Bonham First Assembly of God - What We
Believe
-
We believe that the scriptures are inspired by God.
-
We Believe there is One True God revealed in three
persons.
-
We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
We believe that man willingly fell into sin - ushering in
evil an death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
-
We believe every person can be restored to fellowship with
God through accepting Christ's offer of forgiveness and salvation.
-
We believe in water baptism by immersion after salvation,
and Holy Communion as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death
for our salvation.
-
We believe the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a special
experience available to all following salvation that empowers believers for
witnessing and effective service.
-
We believe the initial evidence of the Baptism in the Holy
Spirit is speaking in other tongues as experienced on the Day of Pentecost.
-
We believe sanctification initially occurs at Salvation,
but is a progressive, lifelong process.
-
We believe the church has a mission to seek and share the
gospel with all who do not know Jesus.
-
We believe a divinely called and biblically ordained
leadership ministry serves the church.
-
We believe divine healing of the sick is a privilege for
Christians today and is provided for in Christ's atonement.
-
We believe in the Blessed Hope - when Jesus raptures his
church prior to His return to Earth.
-
We believe in the millennial reign of Christ - when Jesus
returns with His saints at His second coming and begins His rule over earth
for a thousand years.
-
We believe in a final judgment for those who have rejected
Christ.
-
We believe in a new heaven and a new earth that Christ is
preparing for all people who have accepted Him.
