Our Doctrine is simply:
1. THE CHURCH
We believe that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is one,
universal and indivisible, and composed of all men regardless of
nationality, language, race or custom, who have accepted our Lord
Jesus Christ as their Savior and have been baptized into His Body
by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:13). The bonds of a
common faith and love unite the members of the Church. The
flag or banner of the Church is the Name of Jesus Christ before
whose emblem the Church marches gallantly as an army on parade
(Song of Solomon 6: 10).
2. THERE IS ONLY ONE
GOD
We believe there is only one God who has manifested Himself to the
world in various forms throughout the ages. He has specially
revealed Himself as Father in the creation of the universe, as Son
in the redemption of humanity, and as the Holy Spirit pouring out
in the hearts of believers.
This God is the Creator of everything that exists, whether visible or invisible. He is eternal, infinite in power, and Holy in His nature, attributes, and purpose. He possesses an absolute and indivisible divinity. He is infinite in His immensity, inconceivable in His way of being, and indescribable in essence. Since an infinite mind can only be comprehended by itself, no one can completely know Him but Himself. He has neither body nor parts; therefore, He is free of any limitations.
The first commandment of all is, “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord” (Mark 12:29 ; Deuteronomy 6:4). “But to us there is but one God...” (1 Corinthians 8:6).
3. JESUS
CHRIST
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was born miraculously from
the womb of the Virgin Mary through the work of the Holy Spirit,
and He is, at the same time, the One and only true God (Romans 9:5;
1 John 5:20). The God of the Old Testament took upon Himself human
form (Isaiah 60:1-3). “And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among
us...” (John 1: 14). “And without controversy great is the mystery
of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the
Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in
the world, received up into glory.” (1 Timothy 3:16).
We believe that in Jesus Christ, God’s divine
attributes and human nature were combined in a perfect and
incomprehensible form.
We believe that the divine attributes and the human nature of God
were incorporated in an incomprehensible yet perfect form in Christ
Jesus. He is called the Son of Man because He was born of the
Virgin Mary in whose womb He took the form of man, and thus
acquired His human nature. He is called the Son of God because He
was begotten of the Holy Spirit and thus partook of the Divine
nature.
He was human through Mary, in whose womb He took the form of
man. He was divine through the Holy Spirit who fathered Him
in Mary. Thus, He is called the Son of God and Son of
man.
Therefore, we believe that Jesus Christ is God
“For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.”
(Colossians 2:9) We also believe that the Bible makes known
all His attributes. He is the everlasting Father and, at the
same time, a child born unto us (Isaiah 9:6).
He is the Creator of all things (Colossians 1: 16-17; Isaiah 45:
18). He is Omnipresent (John 3:13 ; Deuteronomy 4:39 ).
He performed wonders as the Almighty God (Luke 5:24-26; Psalms 86:
10). He has power over the seas (Mark 4:37-39; Psalms
107:29-30). He is always the same (Hebrews 13:8; Psalms
102:27).
