Life In the Spirit

By Grace Through Faith

How are we saved? We are saved by grace through faith and not by works.  Both grace and faith are not one dimensional and are multi faceted. In this message we are discovering the depths of grace, faith and salvation.

Self Centered Gospel

The true gospel of Jesus Christ results in Jesus alone maintaining the throne of our heart as Lord. A self centered gospel shares the throne of or hearts with is shared with Jesus and He exists to give us a better life.

What We Believe Part Thirteen: The New Heaven & Earth

After the final judgment there will be a new heaven and a new earth. As followers of Jesus we look forward to this day. God will wipe away every tear from our eyes, and death shall be no more, no mourning, no crying, no more pain, for the former things will pass away.

What We Believe Part Twelve: The Final Judgment

According to scripture there will be a resurrection and a final judgment. The righteous in Christ will stand before the judgment seat of Christ to be judged. While the wicked will stand before the great white throne and be judged according to their works.

What We Believe Part Eleven: The Second Coming

Jesus is returning soon! Throughout the New Testament the return of Jesus is communicated as being imminent and the church should be prepared. The church should be prepared morally, spiritually and preparing others for Christ return. 

What We Believe Part Ten: Healing

We believe divine healing is an integral part of the gospel. Deliverance from sickness is provided for in the atonement of Jesus and is the privilege of all believers.

What We Believe Part Nine: The Church

The church is described throughout the New Testament as a body. Like a body the church has a purpose.  One purpose of the church is to be a witness, to be the hands and feet of Jesus going to the lost and sharing a message of hope and salvation. We believe the primary purpose of the church is the fulfillment of the Great Commission.

What We Believe Part Eight: Sanctification

Sanctification is the process of being made holy, set apart for God's purposes, and transformed into the likeness of Christ. It begins at conversion, when a person first places their faith in Jesus Christ and is born again. This ongoing process involves spiritual growth and moral development, aligning daily life with God's will and growing in virtues like love, patience, humility, and purity.

What We Believe: The Baptism in the Holy Spirit Part Two

We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is available to all born-again believers. The primary purpose of receiving the baptism in the Holy Spirit is to empower believers to be effective witnesses of the Gospel. While speaking in tongues is a sign that a believer has received this baptism, it is not the main purpose. Nonetheless, tongues do have an important role both in the life of the Spirit-filled believer and in the body of Christ.

What We Believe Part Six: The Baptism in the Holy Spirit

The baptism in the Holy Spirit is a promised experience that is subsequent and distinct from new birth. The purpose for receiving the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Spirit empowered witness.
