Doctrine of Faith
“Heavenly Father, in the Name of Jesus, I present myself to You. I pray and ask Jesus to be Lord over my life. I believe it in my heart, so I say it with my mouth: “Jesus has been raised from the dead.” This moment, I make Him the Lord over my life. Jesus, come into my heart. I believe this moment that I am saved, I say it now: “I am reborn. I am a Christian. I am a child of Almighty God.”
You are now a Born-Again Believer! Now, fellowship with God through reading your Bible and prayer in the name of Jesus (which just means to talk with God)…The following is also what GJITCM believes according to God’s Word:
In the Triune of God:
- God, the Father
- His Son, Jesus (the Word made Flesh -John 1:1-16)
- The Holy Spirit
All of whom were present and active in the creation
The Bible is:
- The eternal, incorruptible Word of God (1 Peter 1:23-25)
- Of no private interpretation (2 Peter 1:20)
- Must be interpreted through itself by the Holy Ghost
(1 Corinthians 2:12-14)
- Is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, & instruction (2 Timothy 3:16)
Salvation is:
- Received by confessing Jesus is Lord with your mouth & believing in
your heart God raised Him from the dead (Romans 10:9)
- Available to “whosoever will” (Romans 10:12-13)
- God’s will for all (1 Timothy 2:4-6)
The Doctrines of Baptisms…plural (Hebrews 6:2):
1. Water baptism of repentance/ into Christ Jesus
- We’re buried & risen with Him in baptism (Colossians 2:12; Romans 6:3-11)
- Is commanded in the Word (Matthew 28:19)
2. Baptism with the Holy Ghost & fire
- Jesus is the one who baptizes us (Luke 3:16)
- Brings empowerment to witness (Acts 1:8)
- Is accompanied by speaking in tongues (Acts 2:4)
- Is a separate and distinct occurrence (Acts 8: 12-17)
Laying on of hands:
- For receiving the Holy Ghost (Acts 8:17)
- For healing the sick (Mark 16:18)
- For transfer of anointing (Acts 13:2-4)
We believe Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, day and forever:
(Hebrews 13:8). So, if Jesus ever did anything, He will still do it today! If He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil (Acts 10: 38), He will still heal all who are oppressed today.
We believe people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6), and that knowledge of God is the key to life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). Therefore, we are committed to preach & teach the whole counsel of the Word of God.
