What
we Believe in:
Charis
Gospel Family World Outreach is a charismatic, non-denominational church. Our
core beliefs include:
1.
We believe the Bible is inspired and
empowered by God, infallible and authoritative.
2.
Inspired Word – Every Scripture is
inspired by God (2 Timothy 3:16).
3. Nature of God – There is one God, all things
existing through and by Him.
4.
Creation – Humanity was created by God and in the image of God (Genesis
1:27-31; 2:4-25).
5. New Birth – Man fell through the sin of Adam,
separating the intimate relationship between man and God (Genesis 3:1-24;
Romans 3:10-24). There is only one way to receive forgiveness of this sin and
to be redeemed back to God, and that is through His Son, Jesus Christ (Acts
2:21; 4:12; 16:31; Romans 10:8-13; 2 Corinthians 5:17).
6. We believe it is essential for man to repent
of sin and by faith receive the finished work of Christ by confessing Him as
Lord with his mouth and believing in his heart resulting in regeneration by the
Holy Spirit.
7. We believe the Holy Spirit is continuing the
work He started at Pentecost empowering believers to live a godly life and
continue in all the works of Jesus. The infilling of the Holy Spirit is for every
believer on the earth, and is distinctly separate from the born-again
experience. Speaking in tongues is the initial, physical evidence of this gift
(Acts 2:1-4; 10:46).
8. Gifts of the Holy Spirit – The nine gifts of
the Holy Spirit as stated in 1 Corinthians 12:8-10 should be in operation in
the local Church today (Hebrews 13:8) for the edifying of the Church (1
Corinthians 14:40).
9.
Prayer – Every believer should have a continual Word and prayer life (Joshua
1:8; 1 Timothy 4:15; 2:1-4; 1 John 5:14, 15; John 16:24).
