On the Bible:
We Apostolics firmly believe that the
Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is inerrant, reliable, and holds the key to
every human need.
(See John 5:39; Matthew 24:35; II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:21.)
On Salvation:
We hold to the same instructions given by the
Apostle Peter in Acts 2:38. Full salvation comes by grace through faith in
Christ, repentance from sin, water baptism by immersion in the name of the
Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and the baptism of the Holy
Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking with other tongues.
(See Acts 8:16; 10:44-48; 19:1-7; 22:16.)
On the Deity of Jesus Christ: We believe that there is
only one God who has manifested Himself to the world in the person of Jesus Christ.
The divine nature that resided in Christ was the selfsame Jehovah of the Old Testament and
the Holy Spirit of the Church age.
(See Isaiah 9:6; John 8:58; John 14:8-11; Colossians 2:9-10.)
On Holiness: We teach that a born again believer should
live pleasing to God in every aspect of his life. The Scriptures make clear that
dress, conduct, amusements, speech and all other activities are important to basic
Christianity.
(See Romans 12:1-2; I Corinthians 11:1-15; Galatians 5:16-26.)
On Miracles and Divine Healing: Jesus Christ is the
same, yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). God can heal, deliver, and work
miracles in the twenty-first century just as He did in the first. We have the right
and confidence to trust Him for this in Jesus' Name.
On Christ's Return: We look for the literal, personal
return of Christ; first to rapture His Church (I Thessalonians 4:16-18) and secondly, to
set up a kingdom that shall rule in peace.
(See Acts 1-11; II Timothy 4-8; Revelations 20:6.)
