信仰宣言
Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible in the original manuscripts to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative word of God. We believe that there is one Living and True God, eternally existent in three persons; the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, equal in power and glory. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ; in His virgin birth; in His sinless life; in His miracles; in His atoning death through His shed blood; in His bodily resurrection; in His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and in His future personal return in power and glory. We believe that through the personal acceptance of Jesus Christ by faith, a person becomes a Christian, and his relationship with God is restored. The acceptance of Christ assures us that:
- Christ comes into the life (Revelation 3:20)
- Sins are forgiven (Colossians 1:14)
- Becomes a child of God (John 1:12)
- A new life with Christ begins (2 Corinthians 5:17; John 10:10b)
- Assured of heaven (John 11:25,26; 17:3)
We Believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling and empowering the Christian is enabled to live a life pleasing to God (1 Corinthians 6:19; Galatians 5:22-23; 1Corinthians 12:11)
We believe in the resurrection of both the
Christian and the non-Christian; Christian to everlasting life; the
non-Christian to everlasting loss. We believe in the spiritual unity of
believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. We embrace the Apostles' Creed: "I
Believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in
Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified
dead and buried. He descended into Hades. 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 Spirit, the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints, the
forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
Amen."
