OUR TENETS OF FAITH
1. WE BELIEVE, LIVE AND TEACH THE WHOLE COUNSEL OF GOD YAHWEH AS REVEALED IN THE HOLY BIBLE, OUR TENETS OF FAITH ARE HEREUNDER BRIEFLY STATED AS FOLLOWS;
2. WE BELIEVE IN THE TRINITY OF GOD YAHWEH. THAT THE HOLY BIBLE- 39 BOOKS OF OLD TESTAMENT AND 27 BOOKS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, IS THE ONLY WORD OF GOD AND IS THE SOLE BASIS FOR OUR FAITH, LIFE,CONDUCT AND ULTIMATE HOPE.
THAT TOTAL DEPRAVITY ,GUILT AND SINFULNESS OF ALL MEN SINCE THE FALL SUBJECTED MEN UNDER DIVINE JUDGEMENT AND CONSCIOUS ETERNAL DESTRUCTION OF THE INFERNAL LAKE OF FIRE. HENCE HE NEEDS A MESSIAH. THAT CHRISTIANITY IS AN EXCLUSIVISTIC RELIGION; SALVATION IS ONLY POSSIBLE BY TOTAL FAITH IN THE ATONING BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST -THE ONLY MESSIAH OF HUMAN RACE; THAT THIS SALVATION IS BY FAITH ALONE IN CHRIST ALONE, THROUGH THE BIBLE ALONE. THAT REPENTANCE AND RESTITUTION IS NECESSARY AND IS REQUIRED BY GOD OF EVERY MAN BEFORE SALVATION IS EFFECTED. THE CHURCH`S DUTY IS TO PREACH REPENTANCE AND FORGIVENESS OF SINS IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST TO ALL THE WORLD AND EVERYONE WHO TRUELY BELIEVE AND IS BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED. THAT THE THEOLOGY OF THE CHOSEN RACE IS EVIDENT IN THE BIBLE AND IS THE LOCUS FOR THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN EXCLUSIVISTIC SOTERIOLOGY SUMMED UP IN THE ONE WORD OF JESUS ``FOR SALVATION IS OF THE JEWS''- GOD HAS CHOSEN TO MANIFEST HIS LOVE, HIS PERFECT AND RIGHTEOUS WILL TOGETHER WITH HIS MANIFOLD BLESSINGS TO MANKING BY CHOOSING ABRAHAM AND THE ANCIENT HEBREW PEOPLE - THEIR LAND, THEIR SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE, THEIR BIBLICAL CULTURE; THEIR BIBLE, THEIR YAHWEIC RELIGION AND THE JEWISH MESSIAH AS HIS EARTHLY SOURCE. THEREFORE THE JEWS , WHETHER SAVED OR NOT, ARE THE APPLES OF GOD`S EYES. AND THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST HAVE NOT REPLACED ISRAEL IN GOD`S PROPHETIC ECCLESIO-SOTERIOLOGICAL ESCHATOLOGY, INSTEAD, THE CHURCH WAS ENGRAFTED INTO DIVINE COMMON -WEALTH OF ISRAEL. WE REJECT REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY AS CONTRA-BIBLICAL, ARBITRAL , HERECTICAL AND AN INJUSTICE TO THE BIBLICAL DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY. WE BELIEVE THAT TRUE AND TOTAL FAITH IN CHRIST ALONE BRINGS SALVATION, WORK OF RIGHTEOUSNESS , OBEDIENCE AND PERSEVERANCE IN THE WORD OF FAITH HELPS THE CONVERTED BELIEVER TO KEEP AND MAINTAIN HIS SALVATION. THUS WE ARE ADMONISHED TO WORK OUT OUR SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLE AND FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MEN AND HOLINESS WITHOUT WHICH NO EYES SHALL SEE THE LORD. WE BELIEVE IN CHRISTIAN HUMILITY AND MODESTY LIFE STYLE IN ALL THINGS. WE BELIEVE THAT THE SPIRIT AND SOUL OF MAN SURVIVES DEATH ; THAT THERE IS A LITERAL HELL FOR THE CONSCIOUS SOUL AND SPIRIT OF THE DEAD SINNERS AND A LITERAL PARADISE OF HAPPINESS IN HEAVEN FOR THE CONSCIOUS SPIRIT AND SOUL OF A TRUELY SAVED BELIEVER WHOSE BODY IS ASLEEP IN THE DUST OF THE EARTH;
