BETHEL INTERNATIONAL BIBLE CHURCH

STATEMENT OF FAITH

As partners of Bethel International Bible Church, we acknowledge under God, and bear witness to:

The Authority and Power of the Bible

We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God, without error in all that it affirms. It is our only basis of faith and practice. We also acknowledge the power of God’s word to accomplish His purposes.

Isaiah 55:11, Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:17-18, Ephesians 1:16-23, 2Timothy 3:16

God

We affirm our belief in one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit and in the special creation of the universe as depicted in the Genesis account and the literal genuineness and clear expression of the account and biblical record.

Genesis 1:26, Matthew 3:16-17, John 10:30, 2Corrinthians 13:14

The Father

We believe in God the Father, the first person of the Trinity, He is infinite creator spirit, sovereign, eternal and unchangeable in all His attributes and worthy of love, honour, adoration and obedience.

Matthew 3:16-17, John 10:30, John 16:28, Ephesians 4:4-6, 1 John 5:4-8

The Uniqueness of Christ

We affirm our belief in the deity of the only Son of God – our Lord Jesus Christ. His virgin birth, His death on the Cross, His bodily resurrection and in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, who is in heaven and His return in glory

Isaiah 7:14, Isaiah 9:6-7 Matthew 1:18-25, Matthew 28:1-6, Mark 16:19, Acts 1:1-11

THE Holy Spirit

We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling presence the Christian is enabled to live a holy life. The outward signs of a holy life are observed through the fruits of the Spirit as defined in Galatians 5:22. We also believe that the baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it. We also affirm that the Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts to all believers; however, these gifts are diverse and apportioned for the work of the ministry and the edification of the body of Christ, as He will.

Luke 11:13, John 14:26, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 13 to 14:5, Jude 20:25

Salvation

We believe that we are only cleansed from sin through repentance and faith in the person and work of Jesus Christ and that at such a time we are born again by the power of the Holy Spirit. Public declaration of this is through baptism in water.

Exodus 15:26, Psalm 103:3, Psalm 107:20, Matthew 4:23, Mark 16:17-18, John 3:3-7, 16-18, John 10:7-18, Acts 2:21, Romans 5:18, Romans 6:23, Ephesians 2:5-81, Peter 2:24, 3John 2.

Spiritual Warfare

We believe that we are engaged in constant spiritual warfare against principalities and powers of Satan, who is seeking to frustrate the task of building Christ’s Church. As we equip ourselves with God’s armour and fight this battle with the spiritual weapons at our disposal, our victory is assured.

Matthew 17:14-20, Matthew 18:18, Mark 5:1-15, Mark 16:17, Acts 16:16-18, Ephesians 6:10-18, 2 Corinthians 10:3-6, 1 Peter 5:6-10
