The Foundations of our Faith

THERE IS BUT ONE AUTHORITY, THE BIBLE

We believe in the Bible as the basis of true faith, the practice of that faith, and the final authority over all aspects of our lives. We hold the entirety of Scripture to be divinely inspired by God, as He carried men along as they wrote to convey His Word to mankind without error in those originally written manuscripts. We also believe that God has divinely preserved the message of the Bible throughout its existence, so much so that the Bible we have today is in essence the same as it was when it was first written, kept for His purpose of our instruction concerning who He is, who we are in relation to Him, how we can know Him personally and thus be saved, and what His revealed will is for the whole world for all of time (Deut. 8:3; 29:29; Ps. 19:7-11; Prov. 6:23; Isa. 40:8; Matt. 4:4; Mark 13:11; Luke 24:27, 44; John 5:39; 21:24; Acts 17:2–3; 18:28; 26:22–23; 28:23; Rom. 15:4; 1 Cor. 2:13; 10:11; 15:1-4 2 Tim. 3:16; Heb. 4:12; 1 Pet. 1:23-25; 2 Pet. 1:20-21).

THERE IS BUT ONE GOD, THE GOD OF THE BIBLE

We believe in the existence of one single, supernatural, and personal being, God, who has created and sustained the world. He is above all and there are no other gods except Him, the one true God of the Bible (Deut. 4:35, 39, 6:4; 2 Kgs. 19:15, 19; Ps. 86:10; Neh. 9:6; Isa. 43:10; 45:5; 44:6; Mark 12:29; Rom. 3:29-30; 10:12; 1 Cor. 8:6; Gal. 3:20; Eph. 4:6; Col. 1:15-20; 1 Tim. 2:5).

THERE IS BUT ONE GOD, EXISTING IN TRIUNITY FOR ALL TO TRUST IN

We believe that this one God exists in three coequal, coexistent, codependent persons of the same essence as the Triune Godhead, known as God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit (Gen. 1:26; 3:22; Matt. 3:16-17; 28:19; John 5:17-24; 10:30; 14:23; 15:26; 16:15; 1 Cor. 8:6; 12:3; Eph. 4:4-6; 1 Tim. 3:16; Titus 2:13; Heb. 1:2-3; 9:14; 1 Pet. 1:2, 17-22; 1 John 4:2, 13-15; 5:20).

GOD: We believe in God the Father, who loves all people in the world so much, no matter who they are or what they’ve done, simply because He created them to be a perfect reflection of Himself. Even though God loves the world so much, we all rebel against Him simply by sinning, and so become guilty of breaking His perfect standards. Because God is also a just God as well as a loving God, He cannot look on the people He loves so much without also seeing their sin within them, sin which He hates and cannot tolerate since it ruins the perfection we were created in and created for and violates the perfect standards of a perfectly holy God. The consequence of such sin has to be exile from having any personal relationship with Him since He cannot allow sin to be in His perfect presence. Sin warrants separation from God and thus forfeits mankind’s privilege to be in God’s perfect presence of heaven since they are by their own choice sentencing themselves to hell. Yet because God is a God of loving kindness and mercy, He longs for everyone to have an opportunity to be saved from that eternal separation from Him and reestablish a perfectly sinless relationship with Him (Gen. 1:26-3:24; Ex. 34:7; Deut. 30:15-18; Ps. 51:1-6; Ecc. 7:20; Isa. 53:6; 64:8; Jer. 31:3; Ezek. 18:20; Micah 6:8; John 3:16, 6:40; Rom. 3:10-23; 5:8, 10, 12; 6:23; 2 Cor. 5:18-19; Gal. 3:10, 22; Eph. 2:1-6; Titus 2:11; 1 Pet. 3:18; 1 John 1:8-10; Rev. 21:8).

