Our Beliefs

  1. We believe in one God (Deut. 6:4), Maker of all things and being in Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

     

  2. We believe that the Son of God, Jesus Christ became incarnate, was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary and is true God and true man (Matt. 1:18-25).

     

  3. We believe the Bible, in its entirety, to be the inspired Word of God and the only infallible rule of faith and conduct (2Tim 3:16)

     

  4. We believe in the resurrection of the dead, the eternal happiness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost (1Thess. 4:16-17).

     

  5. We believe in the personal salvation and sanctification of believers through the shed blood of Christ and in personal holiness of heart and life and in separation from the world.

     

  6. We believe that Jesus Christ is the ONLY WAY by which we can get to the Father (Jn 14:6).

     

  7. We believe in divine healing through faith and that healing is included in the Atonement.

     

  8. We believe in the baptism of the Holy Ghost accompanied by the initial physical signs of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance (Acts 2:4) as distinct from the new birth (Jn 3:3, 5); and in the nine gifts of the Spirit listed in 1 Cor. 12 as now available to believers.

     

  9. We believe in the Christian’s hope: the imminent personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 1:11).

     

  10. We believe in intensive world evangelization and missionary work in accordance with the Great Commission with signs following Matt 28:19-20).

     

  11. Nature of Doctrinal Statement:   Our doctrinal statement is not a “creed”.  In a sense, the whole Bible is our creed.  We recognize the existence of many differences in interpretation among genuine Christians.  We are however convinced that to avoid a looseness which might result in the admission to our fellowship of unbelievers or even of Christians who are unprepared to co-operate in the fellowship and work to which God has called us, certain minimum Biblical doctrinal tests must be established, the rejection of any of which shall be ground for ineligibility to membership.

     

  12. The acceptance of the ten doctrinal points stated above (1.1-1.10) is essential to the membership in this Fellowship and while we recognize the obligation of maintaining spiritual love and union towards all true Christians who may not accept all of these doctrinal points and welcome them to our fellowship gatherings, they are not permitted any voice in the conduct of our activities and are ineligible to membership in The Remnants Fellowship.
