(II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21; Hebrews 1:1-3) I believe that there is one God Who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:18-19; II Corinthians 13:14; Acts 5:3) I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and was both man and God. (Luke 1:26-28; John 14:6-11; Hebrews 1:1-8) I believe that the Bible teaches that all have sinned and are sinners separated from God by their sin. (Romans 3:10-26; I Thessalonians 1:7-9) I believe in personal salvation only through faith in Christ's death on our behalf. (Romans 3:24-25; I Corinthians 15:1-10; I John 2:1-2) I believe that Christ bodily rose from the dead and now reigns in heaven, interceding for us. (I Corinthians 15:1-24; Hebrews 10:12-22) I believe that Christ will physically return again, at any moment, to receive His own into heaven. (Hebrews 9:28; Acts 1:8-12; I Thessalonians 4:13-18) I believe the Bible teaches that those who trust Christ for personal salvation have eternal life in heaven, and those who reject Christ are eternally lost. (Matthew 25:46; Revelation 20:4-6; John 3:36) I believe that the Bible commands us to take the gospel of Jesus Christ to every person in every nation. (Mark 16:15; Luke 24:46-48; Acts 1:8) I believe that the Church is the Body of Christ composed of all who acknowledge Christ as God and Savior, and who live under His Lordship in all parts of the world. (Matthew 16:18; Romans 12:4-5; Ephesians 5:24-27) Perspective on the Ministry of the Holy SpiritThe Holy Spirit's ministry, with regard to the natural man, is to convince him of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment, and is the One by and in Whom he is born again. With regard to the regenerate man, the Holy Spirit is the One Who, at conversion, indwells the believer-making him the temple of the Holy Spirit-and Who thereafter, throughout the believer's life, seeks to infill him. By the Holy Spirit, the believer is sanctified, guided into all truth, and baptized into the Body of Christ. Therefore, the baptism is not the fullness of the Holy Spirit, but the basis on which to make the fullness possible. We do not believe the New Testament teaches that tongues-speaking is the necessary evidence of the fullness or special work of the Holy Spirit. As a mission organization, we believe that God may heal in answer to prayer, but we will not support, conduct, or publicize meetings that emphasize “tongues” and “healings.”