WE BELIEVE IN THE COMING JUDGEMENTS OF GOD,WHEREINAFTER , THE DEAD IN HELL WILL BE UNITED WITH THEIR BODIES AND BE CAST ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE FOR ETERNITY UNDYING.THE WORD- PRACTISING TRUE BELIEVERS WILL NOT BE JUDGED- FOR GOD HAVE JUDGED THE BELIEVERS SINS ON THE CROSS. THEREFORE, BELIEVERS WHO HAVE JUDGED THEMSELVES BY TOTAL REPENTANCE AND TURNING AWAY FROM LIFE OF SIN WILL NO LONGER BE JUDGED BY GOD. AT RAPTURE, THE BELIEVERS` SPIRITS AND SOULS WILL UNITE WITH THEIR BODIES AND BE TRANSMIGRATED TO THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD. WE BELIEVE THAT THE COMING LITERAL MILLENIAL KINGDOM OF CHRIST ON EARTH IS FULLFILMENT OF THE COMING SABBATH DAY AS WELL AS THE CULMINATION OF THE DAVIDIC COVENANT; HENCE THE SABBATH REST IS STILL YET TO COME . HENCE BELIEVERS IN CHRIST JESUS NEED NOT PRACTISE THE SABBATH DAY OBSERVANCE FOR IT IS A SIGN OF THINGS STILL TO COME.THOSE WHO TRUELY BELIEVE AND TRUST CHRIST JESUS, AS THEIR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR ,HAVE SPIRITUALLY ENTERED THAT SHABBAT REST. WE BELIEVE IN THE SANCTITY OF LIFE; ONLY GOD HAS THE RIGHTS AND THE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH. MURDER, EUTHANASIA, SU***DE AND ABORTION ARE HEINOUS SINS WE MUST AVOID .WE REJECT ABORTION RIGHTS, EXCEPT MEDICALLY, IN A LICENSED PHYSICIAN `S APPROVED SITUATION ,WHERE IT IS PRODIAGNOSED THAT THE LIFE OF THE MOTHER IS IN DANGER. WE BELIEVE MARRIAGE SHOULD BE BETWEEN TWO BELIEVERS AND IS FOR MATURE MAN AND A MATURE WOMAN ONLY. WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF PRAYER, THE REALITY SATAN, DEMONS , HIS FALLEN ANGELS AND THE ONGOING SPIRITUAL WARFARE BETWEEN THE GOOD AND EVIL. WE ADMONISH THE BELIEVERS TO PUT ON THE FULL ARMORS OF GOD. THE SCRIPTURES PROMISES VICTORY TO THE CHURCH AND TOTAL DEFEAT OF SATAN`S ARMY IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS. WE BELIEVE AND PRACTICE IMMERSION METHOD OF WATER BAPTISM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLYGHOST AS THE ONLY BIBLICAL AUTHENTIC BAPTISM.INFANT BAPTISM AND BAPTIZING OF THE UNREGENERATED, UNREPENTED PERSONS AND THE DEAD ARE NOT ONLY ABIBLICAL BUT ALSO CONTRA-BIBLICAL AS WELL. BAPTISM IS SYMBOLIC OF BELIEVER`S REGENERATION ENACTED PHYSICALLY. IT DOES NOT BRING SALVATION TO PARTICIPANTS BUT NECESSARY FOR TO FULFILL ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS. WE BELIEVE AND PRACTICE THE SYMBOLIC LORD`S SUPER AS THE LORD HIMSELF COMMANDED , WITH FRUIT OF THE VINES AND THE UNLEAVENED BREAD TO REMEMBER THE LORD`S DEATH AND THE SO GREAT SALVATION HE`S WROUGHT FOR US TILL HE COME. WE BELIEVE AND EXPERIENCE IN OUR LOCAL CHURCH, THE GIFTS OF HOLY SPIRIT,HEALING OF THE BODY, MIRACLES, SIGNS AND WONDERS, PROPHECY ; DIVINE REVELATION AND GUIDANCE FROM THE LORD HAVE NEVER CEASED-IT IS STILL IN EFFECT. THE LORD HEALS WHOEVER HE WANTS BY HIS OWN DIVINE PREROGATIVE. GOD INSTITUTED MEDICAL SCIENCES AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF HIS HEALING PROCESS. BELIEVERS DEMONSTRATES FAITH BY GOING TO HOSPITAL WHEN SICK IN ADDITION TO PRAYER. FAITH APART FROM WORK IS DEAD.
