Doctrine

We Believe

1. Jesus is the only way to God and there is no other way (John 3:16; 14:6; 17:2-3).

2. You must be baptized in water, fully submerged, at the age of accountably (Mark 16:15; John 3:5; Act 22:16).

3. After you receive Jesus for your salvation you need to receive the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues (Acts 2:1-4; 38-39). The Holy Spirit comes to help you stay saved (Romans 8:13). If you do not speak in tongues you do not have the Holy Spirit inside of you (Act 10:44-46; 19:1-6). However the Holy Sprit can be with you but not yet in you (John 14:17).

4. The Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are three different persons but one in agreement (John 10:30; 14:23; 1 John 5:7-8).

5. The Father is greater than Jesus in rank (John 14:28; 1 Corinthians 11:3; 15:28), and Jesus is greater then the Holy Spirit in rank (John 14:26).

6. It is possible to lose your salvation and go to hell after you have been truly saved (Matthew 10:22; 13:18-23; 24:13). You can fall from grace (Hebrews 12:14-17). There are 10 roads that are leading people to Hell and they are:

The Road of Doubt: the Unbelieving Mind (Rejecting Jesus)

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

The Road of Offense: the Unforgiving Heart (Not Merciful)

Matthew 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

The Road of Lust: the Unholy Eyes (Sex Outside Marriage)

Matthew 5:27-32 KJV 27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:[28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. [29] And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. [30] And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

The Road of Greed: the Unrighteous Hand (Not Helping People)

Matthew 25:41-46 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. 44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

The Road of Pride: the Unruly Mouth (Badmouthing People)

Matthew 12:31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. 32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come… 36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

The Road of Stupidity: the Unwise Ears (Believing a Lie)

Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 25:1-13 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so ; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

The Road of Laziness: the Unprofitable Feet (Not Involved)

Matthew 25:30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The Road of Complaint:The Unthankful Hand (Not Grateful)

John 6:43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

2 Timothy 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

The Road of Entertainment:The Unseemly Leg (Indecency)

Matthew 18:7-8 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh! Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

Romans 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

The Road of Betrayal: The Unfaithful Side (Denying Jesus)

Matthew 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

7. Before Jesus died no man could see God and live but after Jesus death and resurrection, through His blood, mankind can see God (John 5:8; 14:23; Revelation 4:2:2-3; 4:1; Acts 7:55-56; Hebrews 4:16), Jesus (John 14:18, 21; Acts 26:16) and the Holy Sprit (Luke 3:22) face to face and live.

8. Mid-tribulation: Church will experience some tribulation before Jesus comes and raptures us (Matt. 24:3, 21-22).
