Salvation happens in three phases. Salvation of the Spirit, Salvation or renewal of the mind happening as we study God’s word and Salvation of the body when Christ comes.
1. To be saved you need to put your Faith in Jesus Christ. This gives you a new spirit and you will receive the Holy Spirit and your name is written in the lamb’s book of life.
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
When you believe Christ died to receive your punishment for sins and you believe you can receive forgiveness and purification from sins through the blood of Jesus Christ that was shed and you believe he rose up on the third day for you to have a new life and resurrection when he comes. Then you need to repent from your sin and call on his name to save you. He will surely save you and give you his Holy Spirit.
2. Follow Christ by studying and obeying God’s word (the Bible)
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, John 8:31 ESV
Read the Bible and obey God’s word. These will help you to renew or transform (Rom 12:1-2) your mind daily to the mind of Christ as you read and obey the word of God daily.
3. Following Christ by being an active part of the body of Christ, the church.
Join a Bible-believing and obeying church Heb10:25, like ours which will help you to keep learning about Jesus and about God, so you keep being in Christ and keep growing in faith. Then you’ll be able to receive the transformation or salvation of your body and be able to reign with Christ when he comes.
“…just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.” Eph 5:25-7
Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. Rom 8:23
Prayer for Salvation
Pray this prayer to be saved “Lord Jesus, I believe you died to take away my sins, you rose us to give me a new life. I repent of all my sins today and I decide to follow you for the rest of my life. Forgive all my sins and save me in Jesus name I pray.
So you can receive a VIP welcome and be able to show you around if this is your first time and we can provide personalized first time experience for your and your family. It also helps us to make adequate preparations for you and your kids.
We love to see Jesus in the Big Screens.
STATEMENT OF BELIEFS
The Bible.
We believe that the bible is the infallible, unfailing Word of God. It was inspired
by the Holy Spirit and written through Spirit-empowered people as God’s
revelation of himself to man.
We believe that the Bible is the final and absolute authority for Christian Belief
and Behavior. Unique and unequalled in power and authority, the Bible is the
supreme standard by which all human conduct and opinions must be tried.
2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Peter 1: 20-21
God.
We believe in the one true and living God who exists eternally in unity as three
equal persons: Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. Each member of the God head,
while having distinct and complementary roles have exactly the same nature,
essence and being
*We believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all
things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, begotten from the Father
before all ages God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten,
not made; of the same essence as the Father. Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven; he became incarnate by
the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary, and was made human. He was crucified for us
under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried.
The third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures. He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again with glory to
judge the living and the dead. His kingdom will never end. And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life. He proceeds from the
Father and the Son, and with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified.
He spoke through the prophets. We affirm one baptism for the forgiveness of
sins. We look forward to the resurrection of the dead, and to life in the world to
come. Amen. *
*Adapted from Nicene creed. Matthew 3: 16-17, 28:19
Salvation:
We believe that God created humanity, male and female in his own image.
Humanity was created free from sin but sinned against God by their own choice,
bringing sin and death into the world. All human beings are separated from God
under the power of sin and death and are in desperate need of salvation through
Christ.
We believe that Jesus Christ dies for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried, and rose again securing salvation for all who repent and trust in him. We believe that Salvation is in Christ alone, by Grace alone, Through faith in him alone. The moments one puts their faith in Jesus, they received the gift the gift of eternal life, are declared righteous before God and are adopted into the family of God.
Genesis 1: 27, Romans 5: 12 -15, John 14; 6, Romans 5: 1-2 1 Corinthians15:3-4,
Ephesians1: 5-6
Baptism and Communion:
We believe that Christian Baptism is the public declaration of a believers
repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. This act of obedience identifies the believer
with Christ in his death, burial, and resurrection through immersion in. We also
believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
We believe that communion as commanded by Jesus symbolizes the new
covenant inaugurated in his blood. Communion is the coming together of
believers to commemorate the Lord’s death until he returns
Matthew 28: 19, Romans 6: 3-5, Matthew 26: 26-29, 1 Corinthians 11: 23-27
The Church
We believe that each person who has accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is
made part of the universal church, the body of Christ, whose head is Jesus Christ
Himself. Each Local church is an expression of the universal church.
We believe that belonging to a local church is essential for all believers, for
worship, teaching, prayer, fellowship and discipleship. We believe that the local
church is the primary vehicle for the fulfilling of Jesus command to make disciples
of all nations
