We believe
in the one and only true God, as proclaimed in the Holy Bible,
Creator and Sustainer of all people and all things.
·
We believe
God is eternal and lives in the triune form of God the Father,
God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit, and yet is
One.
·
We believe
that the Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, was
conceived of the Holy Spirit (making Him fully God), born of the
virgin Mary (making Him fully man), was crucified for our sake,
died, was buried, rose to life again, ascended to heaven, and is
now seated at the right hand of God the Father.
·
We believe
the entire Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God.
·
We believe
in the personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of
Jesus Christ and faith in Him.
·
As taught
in the Bible, we believe in divine healing for our spirit,
soul, and body, in this life and the next, through our Savior
Jesus Christ, and that both forgiveness of sins and healing are
included in salvation through Christ.
·
We believe
that God is love and is a personal God Who cares deeply for each
person on earth and desires the absolute best for them and their
lives, and that He has provided the way for us to overcome the
cares, strife, sickness, and evil of this life through faith in
His Son Jesus Christ.
·
We believe that God still performs miracles today, including healing
miracles, but we don't have to helplessly wait for a miracle to
be healed. Any Christian can take the initiative to receive
the healing God has provided for ALL of us through Jesus Christ,
by learning, believing, speaking, and standing in faith on the
healing-covenant Scriptures in God's Word.
·
We also believe that God has provided doctors, nurses,
hospital, and medicine for our benefit, and that He uses them to
accomplish our healing. We further believe that God is the
highest authority we have, and that His Word, His will, His
power, and the work of Jesus Christ on the cross supersede
anything that the medical profession says or can do. Competent
medical help in conjunction with our own actions, prayers, and
beliefs help us receive the healing God has provided for us.
·
We believe
God’s Holy Spirit lives and dwells in the heart of every born
again believer, guiding, comforting, strengthening, and healing
every part of their being. All gifts and manifestations of the
Holy Spirit are intended for the benefit of believers during
this life.
·
We believe
that God wants each person on earth to be healed, whole, and
joyful, and that He has His hand on our ministry to help teach
people this truth, and to show them how to receive and maintain
these blessings. |

·
Our values
impact every aspect of the ministry and must be lived out daily,
to have the desired effect on those inside and outside the
organization, and to sustain an effective ministry.
·
We fully
embrace the values of the Bible, our primary and relevant
source of guidance for life. We seek to keep learning and
obeying the Word of God.
·
We seek
to be more like Christ every day, and to do as He did. We seek
to love and serve God and other people as Christ did.
·
We
continually seek to listen to God and discern His will for
us, as revealed by His Word and His Holy Spirit.
·
We are all
servants. We seek to please God, not ourselves or other
people, while serving others.
·
We seek
the well-being and wholeness of ourselves and others,
especially the family members God has given us.
·
We seek
to be productive contributors to the ministry, while keeping
Christ as our focus and building our relationship with Him. We
spend quiet time with Him in prayer, we read and listen to God’s
Word, and we fellowship with other believers.
·
We seek
to live out God’s principles for a balanced life,
the right
proportions of
rest and
work.
·
We seek
to live out the Biblical principles and precepts that we teach
others.
·
We seek
to live in love, hope, faith, joy, compassion, forgiveness,
humility, gratefulness, respect, honesty, integrity,
responsibility, accountability, and divine empowerment.
·
We seek
to live by the highest ethical standards, privately and
publicly.
·
We seek
to be good stewards of the time, talents, and resources which
God has given us, as individuals and as a ministry.
·
We
continually praise and thank God for all the good things he
has provided for us. |
