Statement of Faith

GOD: We believe that there is only one true, living sovereign, holy, and eternally existent God. He exists in three co-equal persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – each being a distinct person and with a distinct function, but all of one essence and all possessing the same nature, perfection, and attributes. He is only one God, but Trinity. We believe God created universe and all the creatures out of nothing but from His words, and created human being in His image and likeness. We believe God is the sovereign of cosmos, all the creatures and the history of human being, He control and guide universe and human being history into eternal Providence.  We believe the attributes of God are love, justice, holy, eternal, faithful, omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent.

JESUS CHRIST: We believe that Jesus Christ is God, the Holy Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, He is only son of the Holy Father. For fulfilling the work of redemption of the Holy Father, He was incarnated, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, descended on the earth. He is perfect God, and perfect man. On the earth He preached Gospel, performed many miracles, healed the sickenesses, casted out the evil spirits, and raised the dead.  He was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He was suffered, shed His blood on the cross as a vicarious substitute, was buried, He descended into hell; the third day, He bodily resurrected, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and will return literally, visibly, and personally in glory and power to judge the dead and the alive (John 1:1-3,14; Matthew 1:18-25; Philippians 2:5-9; Colossians 1:15; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; Acts 1:11.)  

HOLY SPIRIT: We believe that the Holy Spirit is God with perfect person, co-equal and co-existent with the Father, the Son-Christ, He is the Spirit of God, Christ, the truth and Holyness of the Spirit. He is the chief convictor of sin, the chief agent of regeneration and sanctification. The Holy Spirit indwells every believer and empowers every believer to live a godly life; to understand and go into the truth, obey Christ, to live abundant fruit of life; He gives gifts to each believer as he determines, empower the beveivers, guides believers to preach gospel, witnesses gospel is the power of God with signs and miracles.  (John 14:16-19; 16:7-15; Acts1:8, 1Corinthians 6:19-20; Romans 8:9,11; Titus 3:5, Mark16:20). 

MANKIND: We believe that in the beginning God created mankind in His image. Mankind was originally created with the ability to live perfectly for God’s glory (Genesis 1:27, 31). 
SIN: We believe that Adam, the first man, sinned by disobedience. This act resulted in the fall of all mankind; therefore, all people have sinned and lost their ability to live for the glory of God. Mankind’s fall has incurred both physical and spiritual death on all until there is forgiveness and salvation by the grace of God. (Genesis 3:1-24; Romans 3:10-23; 5:12-21; 6:23). 

SALVATION: We believe the salvation of lost and sinful mankind is a free gift of God’s grace apart from human works, based solely upon Christ’s vicarious and atoning death, effected by the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit and received only through faith in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross (Ephesians 2:8-9)。 

THE CHURCH: We believe that Christ is the head of the church, the church is the body of Christ and the family of God. It is made up of saved, baptized and regenerated believers who regularly join together on the Lord’s Day for worship, fellowship and ministry (Matthew 16:18; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14; Hebrews 10:25).        We acknowledge every local church is a part of one holy catholic and apostolic church which heritages the Great Commandment and the Great Commission from God. In order to be loyal to Bible, every local church heritages and insists the doctrines and heritages out of one holy catholic and apostolic church, declares the truth, carries out the holy rituals-baptism and holy communion, executes the church’s discipline. We believe brothers and sisters in church are supporting ligament which grow up in love of Christ who is the head.  Everyone with gifts given from God commits, obeys loyally to serve our Lord, to preach gospel, to witness Christ and His salvation.
        THE HOME: In addition to these important beliefs, I also believe that God has given the parents and the home the responsibility to bring up their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4; Proverbs 22:6).   
THE SCRIPTURES: I believe that the entire Bible, all 66 books of the combined Old and New Testaments are writen by God-breathed. The Word of God through all prophets and apostles, verbally inspired by God are inerrant in the original writings. Through the providence of God, the Word of God has been protected and preserved to become holy canon which is the only infallible and sovereign authoritative and supreme rule and standard of faith, practice and service.  The Scripture is not allowed to be changed or to be added or deleted in any way and method.  The Scripture is to guide people to understand and go into the redemption of God, and is also for teaching rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, for the benefits of which God give it to us.     (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21).

ESCHATOLOGY: I believe prophecy about eschatology in Bible, and I believe we live in eschatological age. I believe on Christ second coming, the dead in Christ will rise first and they with those who are still alive and are left will be caught up together in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and will get a gloried bodies too. Then Christ with those who overcome will reign for a thousand years on the earth. After the thousand years, Satan will be defeated at all, thrown into the lake of burning sulfur.  At the end, Christ will seat on a great white throne to judge all the countries, all the nations and all the people, all the dead will rise to be judged in front of the great white throne.  If anyone’s name is not found written in the book of life, he(she) will be condemned into the punishment of hell and be separated out of God forever. Those whose names are written in the book of life will go into new Jerusalem, and God himself will be with them forever.       

THE GREAT COMMISSION-EVANGELISM: I believe that it is the responsibility and privilege of every Christian to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ and to seek to make growing disciples in Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8).
