1. |
We believe in the Bible, that both of the old and
New Testaments are inspired by God and without error in the original writings
(2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
2. |
We believe in one God eternally existing in three
equal Persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit
(Matthew 3:13-17; Matthew 28:18-19;
2 Corinthians 13-14). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
3. |
We believe that God the Father is the Creator
and the Supreme Ruler of the heaven and earth (Genesis1:1;
Daniel 4:25, 32; Colossians 1:16). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
4. |
We believe that God the Son became flesh in the
person of Jesus Christ, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of
the Virgin Mary. Jesus is true God and true man
at the same time (Galatians 4:4;
Philippians 2:6-8). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
5. |
We believe that Jesus Christ died for the sins
of the whole human race on the cross as substitutionary sacrifice and that He physically,
and bodily rose from the grave after three days
according to the Scriptures
(Romans 5:8; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; 1 Timothy 2:6;
1 John 2:2). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
6. |
We believe in the personal, bodily and visible
return of Jesus Christ. This is our blessed hope.
When Christ comes again,
the church will be raptured. Then there shall be
seven years of Great Tribulation, after
which Christ shall set foot on earth to establish
the Millennial Kingdom (Daniel 9:27; Matthew 24:15-25:46;
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 6:1-19-21; Revelation
20:1-3). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
7. |
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a person and
that He is God possessing all the divine attributes.
He indwells, baptizes and
seals all believers at the moment of their conversion
and fills them in response to
confession of sin and yieldedness (John 14:16; Romans
8:26-38; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 1:13-14; Ephesians 5:18). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
8. |
We believe that whoever by faith receives Jesus
Christ as his or her Savior becomes a child of God. This salvation is by grace
through faith and not the result of any human effort
or merit (John 1:12; Romans
3:22, 24-25; Ephesians 2:8-9). |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
9. |
We believe that all true believers are kept eternally
secure by the power of God through the new birth, the indwelling and
sealing of the Holy Spirit, and the intercession
of Christ (John 10:28-29; Romans 8:29-30;Ephesians
1;13-14; Hebrews 7:25). |
