 2:38-39), but is not essential for salvation or regeneration. Paul made it a priority to instruct those believers and pray for them to receive this gift, we are committed to doing the same. The purpose of the baptism in the Holy Spirit is to impart spiritual power to the believer to be a witness (Acts 1:8, 5:32).This baptism is to be distinguished from being filled with the Spirit (Acts 4:31, 7:55, 13:9,52), which can be a special and repeated empowering for specific purposes. (Read I Corinthians chapter 12) We believe in the Divine Healing and the Laying on of Hands. Healing is for the physical ills of the human body, and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith, and by the laying on of hands. (Mark 16:18, James 5:14-20, I Peter 2:24, Matthew 8:17, Isaiah 53:4,5) The Biblical doctorine (Hebrews 6:2) was practiced by the Levitical Priesthood and His disciples. Laying on of hands was practiced for imparting the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Acts 8:16-18) for healing (Mark 5:22,23 & 41, Mark 2:28-31, Acts 28:8, Acts 19:11-12), to confer office (Acts 6:2-6) to anoint (I Timothy 4:14), to ordain, and to consecrate the believer into the office of the Lord. We believe in the "Full Word of God", letting in work through us for the Glory of God....it is not us, but God in us. |
