We hold the Christian faith, which is common to all Christian believers (Titus 1:4; Jude 1:3). Our faith is composed of the beliefs concerning the Bible, God, Christ, the Spirit, the work of Christ, salvation, and the church:
Bible
The Bible is the complete divine revelation inspired word by word by God through the Holy Spirit (2 Pet. 1:21; 2 Tim. 3:16).
God
God is uniquely one, yet triune — the Father, the Son, and the Spirit – coexisting and coinhering equally from eternity to eternity (1 Tim. 2:5a; Matt. 28:19; John 14:10).
Christ
Christ was the very God in eternity (John 1:1) and became a man in time (John 1:14). His deity is complete, and His humanity is perfect. Hence, He is both God and man (John 20:28; Rom. 9:5; John 19:5; 1 Tim. 2:5), possessing both divinity and humanity. He is the Son of God, even God Himself, who became incarnated to be a man by the name of Jesus, born of the virgin Mary, that He might be our Redeemer and Savior (Matt. 1:21, 23; Gal. 3:13; Titus 1:4).
The Spirit
After His resurrection and in His resurrection, the Lord became the pneumatic Christ who is identical to the Spirit. Now the Lord is the Spirit (2 Cor. 3:17), and He has become the life-giving Spirit who gives life (1 Cor. 15:45b). The Lord and the Spirit are one, so He is also called the Lord Spirit (2 Cor. 3:18).
The Work of Christ
Christ first became a man in incarnation (John 1:14), lived a genuine human life on earth, and died a vicarious and all-inclusive death on the cross for our sins, shedding His blood to accomplish an eternal redemption for us (1 Pet. 2:24; Eph. 1:7a; Rev. 5:9; Rom. 3:24; Heb. 9:12). He resurrected bodily from among the dead on the third day (1 Cor. 15:4). In His resurrection, He has become the life-giving Spirit to impart Himself into us as our life and our everything (Acts 10:40; 1 Cor. 15:4; 1 Cor. 15:45b). After His resurrection Christ ascended to the right hand of God to be Lord of all (Acts 1:9; Acts 2:33; Acts 2:36). He is now in glory, fully God but still fully man. After His ascension Christ poured down the Spirit of God to baptize His chosen members into one Body and that the Spirit of God, who is also the Spirit of Christ, is moving on this earth today to convict sinners, to regenerate God's chosen people, to dwell in the members of Christ for their growth in life, and to build up the Body of Christ for His full expression (Acts 1:8; 1 Cor. 12:13; Rom. 8:9; John 16:8; Titus 3:5; Eph. 4:16). At the end of this age, Christ will come back to take up His members, to judge the world, to take possession of the earth, and to establish His eternal kingdom (1 Thes. 2:19).
Salvation
A sinner must repent to God (Acts 2:38; Acts 26:20) and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16; Acts 16:31) for forgiveness of sins (Acts 10:43), for redemption (Rom. 3:24), for justification (Acts 13:39), and for regeneration (John 3:6) in order that he may have the eternal life (John 3:36) to become a child of God (John 1:12) and a member of the Body of Christ (1 Cor. 12:27). This is our salvation by God through faith (Eph. 2:4-9).
The Church
Finally, we believe that for the accomplishment of His purpose and to make known His multifarious wisdom, God produced the church (Eph. 3:10), which is the Body of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23; Col. 1:24), composed of all persons irrespective of time and space who are believers in Christ. It is God's intent that this mystical, universal Body be practically manifested on the earth in time and space as local churches, each of which encompasses all of the believers in a given city (Acts 2:44; Acts 8:1).
