Affirmation of Faith

The Church of God In Christ

  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible Word of God. We believe that there is One God, eternally existent in Three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
  • We believe in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God which is in Chirst, at His return.
  • We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance: faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ and being baptized in water.
  • We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
  • We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing in prayer.
  • We believe that the baptism in the Holy Ghost, according to Acts 2:4 is given to believers who ask for it.
  • We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in this present world.

Motto

God is not looking for great people, only people He can do great things through.

Mission
