Statement of Faith
The Bible
The Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are the inspired Word of God without error in the original writings, and the complete revelation of His will through the Lord Jesus Christ for the salvation of men, and the divine and final authority for the believer's faith and life.
God (Whom we intimately and affectionately call Daddy)
There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, eternally existing and revealed to us as: The Father (YeHoVaH), manifested to us as the Word which became flesh as The Son Jesus Christ (YeHoVaH-Yasha of Nazareth), and given to us as The Holy Spirit (Rhema).
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the fullness of the Divine Being of God who was manifested in the likeness of the sinful flesh of man, which was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of Mary while she was still a virgin. He died on the cross, the complete and final judgment for our disease, sickness, weakness and death and the sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest, King and Advocate.
The Holy Spirit
God's Holy Spirit (YeHoVaH), is also expressed as His Word (Rhema) and glorifies the Lord Jesus Christ and during this age, convicts unrighteous men of sin, regenerates believers and convinces believers of perfect imputed righteousness, and indwells, guides, instructs, and empowers believers for righteous living and service.
Man
Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only through belief in Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.
Salvation
The crucified body and shed blood of Jesus Christ and His bodily resurrection provide the only ground for justification and salvation for all who believe, and only those who are born again through the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior by faith are actually born of the Holy Spirit and thus become children of God. Salvation is full and complete and the believer is healed in every realm of life: spiritual, emotional, psychological, physical, financial and material. Every need of the believer is abundantly supplied and the desire of every heart which delights in the Lord is met.
The Return of Jesus Christ
The personal, pre-millennial, and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ is our assurance and has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer.
Future Events
There will be a bodily resurrection of all the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious separation from God.
The Church
The true Church is composed of all such persons, who by the sovereign will and actions of God through the finished work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross, are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and are united together in the body of Christ of which He is the head.
Baptism
Water baptism by immersion soon after accepting Christ as personal Savior, is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to a new life.
Communion
The Lord's Supper or Communion is a life-giving, powerful and sacred gift which continually administers the healing, benefits and blessings from the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ to all true believers. It should be enjoyed regularly, even daily.
Communion is not merely a religious ritual nor is it meant to be ceremonial. It is the precious and practical gift of the crucified body of the Lord Jesus to His glorified body, the Church. Every believer is authorized as a disciple, king and priest to serve and partake of the Communion meal as often as desired to proclaim the Lord's death.
The Lord’s Supper is specifically and especially suited for the believer, because we are living spirits residing in physical mortal bodies. Communion is the only meal which can be consumed physically to feed us spiritually.
Communion is also a means by which the life of the Holy Spirit is conveyed to our mortal bodies for healing and deliverance.
Because the bread is the body of Christ which was broken for us in judgment for our sickness, anguish, transgression and iniquity; and the cup is the blood of the New Covenant of grace, forgiveness and eternal perfection resulting from Christ’s finished work, believers must examine themselves in light of proclaiming these truths and as a result find themselves to be well, saved, and whole and to partake of the meal as such.
There is never any reason whatsoever that can justify the believer refusing or being excluded from partaking of the Lord Jesus Christ’s body and blood.
