What we believe here at Shekinah Fellowship Church.
We believe the Bible is God-inspired.
(2 Timothy 3:16,17)
We believe God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14).
We believe man was created in the image of God, but that by voluntary disobedience he fell from perfection (Romans 5:12).
We believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, signing the pardon for all who believe in Him
(John 3:16; Romans 5:8).
We believe we have no righteousness and must come to God, pleading the righteousness of Christ (Ephesians 2:8)..
We believe that upon sincere repentance and a whole-hearted acceptance of Christ, we are justified before God
(Romans 10:6-10; I John 1:9).
We believe the change which takes place in the heart and life at conversion is very real one
(2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 2:20).
We believe it is the will of God that we are sanctified daily, growing constantly in the faith (Hebrews 6:1).
We believe baptism by immersion is an outward sign of an inward work
(Matthew 28:19).
We believe in the commemoration of the Lord’s Supper by the symbolical use of the bread and juice of the vine
(I Corinthians 11:24,25).
We believe the baptism with the Holy Spirit empowers believers and that His coming is after the same manner as in Bible days
(Acts 2:4).
We believe it is the will of God that we daily walk in the Spirit
(Ephesians 4:30-32).
We believe the Holy Spirit has gifts to bestow upon the Christians
(I Corinthians 12:1-11) and that we should show spiritual fruit as evidence of a Spirit-filled life (Galatians 5:22).
We believe the experience and daily walk of the believer should never lead him into extremes of fanaticism
(I Timothy 2:8-10; Colossians 3:17)
(Philippians 4:5).
We believe divine healing is the power of Christ to heal the sick in answer to the prayer of faith (James 5;14-16).
We believe the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent
( I Thessalonians 4:16,17).
We believe it is our sacred duty to identify ourselves with the visible Church of Jesus Christ (Acts 16:5; Hebrews 10:25).
We believe laws should be upheld at all times, except in things opposed to the will of God (Romans 13:1-5).
We believe some day all shall stand before the judgment seat of Christ to there receive eternal life or death
(Revelations 20:11-15; Hebrews 9:27)
(2 Corinthians 5:10).
We believe heaven is the glorious eternal home of born-again believers
(John 14:1-3; Revelation 7:15-170.
We believe hell is the place of eternal torment for all who reject Christ as their
Savior (Revelation 20:10-15).
We believe soul winning is the primary responsibility of the Church (James 5:20).
We believe the method ordained of God for the support and spread of His cause is by giving tithes and free-will offerings
(Malachi 3:10; 2 Corinthians 9:7)
