Affirmation of Faith

We believe in the Father who is God Almighty. The creator of all things and preserver of Light and Life. We believe in the Son who is Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son. He was human and divine, truly lived, suffered and died, rose again from the dead, ascended on high and is coming again. We believe that Jesus was sent by God to reveal God to man. That whosoever believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. We believe in the Holy Ghost who was sent from God the father and the Son. That the Holy Spirit convicts and converts sinners, dwells in the believer, keeps the believer from the power of sin, and leads him to the Father through His Son, Jesus Christ. We believe the Bible is the word of God, given by inspiration through Holy men. That in the Bible, God seeks to reveal His will to man and man seeks to respond to God's revelation. We believe that the union of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is revealed through His church. That all believers are united into one body, the church. We believe that Christ is coming back for His Holy Church without spot or wrinkle. That without holiness in spirit, soul and body, no man shall see the Lord.

Our Vision

We are a Church that hears, reads, studies, memorizes, and meditates on the Word of God. We are members of the body of Christ that are fitly joined with the body at large (Ephesians 4:16). Therefore, this body is passionate on our worship experience and service of God.
This body operates in the diversity of gifts as set forth in I Corinthians 12, to include but not restricted to the gifts of wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits and tongues.
We are a teaching ministry whose focus is that of spiritual maturity and excellence so as to not have it said of this ministry that we are a people with zeal for God but not according to knowledge (2 Timothy 2:15).
We are a church whose foundation is love - for God is love. With this in our spirit, this church will express God's love through the ministry of healing. Moreover, because this is true, we suffer long and are kind; we envy not; we do not brag on ourselves, and we are not arrogant. We do not behave unseemly nor seek out our own. We are not easily provoked and think no evil. We do not rejoice in evil, but we rejoice in truth. We bear all things, believe all things, have hope in all things, and endure all thigs (1 Corinthians 13).
The family unit is recognized as a vital entity to the success of this ministry (Joshua 24:15). Therefore, this church will always promote initiatives for healthy, sound families and values.
Finally, we are a church that desires to be a people equipped to minister in excellence both locally and globally. Furthermore, our ownership and responsibility as Christians means that we must know and fulfill our individual divine purpose.