JESUS CHRIST: We believe in Jesus Christ, who was begotten as the only Son of God in the same essence and fullness of God, coeternally coexisting from the very beginning with God, and thus is equally God. We believe Jesus Christ humbled Himself of His glory in heaven and took on the form of a man, born into the world as wholly human but still wholly divine, through the perfect, sinless conception of a virgin woman by the power of the Holy Spirit of God. We believe Jesus Christ was born into the world for the sole purpose of dying a foreseen, cruel, and undeserved death on the cross. We believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross as a sinless person to be the only perfect substitute for the sins of all people. It is because of His shed blood on the cross that washes us clean with God’s forgiveness that He could carry out His Father’s desire to provide a way for mankind to be made perfect again so that we could have a personal and eternal relationship with God both in this world and in heaven. This salvation is attained simply by accepting God’s invitation to believe that He loved us sinners so much that He proved His love for us by sending His Son Jesus Christ to be born into the world for the sole purpose of dying in our place, so that He could take our eternal death away from us and give us His eternal life. We believe Jesus Christ resurrected from the grave in glory, which proclaimed His victory over sin and death, and because of His resurrection, has provided all those who trust in Him as Savior the hope and promise of their very own resurrection in glory, a factual event which will take place when Jesus Christ comes back to take believers to heaven, and a hope which is proof of the believers’ already won victory over sin and death which is valid because of the victory He has won for them. Soon after the resurrection of believers, Jesus Christ will defeat those who stood opposed to God and those who would not believe in Him will be condemned with God’s wrath, while believers will be kept safe with God forever (Lev. 17:11; Isa. 53:4-12; Matt. 1:18-23; 9:13; 26:39; Luke 1:34-35; 4:18; 22:42, 70; John 1:1-2, 14, 18; 3:16-18, 36; 5:24; 10:28-30; 11:25-26; 14:6, 10; 17:3, 22-23; 18:11; 19:30; Acts 2:24; 4:12; Rom. 5:8-10; 8:3, 32-37; 1 Cor. 15:12-19, 49; 2 Cor. 5:18-19, 21; Eph. 2:4-5, 8-9; Philippians 2:6-8; Col. 1:15-22; 1 Thess. 4:13-17; 5:1-10; Heb. 1:3, 5; 2:9-18; 4:15; 7:26; 9:14, 22; 10:5-9; 13:20; 1 Pet. 1:18-21; 2:22-25; 3:18; 1 John 1:3; 3:5; 4:9-10, 14-15; Rev. 5:9; 19:11-20:15).

THE HOLY SPIRIT: We believe in the Holy Spirit as coequally coexisting with God from the beginning, in the same essence and fullness of God, and thus is God. We believe that it was by the Holy Spirit that Jesus Christ was conceived by a virgin. We believe that the Holy Spirit was active in His ministry in the world prior to the conception of Jesus Christ, even crucial in His role in creating and sustaining creation, as well as it was a unique characteristic of His to empower certain individuals, sometimes temporarily indwelling them, for God’s purpose, especially in conveying the Word of God to men. We believe that the Holy Spirit acts as an agent of regeneration, immediately transforming individuals who come to faith in God to be made into a new creature, released from their former enslavement to sin by nature to now have the freedom to do what God would want for them to do. We believe that the Holy Spirit increased and extended his ministry in the world fifty days after the resurrection of Christ. He has become the agent who not only regenerates individuals who come to faith in Christ, but simultaneously also sets them apart into the holy family of God forever, indwells them as their helper to do God’s will, seals them with Himself to be their guarantee of eternal life and blessings in heaven, identifies them with Himself as proof of recognition of their membership in the universal Body of Christ, and provides supernatural gifts to them so that they would be enabled to serve Christ by serving each other, until the day Christ takes the Church to heaven (Gen. 1:2; Ex. 31:3; Judg. 6:34; Job 33:4; Ps. 104:30; 139:7; Isa. 61:1; 63:10-11; Matt. 3:16; 28:19; Luke 1:35; John 3:5; Rom. 8:9; 12:6-13; 1 Cor. 2:10-14; 6:11; 12:7-11, 13; 2 Cor. 1:22; 13:14; Eph. 1:13-14; 4:30; 2 Thess. 2:13; Titus 3:5; 1 Pet. 4:10; 2 Pet. 1:20-21).
