Do you know that spiritism is one of the works of the "flesh" and that those guilty of them can never inherit the kingdom of God? "Now the works of the flesh are...Adultery...witchcraft, etc., and they shall not inherit the kingdom of God?" (Gal. 5:19-21)
Do you know that those who have to do with spiritism in any form have no place in Heaven, but are cast into the lake burning with fire and brimstone? (Rev. 22:15, 21:8)
Do you know that the teachings of spiritism are "doctrines of demons?" Now in latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils" (1 Tim 4:1).
Do you know that the so-called spirits of the dead are simply hypocritical impersonations by demons? "Speaking lies in hypocrisy: having conscientious seared with a hot iron: 4:2
Do you know that the rise of spiritism is a sign of the "last days"? In the latter times some shall give heed to seducing spirits" (4:1)

And Saul had put away those that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land" (1 Sam. 28.3)

"And when Saul inquired of the Lord, the Lord answered him not" (1Sam. 28:;7)
Do you know that Saul's loss of his crown and his wretched death were god's judgment because he had been dealing in spiritism?
"So Saul died...for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit." (1 Chron. 10:13)

And he used enchantments and witchcraft and provoked him to anger" (2 Chron. 33:6)
Do you know that one of the declared causes of Israel's rejection by God was their traffic in spiritism?
"therefore thou hast forsaken thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are soothsayers like the Philistines" (Isa. 2:6)
There are no excuses--now you know...
We Believe: (in its entirety)
In the Triune God – The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit. 1John:5:7, John 28:19
God The Father: There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three manifestations: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost). Gen 1:1, John 1:1, 17:5,
The Son: Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the first among many brethren. He is the Head of the Body the church. Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where He sits at the right hand of the majesty on high, He is now our high Priests and Advocate. John 1:1-4, Eph 1:7, 17-23
The Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is a divine person. The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and during this age, to convict men of sin, regenerate the believing sinner, indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for Godly living and service and included in his present day ministry to believers, is the sovereign distribution of Spiritual gifts to believers for empowerment for service in the contemporary church. 1 Cor 12, 14, Eph 4:7-12, Gal 3:26-28
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God. The Bible, the Scriptures both Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God without error in the original writings, and complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men and the divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life. 2 Tim:3-16
All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and are in need of salvation. Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all men. The shed blood of Jesus Christ and his resurrection provide the only ground for justification and salvation for all who believe. John 3;16, 23, Eph 2:8,9, Rom 3:10-12
The Church Consist Of All Those Who Have Received Jesus Christ As Their Personal Savior through saving faith, and have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and only such as receive Jesus Christ by faith are born of the Holy Spirit and thus become children of God. John 1:12,13, Eph 2:8,9, Rom 10:9;10
It Is The Will Of God That Every Believer Be Filled With The Holy Spirit. We believe in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost) for all Christians. It is in fact, this individual indwelling that verifies and validates the believer as a part of the Body of Christ. We believe in the perpetuity and continuing ecclesiastical value of all Spiritual gifts for edification of believers and the Body of Christ until the end of this church age is confirmed by the glorious event; the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. Mark 16:14-17, Eph 5:18, Rom 8:14-27, John 16:7-14
We Believe That Healing Is Provided In The Redemptive Work Of Christ And Is Available To Every Believer. We believe the Gospel includes the proclamation of both the eternal power of the potential power of Pentecost; the baptizing power of Jesus Christ for Salvation through his work on Calvary and the filling and controlling power of the Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit) for service and holy victory because of Pentecost. Isa. 53:5, Ps 103:3, 1 Pet 2:24, Mark 16:18, Acts 2:2-4
In the personal, visible, imminent return of our Lord, Jesus Christ is our hope and has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer. There shall be a bodily resurrection of all the dead, the just and the unjust. Of the Believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment. Acts 1:9-11, 1Thes. 4:13-18, 5:23
In Water Baptism, and Observance of the Lord’s Supper. Water baptism by immersion is a testimony of the death to sin and resurrection to a new life and the Lord’s Supper or Communion is a memorial service setting forth in sacred and symbolic manner the death of the Lord Jesus; all true believers and only believers should share in it. Matt 28:19-20, Mark 16:16, Rom. 6:3-11, Acts 19:3-5, Matt. 26:26-29, Mark 14:22-25, Luke 22-19, 20, 1 Cor 11:23-26
We believe in the value of biblical terminology of Leadership and in the contemporary offices of Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher, Bishop, Overseer, Elder, Minister, Missionary and Deacon. We believe that all of these designations are for servant leaders, and that servant leaders are manifest as the Spirit wills, therefore regardless to gender, those having received the call of God are recognized as servant leaders and are capable through the Spirit of God to occupy leadership as the Spirit wills, They may be so titled as the, Call of God, Gift and Anointing of the Spirit are manifest through their life and ministry. Jer. 3:15, Acts 20:28, 2 Cor. Tim, 3:1-7, Eph 4:11-16, Rom 12:3-7.
