What
we believe |
1.The Holy Bible:
This church accepts the sacred words of the 66 books of the Bible as the
inspired revelation of God, as the sheet anchor of the Faith and Eternal
Hope, and as the basic creed of the church and the only standard of life
for the believer.
2.God: That the Eternal True and Holy Trinity is one God existing
in three personalities Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
3.Man : That the creation of man was in the likeness of God, that
he had a great Fall when He transgressed God’s commandment and that only
Christ, the Son of God can restore the Fallen Man to his pristine glory.
4.Repentance That the fallen man should approach God with true
repentance for sins and faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ
5.Justification: That the man is justified by faith and that
guilt is pardoned by the Blood of Christ.
6.Regeneration: That the man is born of God through, the Holy
Spirit and the Word of God.
7.Water Baptism: In order to become one in Christ, a believer
should be baptized in the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy
spirit by immersion in water and thus become part-takers of the burial
and resurrection of Christ.
8.Separation: That a believer should be separated from sin,
sinners, false doctrines and all kinds of worship contrary to the Holy
Bible.
9.Lord’s Supper: That the Lord’s supper is to be observed
regularly till the ‘return of Jesus Christ’ to commemorate the death of
Christ.
10.Baptism in the Holy Spirit: That believer should be filled
with the Holy Spirit. That the initial sign of speaking in tongues
follows the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and that this speaking in tongues
though the same in essence is different in its use and operation from
that of the gift of tongues.
11.Divine Healing: Since temporal healing is included in the
Sacrifice on the Cross by Christ for atonement of sins; a believer
should take it as a right and privilege to get bodily healing by prayer
and faith.
12.Sanctification: That the believer is sanctified by the Blood
of Jesus, by the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit.
13.The Church: That the church is the congregation of believers,
its faith and experience should confirm to and stand steadfast in the
teachings of the apostles in the New Testament.
14.The Ministry: That the ministers of the church, such as
Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists and Deacons, must be
those who are called by the Holy Spirit, bestowed with gifts according
to their different calling.
15.Ordination: For those who are specially set apart for ministry
of the church, ordination, should be by the laying on of hands as in the
New Testament.
16.Evangelisation: Evangelisation is the supreme duty and
privilege of the church.
17.Coming of Christ: Jesus is coming soon in’ the air and that
the Bride will be caught up when Jesus comes.
18.Great Tribulation: That there is to be a great tribulation on
the earth when Anti-Christ will be in his power soon after the coming of
Christ in the air, and the Rapture of the Bride.
19.The Millennium: That at the end of the tribulation, Jesus will
come to earth in all His glory with His saints and establish His own
Kingdom of Righteousness for thousand years.
20.The Great Judgment: That after the Millennium, Satan and his
hosts will be cast for ever in to the lake of fire and there will be
judgment before the Great White Throne for all the wicked who also will
meet the same punishment.
21.New Heaven and New Earth: That at the time of the Great
Judgment, this present earth and heaven shall be burned up with fire
and, a New Heaven and a New Earth shall appear.
