Our Statement of faith, New Birth Pentacostal church

STATEMENT OF FAITH

There is one body and one spirit … there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism and one God and father of us all. Eph 4: 4-6

ABOUT THE BIBLE

We believe that the Bible is inspired word of God and men of God were moved by the Holy Spirit to write it. The Bible is without error in its original manuscripts.
The spiriture is the sole and final authority for faith and providing encouragement, guidance confort and instruction for training in rightrousness.

ABOUT THE TRINITY

We believe in one God. Who truly eternally exists in three persons: God the father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit. Each of who is full and equally God.

GOD THE FATHER

We believe that God the father is the first and foremost person of the trinity and Eternal, unchanging, all-knowing, perfect an Holy.

GOD THE SON

We believe that Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity and he is the only begotten son of God. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead ofter thee days to demonstrate his power over sin and dath . he ascended to heaven’s glory and will return again some day to carth to reign as king of kings and Lord of Lord.

ABOUT THE CHURCH

We believe that the church is the body of Christ of which Jesus is the jead and whose members are those who have truly received him by faith.
Furthermore, the church is the fiancee or brid of Christ, dedicated to worshipan to serve God by doing all the principles of the Bible. Baptisiry and communion servoces. Our Lord Supper. The mission of the church is to preach the gospel to all nations and train them to become disciples of Jesus Rom. 12 : 4 -5.
I Cor 12 : 25, Eph 2 : 22, Titus 2: 14, Mat 25 : 18 – 20

ABOUT THE ETERNAL SECURITY

We believe that God has given us eternal life through Jesus Christ, the true believer is secure in that salvation for eternity. If you have been genuinely saved, you cannot “lose” it. Salvation is mazintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. It is the grace and keeping power of God that gives us this security.

ABOUT ETERNITY

People an created to exist forever. Each person wil exist eternally separated from God by sin, eternally with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally spareted from God is helt to be eternally in union with him is eternal life.
Heaven and hell are real places of eternal existence.

GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the trinity. He is Co-equal with the father and the son of God too.
He lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of Spiritual trusth and guidance in doing what is right. He gives every believer a spiritual gift when they are saved. As Christians, we seek to live under his control daily.

ABOUT MAN

We believe that man was created in the image of God, to be like him in character. He was creted to glorify God, worship with God. Man feel through physical and spiritual death.
This attitude separates man from God and causes many problems in life.

ABOUT SATAN

We believe that satan is the father of all evm and real spirit being. He is a fallen angel. He was utterly defeated at the cross, but the execution of his judgment has neen postponed by God until after the millennial kingdom when he will be cast into the eternal lake of five. He is the deeriver of the world and seeking to establish his kingdom on earth by attacking and destroying belivers. He can be resited by the believer through faith and the power of the Holy Spirit.

ABOUT SALVATION

We believe that the blood shed on the cross by Jesus Christ provides the basis for forgivenes of sins and salvation, which is a free gift of God’s grace. We can never make up for our sins by self-improvement or good works.
Only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s ofter of forgiveness can anyone be saved from the penalty of sin. When we return from our self-ruled life end turn to Jesus in faith we are save. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
