Outline of Faith / What We Believe 1 God We believe in the only true God. God is the Creator of all things and exists forever in the third place of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Lord, Jesus Christ. Deuteronomy 6: 4; Colossians 1:19; 2: 9; John: 17-30 2 Bible The Bible is the inspiring Word of God and the only correct instruction for Christian deeds. The authority of the Bible is absolutely correct. "The Bible is all inspired by God and is useful for teaching, commandments, corrections, and training of righteousness." 2 Timothy 3: 15-17 3 Jesus Christ Our only Son of God, our Jesus Christ, was born in this world by the Holy Spirit to the Virgin Mary. Through the miracles and mysterious works he performed throughout his life, God showed that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. And Jesus died on our behalf and was physically resurrected again. Now he sits in the right hand of God the Father and is always interceding us with God. We perform the sacrament of the Lord for the purpose of remembering the price that Christ paid to ensure our salvation. ・ Birth of the Virgin ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ Isaiah 7:14 ・ Miracle ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ ・Ascension ...

Abandon and stand up again and start a new life by Jesus Christ. Matthew 28:19, Romans 6: 1-11 6 Baptism with the Holy Spirit By being baptized by the Holy Spirit, believers can be true witnesses and good workers for the Lord Jesus Christ. Baptism with the Holy Spirit speaks in new words as proof. Acts 1: 8, 2: 4, 10: 44-46, 19: 1-7. Also, all the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit are needed for a healthy church. 1 Corinthians 12: 1-11, Galatians 5: 22-23, Matthew 7: 16-20 7 The Second Coming Jesus Christ is physically seconded by his power and glory to accept his bride, the Church. And Jesus and his bride will rule this land for 1000 years.

(Ecclesia = rally = church). Ephesus 1: 22-23, 2: 19-22, 5: 23-32, Colossae 4:15 9 Clergy We believe in priests who have been vocationally called by God for the purpose of teaching and guiding the group of God. "Thus Christ himself set up some as an apostle, some as a prophet, some as an evangelist, and some as a pastor or teacher. It prepared the saints to do the work of service. To build the body of Christ ”Ephesians 4: 11-12. They should also have a vision that goes beyond their pastoral church. It is a vision of world missions. Marco 16:15, 20
