Greater Faith, WS

Statement of Faith

We believe the Holy Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are the inspired word of God without error in the original writings, and we believe that together, they are the complete revelation of God’s will for the salvation of men and it is the Divine and Final authority for all Christian faith in life.

We believe there is one God, who is creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in 3 manifestations: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We believe Jesus Christ is God wrapped in the flesh, having been conceived on the holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for all sins according to the scriptures. Further, he arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, he is seated at the right hand of God,as our High Priest, lntercessor and Advocate.

We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ. To convict men of their sins, to transform the sinner and regenerate the believer! To indwell in our hearts to guide, instruct, and to empower us for godly living and service.

We believe that man was created in the image of God, but fell into the trap of sin and is therefore lost. Only through the regeneration of the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

We believe that salvation comes through the blood shed of Jesus Christ and that his resurrection provides the only ground for justification and salvation, through faith for all who believe, and only those who accept and receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, by faith are born of the Holy Spirit and become children of God.

We Believe the return of Jesus Christ is our personal, premillennial and imminent hope and has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of every believer.

We believe there will be a bodily resurrection of all the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and the joy of the Lord, and unto the unbeliever there will be judgement and everlasting conscious punishment.

We believe the true Church of God is composed of all people who threw saving faith in Jesus Christ have been regenerated by the holy Spirit and our United together in the body of Christ. lrregardless of race, color, gender or creed. Of which Jesus is the head over all!

We believe in water baptism by immersion soon after accepting Christ as personal savior, is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to the newness of Life.

We believe in communion, which is The Lord’s Supper, a memorial service setting forth in a sacred and symbolic manner, to commemorate the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ; all true Believers and only Believers should share in and/or participate in this ceremony.
