What we believe

1.The Scripture Inspired 

We believe that, the Bible is the inspired word of God, revelation from God to man, the infallible rule of faith and conduct.  (Tim.3: 15-17; 2 Pet.1: 20,21; Rev.22: 18-19; Math.24: 35; Psalms 119:89; 1 Pet.1: 25.)

2. The One True God

  • The One True God has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent, “I am” (Exodus 3:14). The Godhead is composed of three persons i.e., Father, son and the Holy Ghost, who are united to form one Triune God.
    (Gen.1: 26; 11:5-7; Deut. 6:4; Mark.12: 29; Isa.43: 10-11; Math.28: 19; Luke 3:22; 2 Cor. 13:14; 1 John 5:7; Isa. 9:6.)
  • Jesus Christ is the only begotten son of the Father, conceived of Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus Christ was crucified, buried, and rose from the dead; that He ascended to Heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.
    (John 1:18; 3:16; Luke 1:30-35; Math.1: 18-22; Acts 4:10; 2:27 and 34-35; Heb.4: 14; 7:25,26; 8:1; 10:12; Jesus Christ is Almighty God. Rev.1: 8; 4:8; 1 Tim.3: 16.)

3. Man his fall and Redemption

We believe that, Man was created good and upright; for God said, “Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness.” But man by voluntary transgression, fell, and His only hope of redemption is in Jesus Christ the Son of God.(Gen.1: 26,27; Ps.8: 4-6; Rom.3: 23,24.)

4.Repentance toward God

We believe that, Repentance is a godly sorrow for sin with a renunciation of sin.
(Acts 3:19; Acts 20:21; 2 Cor. 7:10,11; Marks 1:15; 2 Cor.7: 14; Ezek.18: 30-32; Acts 2:38; 17:30.)

5.Restitution

We believe that, the Word of God teaches that wrongs against our fellow men for which we can make amends must be righted. We must have a conscience void of offence towards God and man. Restitution includes restoring where you have defrauded, stolen or slandered, paying back debts, and making confession.
(Lev 6:4 Ezek.33:15; Luke 19:8-9; Rev.2: 5; 3:3 and 19.

6.Justification and Regeneration

We believe that, Justification is the Act of God’s grace where by we receive remission of sins and stand before God as though we had never sinned.(Acts13:39 Rom.3: 24, -26; Rom 5:1; 4:5; 1 Cor.6: 2; 2 Cor.5: 17,21; Gal.3: 24; John 1:12,13; Tit.3: 5; 1 Pet.1: 13).

7.Sanctification (Holiness)

We believe that, Entire sanctification is the act of God’s grace by which we are made holy. It is the second definite work wrought by the blood of Jesus through faith and subsequent to salvation and regeneration.
(John 17:15-17; 1 Thess.4: 3-7; 5:23; Heb.2: 11; 12:14; 13:12; 1 John 1:7; Luke 1:74,75; 2 Cor.7: 1; 1 Pet.1: 15,16; Eph.5: 26,27.)

8.Water Baptism

We believe in Baptism by immersion “in the name of the Father and of the son and of the Holy Ghost,” as Jesus Commanded,(Math.28: 19; 3:16; Acts 8:37,38; Rom./6:3-5; Col.2: 12; Mark.16: 15,16; Gal.3: 27,28.)

9.Baptism of the Holy Ghost

We believe that,the baptism of the Holy Ghost is the enduement of power from on high upon the clean, sanctified life with unknown tongue as a clear outward sign.
(Luke 24:49; 11:13; Math.3: 11; John 7:37-39; John 14:16, 17,26; Acts 1:4,8; 2:1-4,33; 10:44-47; 19:6).

10.Separation

We believe that, the children of God are urged, therefore to “come out from among them (unbelievers) and be ye separate saith the Lord.”(Lev.20: 24-26; Gen.12: 1; 2 Cor.6: 14-18; Acts 2:40; Deut.7: 1-7; Psalms.1: 1-2; 4:3; Isa.52: 11; Rev.18: 4.)

