Statement of Faith

Based on the Bible, as the written word of God, we believe:
[one_half]

1. That the Bible was inspired by God. He was its only author given that He revealed His message to the Patriarchs, prophets and apostles, by way of whom it was written;
2. In only one God: Everlasting, true, supernatural made up of three persons, called: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
3. That Jesus Christ is the Only Begotten Son of the Father; born of a woman; conceived in her by the Holy Spirit; died crucified on Calvary through which He established a new covenant with the Father, thus granting us access to salvation; buried and resurrected three days later; ascended to Heaven and sat at the right hand side of the Father, as our only way and intermediary with God the Father;
4. That the Church is led by the Spirit of God;
5. That we have all sinned and had fallen short of the glory of God. Nonetheless, as a result of the repentance, baptism in water, baptism in the Holy Spirit, by leading a new life, bearing fruits worthy of repentance and enduring in faith until the end, we now have the possibility to gain access to salvation and eternal life;
6. That forgiveness to our sins comes from the Lord Jesus;
7. That living in holiness, dedication to God, constantly seeking perfection—find and attain it—are duties from each church member;
8. In the baptism with the Holy Spirit, and speaking in spiritual tongues are the sign that we received it;
9. In the Supper of the Lord, as a physical action taken in remembrance of our Lord Jesus Christ’s work of redemption;
10. In the second coming of Christ Jesus in the clouds, in which He will take His Church for Himself by transforming those who endured and those who are alive at the time, into heavenly bodies;
11. In the resurrection for eternal life, reserved for the righteous because of faith, and in eternal condemnation for the sinners;

12. That the main spiritual gift from the Holy Spirit that operates in Church is the gift of prophecy, through which God guides people’s lives;
13. That God manifests Himself to Church through prophecy, visions, and dreams;
14. In the ministries of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers, commissioned by the Holy Spirit for the perfection of His Church;
15. That God reveals His doctrine to His Manservant and Maidservant, as a result of His calling and the Lord’s support;
16. That laying hands is the way to receive, awaken and develop the spiritual gifts that are given by the Holy Spirit;
17. That some spiritual gifts are:
    • Gift of imparting the Holy Spirit
