Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the
kingdom of God as a little child shall
in no wise enter therein. (Lu.18:17)
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's
good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
(Lu.12:32) And
he said unto them, verily I say unto you, There is no man
that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or
children, for the kingdom of God's sake, Who
shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and
in the world to come, life everlasting. (Lu.18:29-30)
For the kingdom of God is not
meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in
the Holy Ghost. (Rom.14:17)
For the kingdom of God is not in
word, but in power, (1 Cor.4:20). Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which
cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve
God acceptable with reverence and godly fear, (Heb.12:28).
For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you
abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, (2 Pet.1:11). And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven,
Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom
of our God, and the power of His Christ:
for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which
accused them before our God day and night. And they
overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the
word of their testimony and they loved not
their lives unto death. (Rev. 12:11-12).
A Confession of
Faith
I confess that Jesus Christ is my Lord, Master and
Savior. By
faith in Christ Jesus I am forgiven,
cleansed, healed
and made a citizen of His eternal kingdom. Jesus Christ has
redeemed me from the curse of the law of sin, sickness,
weakness and eternal death through His death on the cross
for me.
I believe in the Trinity of
one God: Almighty
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the Creator made
flesh, The Word of God who was begotten as the second
Adam. He was
born of a
virgin, died
for my sins, rose
for my justification
and is coming again soon,
in great glory, to establish His Kingdom on earth.
I believe in the new birth from above,
the baptism in water,
and the baptism in the Holy Spirit.
I confess that the blood of Jesus Christ has
cleansed me from all my sin,
I am now made the righteousness of God in and
through Christ Jesus.
I confess that I can do all things through Christ
who is my strength as I abide in Him.
I confess that this world is not my home. I confess that I am
a pilgrim in a foreign land and I look
for that certain
return of my Lord Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.
I confess that there is but one holy universal and
apostolic Church of Jesus Christ and all those who are
born from above are brethren and citizens in His kingdom.
I believe that the Church of Jesus Christ is being
perfected by the Holy Spirit through the apostles,
prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers and other
ministries of His Church
until all
the faithful come into the unity of the faith and the bond
of peace and are changed into the image and likeness of
Jesus Christ.
Basic
Statement of Doctrine
The
Holy Bible is the authoritative Word of God and is only
source of pure truth and doctrine for faith and
practice for a Holy Spiritual Life and Christian
Discipleship. Some scriptures reveal God’s sovereign and eternal point of
view through the prophets.
Other scriptures reveal man’s responsibility and
accountability of freewill in time also by the same
prophets. Eternity
is one dimension and Time is another.
The Holy Bible covers both positions of truth in
infinite detail.
God
is manifested in Trinity a form, 1 John 5:7: God the
Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit similar to
water as liquid, solid and vapor.
The balance of God’s nature is in Love, Holiness
and Power. This
balance is essential for the full revelation of Jesus
Christ, Eph.4:1-16.
The
Creator, Word of God became incarnate (or flesh) and was
placed in a virgin by the power of the Holy Spirit and was
born in Bethlehem according to Micah 5:2.
Under God’s judgement Jesus died in our place and
for our sins. He
was raised from the dead by the power of God for our
justification. He
shall come again, in great power, as Jesus the Christ,
King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
The Creator, Word of God is now Jesus the Christ
and His reign shall be forever.
The
ultimate victory of Christ Jesus will be seen in the final
victory over death at the end of this age.
At that time the disciples of Christ Jesus will be
taken out of the world into the eternal presence of God.
Then the Kingdom of the Lord
Jesus Christ shall be set up for a millennium and
the earth shall be at peace.
After that time the beginning of eternity will
begin with a new heaven and a new earth in righteousness
where there will be no more tears and the former things
are all passed away.
The
only means of redemption from the penalty of sin is the
Atoning Sacrifice of Jesus Christ and our willingness to
accept this wonderful provision from God and yield to
Jesus as Lord and Savior.
Judgement
is based upon creative knowledge, Rom.1:18-.
God is honor bound to bring all to Him who seek,
ask and knock in every corner of our world who respond to
His creation. Lk.11:9.
The
redemptive work of Jesus Christ also provides for the
healing of the human spirit, soul and body in answer to
believing prayer.
Disciples
may also be filled with the Holy Spirt and learn to enjoy
the fruit, gifts and ministries as given of the Holy
Spirit. The
Holy Spirit can give the power to live a holy life and to
minister effectively in the Kingdom to those who truly
make Jesus Christ the Lord of their lives.
Events are closing for the final judgement in the history of mankind.
Those who have yielded to Jesus as Lord will become
brethren in the eternal family of God.
Those who live egocentric lives and reject the
Lordship and forgiveness offered through Jesus Christ will
be separated from God’s presence, creation and light and
exiled into isolation and outer darkness for eternity.
To reject the Creator is to also reject His
creation. God
will not force any one to come under the authority of the
Kingdom of Jesus the Christ.
Freewill is the most precious gift in God’s
creation outside of Jesus Christ.
God has made all souls eternal and with a freewill. Only freewill makes love real and of value to God in
eternity. He is building a forever family of love to which we have all
been invited in and through Jesus Christ the Lord. |
