Doctrine

Believing in one God is a key part of Apostolic belief, which helps to explain why God reveals Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Bible states there is one God, and that is evident in verses like Deuteronomy 6:4 – “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD;” and Colossians 2:9-10 – “In Him [Jesus] dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily…”

We believe the Holy Bible is the final authority and gives the wisdom to help us seek salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. It is authenticated & inspired by God and does not contain any errors. The Bible serves many purposes: for doctrine, reproof, correction, and righteous instruction. It equips believers with all the tools needed to live virtuous lives for God [2 Timothy 3]. 

Salvation, which is rooted in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ, delivers us from sins that separate humanity from God. Salvation brings eternal life, replacing suffering with joy, peace, & love. We are rescued from sin’s power and consequences, by repenting, being baptized in Jesus’ name, and receiving the Holy Spirit [Acts 2].

In the Bible, tithing, giving a tenth of your income, is commanded in the Old Testament. While the New Testament does not state any specific percentage, it does emphasize voluntary, cheerful, purposeful contributions. Giving supports church activities and charitable efforts, that reflect biblical principles [2 Corinthians 9:7].
