Deciphering the Bible – Unlocking God's Words

Our Belief

We believe in one God, the Father, eternally existing, who is a Spirit, a personal Being of supreme intelligence, knowledge, love, justice, power and authority. He, through Jesus Christ, is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all that is in them.

He is the Source of life and the One for whom (hu)man life exists. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who is the Word and who has eternally existed. We believe that He is the Messiah, the Christ, the divine Son of the living God, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born in (hu)man flesh of the virgin Mary.

We believe that it is by Him that God created all things, and that without Him was not anything made that was made. We believe in the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of God and of Christ. The Holy Spirit is the power of God and the Spirit of life eternal

We believe that Scripture, both the Old and New Testament, is God’s revelation and His complete expressed will to (hu)manity. Scripture is inspired in thought and word, infallible in the original writings; is the supreme and final authority in faith and in life; and is the foundation of all truth.

We believe that Satan is a spirit being who is the adversary of God and the children of God; Satan has been given dominion over the world for a specific time; Satan has deceived (hu)manity into rejecting God and His law; Satan has ruled by deception with the aid of a host of demons who are followers of Satan

We believe that (hu)man’s where created in the image of God with the potential to become children of God, partakers of the divine nature. God formed (hu)man of flesh, which is material substance. (hu)man beings live by the breath of life, are mortal, subject to corruption and decay, without eternal life, except as the gift of God under God’s terms and conditions as expressed in the Bible. We believe that God placed before Adam and Eve the choice of eternal life through obedience to God or death through sin. Adam and Eve yielded to temptation and disobeyed God. As a result, sin entered the world, and, through sin, death. Death now reigns over all (hu)manity because all have sinned

We believe that sin is the transgression of the law. The law is spiritual, perfect, holy, just and good. The law defines God’s love and is based upon the two great principles of love toward God and love toward neighbor. It is immutable and binding. The Ten Commandments are the 10 points of God’s law of love. We believe that breaking any one point of the law brings upon a person the penalty of sin. We believe that this fundamental spiritual law reveals the only way to true life and the only possible way of happiness, peace and joy. All unhappiness, misery, anguish and woe have come from transgressing God’s law.

We believe God so loved the world of helpless sinners that He gave His only begotten Son, who, though in all points tempted as we are, lived without sin in the (hu)man flesh. That Son, Jesus Christ, died as a sacrifice for the sins of (hu)man’s. His life, because He is the creator of all (hu)man’s, is of greater value than the sum total of all (hu)man life. His death is, therefore, sufficient to pay the penalty for every (hu)man being’s sins. In paying this penalty He has made it possible, according to God’s plan for each person to have their sins forgiven and to be released from the death penalty

We believe that the Father raised Jesus Christ from the dead after His body lay three days and three nights in the grave, thus making immortality possible for mortal man. He thereafter ascended into heaven, where He now sits at the right hand of God the Father as our High Priest and Advocate

We believe in God’s enduring righteousness. That righteousness is demonstrated by God’s faithfulness in fulfilling all the promises He made to the father of the faithful, Abraham. As promised, God multiplied Abraham’s lineal descendants so that Abraham literally became the “father” of many nations. We believe that God, as promised, materially prospered Abraham’s lineal descendants Isaac and Jacob (whose name He later changed to Israel). We believe that God, through Abraham’s Seed, Jesus Christ, is making salvation available to all (hu)manity. We believe that the knowledge that God has fulfilled and continues to fulfill the physical promises made to Abraham and his children, and that He is fulfilling the spiritual promise through Jesus Christ, is critical to understanding the message of the prophets and its application to the world.

We believe God’s purpose for mankind is to prepare those whom He calls—and who elect through a life of overcoming sin, developing righteous character and growing in grace and knowledge—to possess God’s Kingdom and become kings and priests reigning with Christ at His return. We believe that the reason for mankind’s existence is literally to be born as spirit beings into the family of God.

We believe in the personal, visible, pre-millennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ to rule the nations on earth as King of Kings and to continue His priestly office as Lord of Lords. At that time, He will sit upon the throne of David. During His 1,000-year reign on the earth, He will restore all things and establish the Kingdom of God forever.

We believe in the ordinance of water baptism by immersion after repentance. Through the laying on of hands, with prayer,the believer receives the Holy Spirit and becomes a part of the
spiritual Body of Jesus Christ

We believe that the seventh day of the week is the Sabbath of the Lord our God. On this day we are commanded to rest from our labors and worship God.

And finally we believe that Satan is going to get his butt kicked in the not to distant future.
