VISION
STATEMENT, CREDENCE, BY-LAWS
VISION:
As we preach the Word of God in the power of the Holy Spirit we
fully expect to be a major part of
bringing in the End-Time harvest of souls and confirming God’s Covenant
with His people.
Our
heartbeat is to minister to those; others think are unreachable, through the
Word of God thereby making
a mark that cannot be erased! The scripture we stand on is Luke
4:18
and Matt.
25:23
CREDENCE:
We trust and believe the Holy Bible as the inerrant, divinely inspired Word
of God. We believe Jesus
Christ to be the Holy Son of God, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life,
and died sacrificially through crucifixion for the
sins of all mankind and was resurrected on the third day. We trust in the completed
work of the cross to bring
forgiveness of sin through the grace that God provided for us all in and by His Son’s
shed blood. We believe this complete forgiveness is available to “whosoever will” call upon His name
according to John
3:16
. We endeavor to minister the entire Word of God according to Hebrews
11:6. It is our belief that sin, sickness and poverty are curses
of the fall of man, and that in Jesus Christ we no longer have to remain
subject to them. We believe in the indwelling, infilling work of the Holy Spirit manifested by the fruits and gifts
of the Holy Spirit.
