Teamwork

The elders are united through the message of the cross and subsequent work of God in their lives. By God's grace and His will, they work as a team under the apostolic anointing and leading of the fivefold ministries.

"And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ"

(Ephesians 4:11-12)

Statement of Faith

WE BELIEVE

as the inspired Word of God, infallible and absolute foundation to our faith (2 Tim 3:16)

the only Son, begotten of the Father ; divine in nature, He was made man, being conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary (Luke 1:34-35). The only man never to have sinned (Heb 4:15), He was crucified, and died for the remission of the sins of the whole world (Isa 53:5, 1 Pet 2:24, 3:18). He rose again (1 Cor 15:3-4), ascended to heaven (Acts 1), and reigns at the right-hand of the Father (1 Cor 15:25, Luke 22:69), where He intercedes for us (Rom 8:34). He is the only mediator between God and men (1 Tim 2:5).

(Gen 3, 1 Cor 15:21-22). In the fact that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Rom 3:23). In salvation and the gift of eternal life that can only be obtained through repentance and through faith in the work and person of Jesus Christ. He alone provides justification (forgiveness of sins) and regeneration (new birth) of our being (Acts 4:12, Acts 3:19, Mk 16, Rom 3:26-30, Rom 5:18-19, Jn 3:3, Tit 3:5).

(Mk 12:32), in forgiveness (Mt 11:25), in honesty (Mt 5:8, 1 Tim 1:5), in marital faithfulness (Mt 5:25), in exercising parental authority without aggression or violence (Eph 6:4) but with love and patient, forbearing firmness. We encourage children to be obedient to their parents, and to love and respect them (Eph 6:1). Finally, we recommend respect for established laws and authorities (Tit 3:5, Rom 13:5) as well as integrity and understanding between employers and employees (1 Pet 2:18).
