1 Peter 4:8-10 Amplified Bible (AMP)

8 Above all, have fervent and unfailing love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins [it overlooks unkindness and unselfishly seeks the best for others]. 9 Be hospitable to one another without complaint. 10 Just as each one of you has received a special gift [a spiritual talent, an ability graciously given by God], employ it in serving one another as [is appropriate for] good stewards of God’s multi-faceted grace [faithfully using the diverse, varied gifts and abilities granted to Christians by God’s unmerited favor].

What We Believe:

• About the bible:

The Scriptures are Inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
Scripture references: 2 Timothy 3:16; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21

• About God:

There is only One True God–revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (the Trinity)
Scripture references: Deuteronomy 6:4; Philippians 2:6

• About Jesus Christ:

We believe In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s son, Jesus was both human and divine. The Son is the living Word of God the One Begotten, and has existed with the Father from the beginning.
Scripture references: John 1:1; John 1:18; John 1:14

• About the Holy Spirit:

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Special Experience Following Salvation that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times. Jesus promised His followers they would receive power from on high so that they would be His witnesses. We believe this truth is just as relevant today as our fellowship continues to take the gospel message around the globe.
Scripture references: Acts 1:4, Acts 2:4, Acts 8:12-17, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 11:14-16, Acts 15:7-9, Luke 24:49, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31

• About salvation

Though originally good, Man Willingly Fell to Sin–ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world. We believe Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship with God Through ‘Salvation’ (trusting Christ, through faith and repentance, to be our personal Savior). Sanctification Initially Occurs at Salvation and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy, but also a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as believers continually draw closer to God and become more Christlike. The doctrine of Salvation forms the core of our Christian faith by proclaiming God’s victory over sin in our lives. This truth results in deliverance, healing and restored lives. Whether a new member or a mature Christian, every believer should have a clear understanding of salvation and the difference this truth makes in our lives and churches. 
Scripture references: Matthew 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, Acts 4:12, Acts 8:26-39, John 3, John 19, Romans 5:8-11, Romans 6:23, Romans 8:16, Romans 10:9-13, Ephesians 2:8,9, Titus 2:11,12

• About end times

With the world experiencing natural disasters, economic downturns and increasing uncertainties on many fronts, the doctrine of Christ’s Second Coming is more relevant than ever. Believers must rest in the certainty of the imminent return of our Lord and share this hope with others. We believe in The Blessed Hope,—When Jesus Raptures His Church Prior to His Return to Earth (the second coming). At this future moment in time all believers who have died will rise from their graves and will meet the Lord in the air, and Christians who are alive will be caught up with them, to be with the Lord forever. We believe…in The Millennial Reign of Christ when Jesus returns with His saints at His second coming and begins His benevolent rule over earth for 1,000 years. This millennial reign will bring the salvation of national Israel and the establishment of universal peace.
Scripture references:​ Matthew 24:30, 31, Mark 13:26, 27, Luke 21:34-36, Romans 8:2, I Corinthians 15:51-52, I Thessalonians 4:16-17, Titus 2:13, James 5:8, 2 Peter 3:10-13, Revelation 1:7

• About the church

We believe…and practice two ordinances—(1) Water Baptism by Immersion after repenting of one’s sins and receiving Christ’s gift of salvation, and (2) Holy Communion (the Lord’s Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ’s suffering and death for our salvation. We believe…The Church has a Mission to seek and save all who are lost in sin. We believe ‘the Church’ is the Body of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout time, have accepted God’s offer of redemption (regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son Jesus Christ. We believe…A Divinely Called and Scripturally Ordained Leadership Ministry Serves the Church. The Bible teaches that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves to reach others for Christ, to worship Him with other believers, to build up or edify the body of believers–the Church and to meet human need with ministries of love and compassion.
Scripture references: 1 Peter 3:21, Acts 10:48, Colossians 2:12, Matthew 26:26-28, Acts 2:42-46, Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 13:47, Mark 16:15, Romans 10:13-14

• About eternity

We believe…A Final Judgment Will Take Place for those who have rejected Christ. They will be judged for their sin and consigned to eternal punishment in an eternal lake of fire called Hell. We believe…and look forward to the perfect New Heavens and a New Earth that Christ is preparing for all people, of all time, who have accepted Him. We will live and dwell with Him there forever following His millennial reign on Earth. ‘And so shall we forever be with the Lord!’
Scripture references: Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 19:20
 

• About divine healing

We believe…Divine Healing of the Sick is a Privilege for Christians Today and is provided for in Christ’s atonement (His sacrificial death on the cross for our sins). Wherever Jesus went, He ministered with compassion and healed the sick. Christ’s example showed an interconnection with salvation as many believed following their healing. Our Lord continues to heal today and it is vital that the church preach, teach and practice this biblical truth. Scriptures command believers to pray in faith and trust God for the outcome.
