Faith Statement
God Head
We believe in One God, eternally existent in three persons called Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe that this triune God is the creator and sustainer and ruler of the whole Universe.
Sin
We believe that there is no remission of sins without the shedding of sinless and holy blood according to Hebrews 9:22. And that this divine requirement was fulfilled by the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross.
Blood of Christ
We believe in the efficacy of the Blood of Jesus Christ to atone for the sins of the whole world. We believe that a person has to be born again, regenerated by the Holy Spirit and by the Word of the God in order to be saved from eternal hell.
About Holy Spirit
We believe that the anointing of the Holy Spirit is different from being regenerated by Holy Spirit. We believe that the Holy Spirit comes into the heart of the believer at the time of rebirth and He comes upon the believer at a later stage to give him power for a victorious and fruitful Christian life.
The Bible
We believe that the 66 books of the Protestant Bible are canonical and that they are the inspired word of God.
Baptism
We believe that water baptism is essential for salvation unless the believing person is incapable of being baptized. We believe that immersing the believer totally in the waters, after he repents from his sinful life, intelligently believes in the Gospel and receives the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal saviour, is baptism. We believe that an infant baptism and sprinkling is no baptism at all.
Communion
We believe in the great commission entrusted to the Church as recorded in Mark 16:16 and Matt 25:18, 19 which involves preaching the Gospel, baptizing the believers and indoctrinating them.
Great Commission
We believe in the great commission entrusted to the Church as recorded in Mark 16:16 and Matt 25:18, 19 which involves preaching the Gospel, baptizing the believers and indoctrinating them.
Gifts of the Holy Spirit
We believe in the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit which are still operating in the Church today. We believe that all the gifts of the Holy Spirit shall continue to operate in the body of the Christ until the day of the rapture.
Second Coming
We believe in the second coming of our Lord. We believe that the Lord will return to the mid air and receive His bride, the Church unto Himself and take her to the Father’s house.
Resurrections
We believe in two universal general resurrections. The first being the resurrection of the just and the second being the resurrection of the unjust and the unsaved. We believe that the resurrection occurring at the sounding of the last trumpet as mentioned in I Corinthians 15:52 is the first resurrection which is the resurrection of the saved. .
Because all Christian martyrs killed under the rule of antichrist will be resurrected in the first resurrection according to Revelations 20:4& 5. We believe that the Church will be on earth during the time of antichrist’s rule.
Rapture
Because of this observation we believe that the rapture of the Church will be in the middle of the 70th week of Daniel, amid the great tribulation. We believe that there will be no rapture until the completion of the first 3½ years of the great tribulation.
Offices of the Church
We believe that the Apostles, prophets, pastors, evangelists and teachers are the special gifts of God for His Church and that these four or five offices shall continue to operate in the body of Christ till the Lord’s return.
