ABOUT

Bible

​

This ministry believes that the Bible in its original writings - consisting of 66 books and divided by the Old and New Testament - is God’s inspired (2 Ti 3:16; 2 Pe 1:20-21), inerrant (Jhn 17:17; 1 Th 2:13; 1 Co 2:13; Heb 6:18), and infallible (Jhn 17:17; Psa 19:7) Word for mankind. It has by God’s providence been kept pure in all ages (Mat 24:35; Isa 40:8). It is the final authority for all matters of faith and practice (2 Ti 3:16).

​

God

​

This ministry believe God is the Creator of all (Gen 1 & 2; Col 1:16; Jhn 1:3). He is a spirit (Jhn 4:24) and is three - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - yet one God (Gen 1:26; Deu 6:4; Mat 28:19; 2 Co 13:14). He - being three in one - is co-eternal in being, co-identical in nature, coequal in power and glory, and has the same attributes and perfections (Deu 6:4; Psa 90:2; Mat 28:19; Jhn 14:10, 26; 2 Co 13:14; 1 Pe 1:2). He is also equally holy, loving, and just (Deu 32:4; 1 Pe 1:16; 1 Jhn 4:8). There is no other god besides Him (Isa 45:4).

​

Jesus Christ ​

​

This ministry believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God (Mar 1:1) - being one of the Trinity (Mat 28:19; Jhn 1; 2 Co 13:14). For the salvation of man, He became flesh while continuing to be God (Jhn 1:1, 3, 14, 18, 29; Phl 2:5-11; 1 Ti 3:16)- Being born of the virgin Mary and conceived by the Holy Ghost (Isa 7:14; Mat 1:25; Luk 1:26-35). He lived a sinless life, at the end of which He physically died and rose again as God’s acceptable payment for sin (Rom 5:6-15; 2 Co 5:21). After His death and resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven where He now sits at God’s right hand being our Great High Priest (Rom. 8:34; Heb 7:25, 26; 9:24-28; 1 Jhn 2:1-2). This ministry believes that He will one day return to earth again to rule and reign as King for 1,000 years before the Great White Throne Judgment (Act 1:9-11; Rev 20).

​

Holy Spirit ​

​

This ministry believes that the Holy Ghost is one of the Trinity - co-equal with the Father and Son of God (Mat 28:19; Act 5:3-4; 2 Co 13:14). Today He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ (Jhn 16:7-13). He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation (Jhn 14:16-17; 1 Co 2:12; 3:16). He is the Comforter and guides all men into all Truth (Jhn 16:7-13). This ministry believes as Christians we are to live under His guidance daily (Gal 5:16, 18, 25; Eph 5:18).

 

This ministry believes that the Holy Spirit administers spiritual gifts to believers. This ministry believes he is sovereign in bestowing of all His gifts for the perfecting of the saints today (1 Co 12:4-11; Eph 4:7-12).

​

Mankind​

​

This ministry believes God made mankind in His image and likeness (Gen 1:26-31). He first made man - Adam; and then woman - Eve (Gen 2:7-25). From these two people came the entire human race. Being created sinless but with a free will, mankind chose to disobey God - alienated themselves from Him (Gen 2, 3; Isa 59:1, 2). Adam’s sin caused all mankind to inherit a sinful nature (Rom 5:12). Mankind is totally depraved and, of themselves, utterly unable to remedy their lost condition (Isa 53:6; Rom 3:23; Eph 2:1-3).

​

Sin & Salvation​

​

This ministry believes that all human beings are born sinners due to the disobedience of our common ancestor, Adam (Psa 51:5; 58:3; Isa 53:6; Rom 5:12; Eph 2:3). This ministry believes that the payment for sin is death (Rom 6:23). Jesus’ physical death on the cross is the only acceptable payment for sin according to God (Jhn 14:6; 1 Co 15:1-4; 2 Co 5:21; Eph 2:8, 9; 1 Jhn 2:1, 2).

 

This ministry believes that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins (Eph 1:7; 2:8-9; 1 Pe 1:18-19). Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of a person’s good works or any human efforts (Eph 2:8-9; Gal 2:16; Tit 3:5).

​

This ministry believes that to be saved one must be born again (Jhn 1:12-13; 3:3). This new birth is a work of God's grace whereby believers become new creatures in Christ Jesus (Tit 2:11; 2 Co 5:17). It is a change of heart wrought by the Holy Spirit through conviction of sin, to which the sinner responds in repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Jhn 16:8; Act 3:19; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:8-9; Rom 10:8-11).

​

Eternal Security 

​

This ministry believes because God gives mankind eternal life at salvation and the Holy Spirit as our seal, those truly saved cannot lose their salvation (Jhn 3:16; Rom 6:23; 2 Co 1:22; 5:1-5; Eph 1:13, 14; 4:30). Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by any human effort (Eph 2:8, 9). God, being one who cannot lie, secures our salvation as He promises in His Word (Jhn 3:16; Jhn 10:29; Rom 10:9, 13; Tit 1:2).

​

End Time​

​

This ministry believes in the Pre-Tribulational Rapture of all believers, followed by a seven-year tribulation (Dan 9; 1 Co 15:51-58; 1 Th 4:13-18; 5:9; Rev 3:10). This ministry believes in the Pre-Millennial Return of Christ to the earth and His literal rule of one-thousand years (Rev 19-20). Following this one-thousand-year reign will be the Great White Throne Judgment and the establishment of the new heaven and new earth (Rev 20-22).

​

Eternity

​

This ministry believes people were created by God to live forever (Gen 2). Due to mankind’s disobedience, every human being will exist eternally separated from God by sin or eternally with God through the salvation of Jesus Christ (Jhn 3:16, 36; 5:28-29; Rom 6:23).

 

This ministry believes the souls of those not saved remain, after death, in conscious punishment and torment until the second resurrection, when with soul and body reunited, they will appear at the Great White Throne Judgement, and will be cast into the literal Lake of Fire, not to be annihilated, but to suffer everlasting conscious punishment and torment. (Mat 25:41-46; Mar 9:43-48; Luk 16:19-26; 2 Th 1:7-9; Jde 6-7; Rev 20:11-15).
