The one true God

We believe in one true God who has revealed Himself as externally self-existent “I AM.” The creator of Heaven and Earth and the redeemer of mankind .He has further revealed Himself as one God existing in three persons: father, son and the Holy spirit, distinguishable but indivisible (Gen 1:26 , mat 28:19 , 2 Corinthians 13:14 ,Isaiah 43:10-13 ). All three have expressed themselves separately but at the same time is one. (Isa. 42:1 , 48:16 , Dan 17:13 , Deu.6:4).

The Fall of a Man

We believe in creation , test and fall of a man as recorded in Genesis, his total spiritual depravity and inability to attain divine righteousness (Gen. 1:26 ,27;2:17;3:6-19; Romans 5:12-18).

The deity of the lord Jesus Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal son of God. The scripture declares:

His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Mathew 1:23; Luke 1:3-35)

His sinless life (Hebrew 7:26; 1 Peter 2:22)

His miracles (acts 2:22;10:38)

His substitution work on the cross (1 cor. 15:2-3)

His bodily resurrection from the death (Mathew 28:6; Luke 24:39;1 Cor 15:4)

His exaltation to the right hand of God (acts 1:9;2:33;philipians 2:9-11.; Hebrews 1:3)

The Salvation of Man

we believe in salvation of sinners by Grace. Man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ; the son of God.

1. Conditions to salvation are received through repentance ,asking Jesus to come into our heart. By the washing of the rebirth and grace through faith, man becomes a new creation .(Ephesians 2:8; Hebrew 9:12,22 , Romans 5:11; 2 Corinthians 5:17;luke 24:47; john 3:3; Roman 10:12-15)
2. The inward evidence of salvation is direct witness of the Holy spirit (Romans 8:16).the outward evidence to all men is a life of righteousness and true holiness. (Ephesians 4:17; Titus 2:12)

The Water Baptism by Immersion

We believe in the necessity of water baptism by complete bodily immersion in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The ordinance of Baptism by the immersion is commanded in the scripture. All who believe in Christ as Savior and Lord are baptized. Thus they declare to the world that they also have been raised with Him to work in the newness of life.( Mathew 28:19; Mark 16:16;Acts10:47; Romans 6:4; Mathew 3:6)

Holy Communion

We believe in partaking in the table of the Lord, commonly called the Holy Communion or the Lord’s Supper for the believers. The Lord’s Supper consists of elements of bread and the fruit of the vine. It is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 11:23-32; Mathew 26:26-28).

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit

We believe in spirit filled life, a life of separation from the world and perfecting the holiness in the fear of  God as a life and service, giving of the gifts and their uses in the work of ministry (Luke 24:49;acts 1:4,8;1 Cor. 12:1-31). The experience is distinct of the salvation of his work (Acts 2:42) , and a more active love for Christ ,His word and for the lost.(Mark 16:20)

Operation of the gift of the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the operation of the gift of the Holy Spirit  ( 1 Corinthians 12:12-14;Romans12:6-8; Ephesians 4:11) as manifested in the early church.

The healing of the body by divine power.

We believe in the healing of the body by divine power or divine healing in its varied aspects as practical in the church and also by medical care ( 1 Corinthians 12:9; 1 Timothy 5:23;james 5:14).

Reality and personal of the devil

We believe in reality and personality of the devil and eternal judgments in the lake of fire for the devils and his angels (Mathew 25:41; revelation 20:14,15).

The Church (Body of Christ)

We believe that there is one true universal church made up of genuine believers. ( Acts 15:22;Mathew 16;18:15-20). The  church is the body of Christ, the  habitation of God through the spirit, with divine appointments of the fulfillment of her great commission. Each  believer, born of the spirit is an integral part of the general assembly and church of the first born, which are written in heaven ( Ephesians 1:22; 23; 2:22;HEBREW 12;23).

Sanctification

We believe in sanctification as an act of separation from that which is evil and sinful dedicating our self to God. (Romans 12:1; Thessalonians 5;23; Hebrew 12:14). The scripture teach a life of holiness without which no man will see the Lord,(Hebrews 12:14) by the power of the Holy Spirit we are able to obey the command;” Be ye holy for I am Holy:(1 peter 1:15-16).

Sanctification is realized in the believers by recognizing his identification with Christian his death and resurrection, and by faith, looking daily upon the fact of that union and by offering, every facility continually to the dominion of the Holy Spirit ( Romans 6:11,13:8; 8:1,2,13; galatians2:20; philipians2:12,13; 1 peter 1:5).

The blessed hope

We  believe in the resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the eminent and blessed hope of the church.(1 Thessalonians 4:16,17; Romans 8:23; Titus 2:13: 1 Cor. 15:51,52)

Sanctity of marriage

We believe in holy matrimony as originally instituted by God and stated in scripture and it must be held in sanctity it deserves. It must be between man and woman, the word of God is against marriage between same sex. Homosexuality and Lesbianism are not accepted in this Ministry/Church and they can never be our Ministry/Church members whatsoever. (Genesis2:18-25, Mathew 19:3-9; Hebrew 13:1-4;1 Corinthians 7:1,39; Ephesians 5:22-31;Leviticus 18:22; 1 Corinthians 6:9; 1 timothy 1:10; Jude 7).

The millennial reign of Christ

The second coming of Christ includes the rapture of the saints, followed by visible return of Christ with his saints to reign on the earth for thousand years (Zechariah 14:5; Mathew 24:27,30; Jude 14; revelation 1:7;19:11-14;20:1-6). This millennial reign will bring the salvation of nation of Israel ( Ezekiel 37:21-22; Zephaniah 3:19,20; Romans 11:26,27). And the establishment of universal peace (Isaiah 11:6-9; psalms 72:2-8; micah4:3,4).

God ordains a Government

We believe that God ordains Government, and the power that are ordained as ministers of God to us for good ( Romans 13:1-7; 1 timothy 1-2).

The final judgments

We believe that there will be a final judgment in which the wicked will be raised and judged according to their works .whosoever found written in book of life, “together with the devil and his angels, the beast and the false prophet, will be consigned to the everlasting punishment in the lake which burns with fire and the brimstone, which is the second death:( Mathew 25:46, mark 9:43-48; revelation 19:20;20:11-15,21:8).

The new Heaven and the new Earth

“We, according to his promises, look for new heaven and new earth, the home of righteousness”( 2 peter 3:3,13;Revelation 21:22).

The great Commission

We believe in the great commission as given by our Lord and Master Jesus Christ in (Mathew 28:16-20; mark 16: 15-20; acts 1:8, Luke 24:45-49; john 20:21). This is the primary task of everyone
