Salvation                                  Doctrine of Salvation

This ministry is built upon the 1611 translation of the King James Version Bible. We compel students who study all other translations that Scripture should always be checked against the Authorized Version, Matthew Henry Commentary on the Old & New Testaments, Wycliff Bible Commentary & RA Torrey.

"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul"  Mark 8:36

 

THE SCRIPTURES
The Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as the Holy Spirit moved them. We accept the New Covenant, as recorded in the New Testament, as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine.
(II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21; I Thessalonians 2:13)

 

THE GODHEAD
Our God is One, but manifested in three persons • the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Philippians 2:6; John 14:21-26)

God our Father is greater than all • the Source of the Word (Logos) and the Begetter. (John 14:28; John 16:28; John 1:14)

The Son, Jesus Christ is the Word flesh-covered, the One Begotten, and has existed with the Father from the beginning. (John 1:14; John 1:18; John 1:1)

 The Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost, Spirit) Who is eternal, proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son.
(John 15:26)

 

MAN, HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION
Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God; but through Adam's transgression and fall, sin came into the world. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one. Jesus Christ (the Son of God) was manifested to undo the works of the devil. He gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God. (Romans 5:12; Romans 3:23; Romans 3:10; I John 3:8)

Salvation is the gift of God to man, separate from works and the law. It is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God. (Ephesians 2:8)

 

ETERNAL LIFE AND NEW BIRTH
Man's first step toward salvation is godly sorrow that works repentance. The new birth is available to all mankind. When Jesus Christ is accepted as Savior, salvation takes place; man becomes born again; and his spirit becomes eternally alive to God.
(II Corinthians 7:10; I John 5:12; John 3:3-5)

 

WATER BAPTISM
Baptism in water is by immersion. It is a direct commandment of our Lord for believers only. This ordinance is a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection.
(Matthew 28:19; Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12; Acts 8:36-39)

The following recommendation regarding the water baptismal formula is adopted to wit:

"On confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by His authority, I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Amen."

 

BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to those who are believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the new birth.
(Matthew 3:11; John 14:16-17; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38-39; Acts 19:1-7; Acts 2:4)

 

SANCTIFICATION
The Bible teaches that without Holiness no man can see the Lord. We believe in the doctrine of Sanctification as a definite, yet progressive, work of grace commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of Salvation.
(Hebrews 12:14; I Thessalonians 5:23; II Peter 3:18; II Corinthians 3:18; Philippians 3:12-14; I Corinthians 1:30

 

DIVINE HEALING
Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith and by the laying on of hands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and it is the privilege of every member of the church today.
(Mark 16:18; James 5:14-16; I Peter 2:24; Matthew 8:17; Isaiah 53:4-5)

 

RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS AND THE RETURN OF OUR CHRIST
The Angels said, "...this same Jesus shall so come in like manner...". His coming is imminent. When He comes, "the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air" (Acts 1:11; I Thessalonians 4:16-17)



Following the Tribulation, He shall return to earth as KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS; and together with His saints, who shall be kings and priests, He shall reign a thousand years.
(Revelation 19:16; Revelation 20:6
