What We Believe
On Salvation
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but
have everlasting life.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the
Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised
Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and
that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: Not of works, lest
any man should boast.
The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth: And
in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the
Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third
day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and
sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He
shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy
Ghost; the holy universal church; the communion of saints; the
forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life
everlasting. Amen
1Corinthians 15:1-4
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached
unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By
which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto
you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first
of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins
according to the scriptures; And that He was buried, and that He
rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
On Water Baptism (subsequent to salvation);
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
Holy Ghost:
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world,
and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Acts 8:34-39 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray
thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some
other man? Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same
scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. And as they went on [their]
way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here
is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If
thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered
and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he
commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into
the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. And when
they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught
away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way
rejoicing.
On Healing (still available today);
Psalms 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all
His benefits:
Psalms 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth
all thy diseases;
1Peter 2:24 Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on
the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto
righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
James 5:14-16 Is any sick among you? let him call for the
elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with
oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the
sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed
sins, they shall be forgiven him. Confess [your] faults one to
another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The
effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
On the Baptism with the Holy Spirit (subsequent to salvation);
Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy
Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part of the earth.
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and
began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them
utterance.
Acts 2:38-39 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be
baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that
are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call.
Acts 10:45-47 And they of the circumcision which believed
were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the
Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. For they
heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which
have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
On the Coming of the Lord (for the church 1st, with the church
2nd);
1Thessalonians 4:13-18 But I would not have you to be
ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow
not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus
died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God
bring with Him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord,
that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord
shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall
descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trump of God: and 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: and so shall
we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these
words.
On the Gifts of the Spirit (still available today);
1Corinthians 1:7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting
for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1Corinthians 12:1 Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren,
I would not have you ignorant.
1Corinthians 12:8-11 For to one is given by the Spirit the
word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing
by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another
prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers]
kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all
these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every
man severally as he will. |
