- THE
BIBLE: We believe in the divine inspiration
and entire trustworthiness of the authority
of the Holy Scriptures, (both old and new testaments),
that the bible is infallible in its declaration,
final in its authority in all matters of faith
and conduct and sufficient in its provision
and comprehensive in its sufficiency.
(II Tim.
3:16, II Peter 1:20-21)
- THE
TRINITY: We believe that the Godhead
eternal exists in three persons, father, son
and Holy Ghost and that these three are one
God.
- THE "CHURCH": We
believe that the "CHURCH" consists
of all persons who have been regenerated by the
Holy Ghost and made new creatures in Christ
- We believe
in the sovereignty of God in creation, revelation,
redemption and final judgment.
- THE
SAVIOUR: We believe in the universal
sinfulness and guilt of all men since the fall
of Adam and Eve, rendering them subject to
God's wrath and condemnation and that it is
only through the vicarious and atoning sacrificial
death (As our substitute and representative),
the precious blood and the risen power of our
Lord Jesus Christ (incarnate son of the living
God), that all who believe can be saved from
the penalty and power of sin. We also believe
that the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on
the cross is both efficient and sufficient
for salvation.
- We
believe in the justification of the sinner by
grace of God through faith alone.
- We
believe in the deity, virgin birth, sinless life,
miracles, vicarious and atoning death and the
bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
form the dead through the power of the Holy Ghost
and his ascension to the right hand of God the
Father.
- THE
BAPTIZER: We believe that our Lord
Jesus Christ is the Baptizer in the Holy Ghost
and that this baptism with the outward
evidence of tongues speaking is promised to
every believer.
(Acts 2:38-42, MARK 16:15)
- We
believe in the presence and sanctifying power
of the Holy Ghost in the work of regeneration
as well as the indwelling and work of the Holy
Ghost in the believer, which enables the believer
to live a holy life.
- We
believe in the one Holy universal church, which
is the body of Christ and to which all true believers
belong.
- We believe
in the unity of all believers in the Lord Jesus
Christ without respect of power and without discrimination
on account of race, color, nation, social position
or otherwise.
- THE
HEALER: We believe that our Lord Jesus
Christ is the Healer of the Body and that all
who walk in obedience to his will can claim
divine healing.
- THE
FRUIT: We believe that every believer
in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior should
produce the nine fold fruit of His Spirit:
Love, joy, peace, Long suffering, Gentleness,
Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance. (Gal.
5:22)
- THE
GIFTS: We believe that the "CHURCH" should
claim and manifest the nine gifts of the Holy
Ghost; word of wisdom; word of knowledge; faith,
gifts of healing, gifts of discerning of spirits,
diversities of tongues and interpretation of
tongues.
- MINISTRY: We
believe that God had given some Apostles, Prophets,
Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers for the perfecting
of the saints for the work of the ministry for
the edifying of the body of Christ.
- THE
ORDINANCES: We believe in the following
:(I) partaking of bread and wine in memory
of our Lord's death .The Ordinance
of the Lord's Supper shall be observed by all
believers and in this ordinance the bread and
the fruit of the vine shall be symbolic of
the body and blood of our Lord and shall never
be adored or worshipped, (II) Baptism
by immersion for believers in the name of the
Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
- We believe
in the laying on of hands, baptism with
the Holy Ghost with outward evidence of tongues
speaking and the anointing of the sick with oil.
- TITHES
AND OFFERINGS: We believe in tithing
and the giving of free will offering towards
carrying out the aims and objectives of the
Church.. We believe that God blesses a cheerful
giver. (Mal. 3:10, Heb7:l-4,Luke. 6:38, Acts
20:35)
- DELIVERANCE: We
believe that in addition to salvation a person
who is tormented by an evil spirit e.g. of infirmity,
curse, depression, failure can have such a yoke
destroyed and broken through the anointing of
the Holy Ghost.
(Isaiah 10:27, Lk.4:18-19).
- MARRIAGE: We
believe that marriage is an institution established
by God and that any believer may marry irrespective
of his or her calling and gifts in the church
provided it is so appointed them by God. Fornication,
Adultery, Polygamy and Divorce are
unacceptable to God and the
Church. Marriages shall be between a man and
a woman. Marriages between Gays and
Lesbians are unacceptable to
God and the chuirch.We believe and affirm that
the Holy Scriptures (both old and new testaments)
are the final authority in all matters of faith
and conduct.
- NEXT
LIFE: We believe in the personal and
pre-millennial return of our Lord Jesus Christ
to receive unto himself the Church and afterwards
to set up his throne as king. We believe in
the resurrection of both the saved (Resurrection
of life) and the unsaved (Resurrection of Damnation)
John 5:28-29, Dan. 12:2, Rom. 2:7. We believe
in the eternal conscious bliss of all true believers
in Christ and so the eternal conscious punishment
of all Christ rejecters.
