ABUNDANT LIFE CHRISTIAN ASSEMBLY
WE BELIEVE:
...THERE IS ONE God, eternally existent, who has revealed Himself to man as the Father,the Son,and the Holy Spirit.( Deut.6:4; John 10:30; Luke 1:35; 1 John 5:7 )
...the Bible is the inspired and only infallible authoritative written Word of God.(2Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:19-21)
...in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death, in His resurrection, in His ascension to the Father, in His personal future return to earth in power and glory to reign for a thousand years.
(John 8:57,58; The Gospels; Revelation 19:11-20:6)
...in blessed hope, the rapture of the church at Jesus' return.
(John 14:1-3 1 Thessalonions 4:13-18)
...the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood OF Jesus Christ (Hebrews 9:11-14; Ephesians 2:8,9)
... regeneration (the new birth) by the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary for personal salvation, which should be proclaimed by water
baptism (John 3:5-7; Mark 16:16)
...the redemptive work of Jesus provides healing for the body in answer to believing prayer. (Isaiah 53:4,5; 1 Peter 2:24 )
... the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who earnestly ask for it and obey God. (Acts 2:38,39; 5:32 )
...in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life, (1 Corinthians 6:9-11; 1 Peter 1:13-16
...in the resurrection of the saved and the lost: the saved to everlasting life, and the lost to everlasting damnation, ( John 5:25-29; 1 Corinthians 15; Revelation 20:11-15 )
