THE BIBLE The Bible to be the only inspired, infallible Word of God. 2 Peter 1:21, 2 Timothy 3:16-17
GOD We believe in one God. The Godhead consists of the God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, one in three and three in one - triune. Isaiah 43:10, Matthew 3:16-17, 2 Corinthians 13:14, John 16:13-15, John 20:21-22
JESUS We believe in the sinless Deity of Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus Christ over all things in heaven and on earth and under the earth. John 1:1-14, Hebrews 4:15, Matthew 1:25, Colossians 1:22, Acts 4:10, 1 Peter 3:22, Philippians 2:9-10

SALVATION We believe in salvation through the redeeming blood of Jesus Christ, and by repentance toward God, through faith in Jesus Christ as the son of God who came to earth in the form of man and through the confession of His Lordship. If a person rejects Christ and dies in their sins, they will face eternal condemnation. John 3:16-20, Romans 10:9-10, 13, Hebrews 9:22, Matthew 25:31-46, Mark 3:29

Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38, Romans 6:1-6, Colossians 2:11-13
BAPTISM & GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues, in the gifts of the Spirit, and the fruit of the Spirit. Acts 2:1-4, 2:38, 10:46, 19:6, 1 Corinthians 12:4-11, Romans 12:6-8, Galatians 5:22-23

MARRIAGE BETWEEN ONE MAN & ONE WOMAN We believe in the God-ordained covenant of marriage between one man, one woman and the relationship with God Himself. Marriage reflects Christ’s relationship with His bride the Church. Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6, 1 Corinthians 7:1-7, Ephesians 5:22-33
THE RETURN OF CHRIST IN THE CLOUDS & THE RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS & CHRIST SECOND COMING TO EARTH We believe in the return of Christ in the clouds (the rapture) & the resurrection of the saints (both dead and alive in Christ) in the restoration to the church, of all that the prophets have spoken, and the subsequent visual and bodily 2nd return of Jesus Christ to establish His kingdom on earth in the New Jerusalem. Daniel 12:1-2, Matthew 24:30-31, Mark 13:24-27, & 32-37, Luke 17:34-37, John 14:2-3, 1 Corinthians 15:51-53, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Revelation 7:9-17, Revelation 19:11-21, Revelation 20:1-15, 21:1-27
WE ARE CALLED & ANOINTED We are called and anointed to pray, declare & decree the Word of God for people’s lives & bring deliverance, freedom and liberty to people throughout the world, in Jesus name! Our heart is to be a blessing to others, as we demonstrate the love of God through Christ-like servant leadership.
Isaiah 61:1-4 ~ NKJV ~ 61 “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, Because the Lord has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn, 3 To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” 4 And they shall rebuild the old ruins, They shall raise up the former desolations, And they shall repair the ruined cities, The desolations of many generations.
Mark 16:15-18 ~ NKJV ~ 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they[a] will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
