Biblical
Inerrancy
|
That the Bible is the true infallible Word of God, which cleanses our souls. We believe that it was God-breath and not given by man’s private interpretation. We Believe that holy men wrote as they were move (carried along) by the Holy Ghost. It holds the words of eternal life and the keys of the Kingdom of God. The Bible shows us God’s principles and standards for living; and it is the food that sustains us in all circumstances (John 1:14; 2 Timothy 3: 16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; 1 John 2:5-6).

Trinity
|
In one God eternally existing in three persons ~ who is eternal in His existence, Triune in His manifestation, being the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost AND that He is Sovereign and Absolute in His authority. God is the only Supreme Being with no gods created before or after Him (Isaiah 44:6,8; 44:5; Matthew 3:17; 28:19; Luke 10:35; Gen 1:26-27).

Jesus

That Jesus Christ is the only Begotten Son of The Father, conceived of The Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary; that Jesus suffered, was crucified, died, was buried, and rose from the dead; that He ascended to Heaven and is today at the right hand of The Father as The Intercessor. We believe that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Him ( John 1:1-3,14; 1 Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 1:5-13; John 3:36; John 3:31-32; John 14:6).

Divine Healing

It is by the stripes of Jesus that we are healed, delivered and made whole. We have authority over sickness, disease, demons, curses, and every circumstance in life (Luke 10:19; 2 Corinthians 10:4-5; 1 Peter 2:24).
