We believe that the Bible (Scripture), which
is composed of 66 canonical books,
is perfect and completely
inspired by God. We believe that it
reveals God and His plan for salvation of
mankind. We recognize the Bible as the foundation of our
faith.
|
|
We believe that there is only one God who is
Creator of all that exists (visible and invisible) and
He is revealed in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
|
|
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of
God, Who is equal with God. We believe that He was born of a virgin, lived a perfect and
sinless life, was crucified to pay the penalty for our sins, but after
three days
He rose again and ascended to heaven.Now he sits on the right of
the Father and
he makes intercession for us
, in prayer.
|
|
We believe that all people are sinful, and
therefore are under God's condemnation and
anger.
As an result ofsin,
came death and physical and spiritual separation from
God.
|
|
We believe that every man
and woman can be saved
from God's
punishment,
be purged of
their sins and restore
their fellowship with God, if
they repent of their sins and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and
Savior.
|
|
We believe in holiness and righteousness of
the believer. The righteousness of the believer is given as God's grace
because of the sacrifice of Christ
, which is received by faith alone
, and is manifested by the fruit of the Spirit and the holy
life.
|
|
We believe that
everyone who believed in Jesus Christ should be baptized in water, and
take part in the Lord's table, Communion.
|
|
We believe in one Church of Christ, which is
composed of all those who belong to Jesus Christ and gather together to
celebrate his name.
|
|
We believe in the Holy Spirit and spiritual
gifts that He gives to
the church, even today.
Through these gifts, the
power and wisdom of God
is
manifest
ed.
|
|
We believe that the main mission of the Church
is to preach the gospel (good news) in the whole world,
to every
person and every nation, for the salvation of everyone who will repent
and believe in Christ.
|
|
We believe that Jesus will return soon, to judge the world and
to establish His Kingdom, to reign in power an glory.
|
|
We believe in the resurrection of the
dead,
some-
for eternal torment in Hell, and others-for eternal life in
heaven
, where there will
be no
sickness, sorrow and death.