11. Sufferings

We believe that according to the Scriptures, sufferings are essential for the perfection of the saint, to the stature of Jesus Christ. Suffering is not a curse, but a blessing in the life of a child of God. Through suffering one’s faith is tested (1 Pet.1:7). To become the heirs with Christ (Rom.8:17,18), for removing the carnal nature (Ezek.22:17-21; Zech.13:9; Mal.3:2,3; Heb.2:10) To comfort others. (2 Cor.1:4-7)

12. Prosperity

We believe that, the Word of God teaches that God wants his children to prosper spiritually (3 John 2), more than physically, because this world is not our home, We have a beautiful home being prepared for us. Believers lusting after the material things, is spiritual adultery (Jas.4:4) A disciple of Christ does not have to ask God for material blessings. (Math.6:19-34) but seek the heavenly things (Math.7:7-11; Jn.15:7; Col.3:1-3; Jas.4:2,3; Phil.4:7)

13. Faith Ministry

We believe that, a servant of God, whom God has called for His glorious ministry, need not beg for money, He will get his wages in due time (Math.10:5-14). He is the Lord of Elijah. He is Jehovah Jireh. One has to labour by faith. He need not beg for financial support from others.
If need be work with own hands like Paul did. (Acts 18:1-4; Acts 20:32-35;)
(1 Thess.2:9) He will eat the riches of the gentiles (Isa.61:6)

14. The Bride of Christ  - The Church

We believe that, the Bride of Christ, are the saints who while on their sojourn on this earth have grown to the perfection of Christ. There are three experiences concerning the kingdom of God.

  • Seeing the Kingdom – John 3:3
  • Entering the Kingdom – John 3:5
  • Inheriting the Kingdom – Gal.5:19-21.

All those who inherit the Kingdom will be in the Bride of Christ.


16. Lord’s Supper and washing Disciple’s feet

We believe that, Jesus instituted the Lord’ supper that we might, “show the lord’s death till He comes.”
(1 Cor.11: 23-26; Luke 22:17-20; Math.26: 26-29; Acts 2:42; 20:7 and 11.)
Jesus said, “if I then your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.” (John13: 14-15.)

17. Divine Healing

We believe that, the healing of sickness and diseases is provided for God’s people in the atonement.
(Isa.53: 4,5; Math.8: 17; Mark 16:18; Jas.5: 14-16; Luke 13:16; Ps. 41:3,4; Acts 10:38; Ex.15: 26; Num.12: 13; Deut.7: 15; Ps. 103:3; Isa.33: 24.)

18. The Second coming of Jesus

We believe that, the return of Jesus will be just as literal and visible as His going away.
(Acts 1:9-11; John 14:3)
and first to catch away His waiting Bride.
(Heb.9: 28; Rev.16: 15; Rev.19: 7 and8; Rev.22: 12; 3:10; 1 Thess.4: 15-17; 5:1-9.)

19. The Judgment of saints

We believe that, the saints shall appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every one may receive the things done in his body according to that he had done.
(2 Cor.5: 10; 1 Cor.3: 10-14.)

20. The Great Tribulation

We believe that, during the interim between Christ’s coming for His Bride and His return in judgment, there is to a Great Tribulation. Or the time of Jacob’s trouble.
(Math.24: 21,29; Rev.6-13 chaps. Mark.13: 29; Jer. 30:7; Dan.12: 1.)

21. Christ’s Millennial Reign

We believe that, Christ’s Millennial reign is the 1000 years literal reign of Jesus on earth, which will be ushered in by coming of Jesus back to earth with ten thousands of His saints. At this time He will judge the nations that dwell upon the earth.
(Jude 14 and 15; 2 Thess.1: 7-10; Rev.5: 10; 11:15; 20:6; Zech.14: 9; Dan.2: 44.)
During this time Satan will be bound.
(Rev.20: 2,3.)
It will be a reign of peace and blessing.
(Isa.11: 6-9; 65:25; Hos.2: 18; Zech.14: 9. Isa.2: 2-4.)

22. Great White Throne Judgment

We believe that, God will finally judge the living and the dead according to their works.
(Rev.20: 11-14; Dan.12: 2; Acts 10:42; Heb.9: 27; John 5:27,28.)

23. Eternal Heaven and Eternal Hell

We believe that, the Word teaches that the Hell is as eternal as Heaven.
(Math.25: 41-46.)
The wicked shall be cast into a burning hell, a lake of fire burning with brimstone forever and ever.
(Rev.14: 10,11; Luke 16:24; Mark 9:43,44; Rev.21: 9; 20:15; Isa.66: 24; Isa.14: 4-11; Math.13: 42;
Rev.19: 20; 20:10.)

24. The New Heaven and the New Earth

We believe that, the Word teaches that this earth that has been polluted by sin shall pass away. God will create a new heaven and new earth in which righteousness will dwell.
(Math.24: 35; 2 Pet.3: 12,13; Rev. 21:1-3; Isa.65; 17; 66:22.)
