Statement of Faith

 
   
 
Salvation is by Grace, through the Blood of Jesus Christ.

The believer who has given his life to Christ is, at that time, born into the universal Body of Christ, and is, at that time, given the Holy Spirit.

The gifts to the Body are in operation today, and are exercised as God wills. No gift is to be sought, except love. The gifts are brought out in the function of the Body as the believers embrace the cross, and are filled with the Word of God. This results in much prayer, discernment, and the laying down of lives for one another. In this way only is the Holy Spirit free to operate the Body of Christ in Biblical order.

Though we teach that the rapture will occur before the tribulation, (the tribulation occurring before the millennium) and espouse rightly dividing the Word of Truth, we see in the Word that these things should not interrupt love between brothers.

When one is born into God's family, one cannot be unborn There are those cases that we do not understand, but we leave them to the Lord.

Lastly, the believer must memorize God's Word, must be trained to be faithful in prayer, and must be trained by the Holy Spirit to lead others to Christ. If one does not have an acute awareness that the lost are doomed, he must be discipled, loved and taught to intimately know Jesus Christ so that he can be used by the Lord, and learn to have his home in heaven and to live as an alien in this life.
