Statement ~~~of~~~ ~~Faith~~

…Believe…

In the triune God of the Bible. God the father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit. Three distinct persons one God. Three coexistent, Co-Eternal persons who are all one God. Any depiction of the trinity cannot be accurate for we are looking at something that has no thing like it. God being completely set apart and different. He is other and in being other has no equivalent to compare to.

——————I Believe——————-

In God the Father Maker of Heaven and Earth, of all things visible and invisible.

——————I Believe——————-

In one Lord Jesus Christ, the only son of God, begotten from the Father, Wholly God, not made, Same Essence as the Father. Through him all things were made. He is Wholly divine, never ceasing to be God nor ever being less God. He humbled himself to live a life as a human. He came down from heaven incarnate by the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary. He lived a perfect sinless life as The God man. He humbled himself by adding a human body and nature not by taking anything away. He was crucified, suffered for the sins of the world, that he was buried and Rose again on the third day according to Scriptures. He Ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again with glory to judge the living and the dead.

——————I Believe——————-

In the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life. He proceeds from the Father and the Son, and with the Father and Son is worshiped and glorified. He spoke through the prophets. Upon Salvation he is our seal and each believer has him indwelling in them. He is the giver of gifts as he wills and pleases. The fruit seen in a person when in dwelt by The Holy Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, and Self Control

——————I Believe——————-

In One baptism and that being done wholly apart from our own doing. I believe water baptism is a symbol of our death and rebirth in Christ and that water baptism does not save.

——————I Believe——————-

God is and was and always has been God. God is Eternal from everlasting to everlasting.

——————I Believe——————-

That Jesus Christ who was both fully God and fully man, led the perfect, sinless life, died on the cross to atone for the sins of the whole world. That our atonement was finished on the cross, by his blood. That he was put in a tomb, and raised from the dead three days later. That he walked, talked and ate with his disciples before ascending back to heaven to sit at the right hand of The Father.

——————I Believe——————-

That there has only been one human who has ever led a perfect sinless life and that is Christ Jesus

——————I Believe——————-

That all of the scripture of The Holy Bible were breathed out by God. Inspired to be written by The Holy Spirit and contain all truth needed for faith and Christian living. That the entire Bible is inspired, infallible and that the canon is closed.

——————I Believe——————-

That we are all born with a fallen nature, I.E. Sin nature and therefore disposed to do wrong. No one is born “basically good”.

——————I Believe——————-

That people who never repent and turn to the Lord are hopelessly and eternally lost and will burn in hell for eternity. A literal place where the worm never dies and the fire never extinguished.

——————I Believe——————-

That the atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race; and that whosoever repents and puts their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and regenerate and saved from the dominion of sin

——————I Believe——————-

That believers are to be sanctified completely, after regeneration, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

——————I Believe——————-

That The Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth, and also to the entire sanctification of believers.

——————I Believe——————-

That Jesus Christ will return, the dead will be raised, and the final judgment will take place.

——————I Believe——————-

That health, wellness, and prosperity are guaranteed in eternity but not on earth, and that they are not the gospel.

——————I Believe——————-

That we are not like God and cannot create like him nor do our words have power. We are made in his image yet not divine. We, being partakers in his divine nature have been given a new heart and no longer have to be under the rule of sin. We can now please God and with his help fight against the temptations in this world.

——————I Believe——————-

That God is Completely Sovereign and that our free will is only allowed by him.
