![]() The supreme evidence of the Spirit-filled life is the fruit of the Spirit, love. We believe in the Baptism with the Holy Spirit as aĭistinct and separate experience to that of regeneration, occurring either subsequent to or simultaneous with salvation, evidenced by a greater dynamic in the Christian’s life, enabling that person to be a bold and more effective witness. We believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ and that He is an abiding helper, teacher, and guide (John 6:13, 14:16-17, 16:8-11 Romans 8:26). We believe in the person of the Holy Spirit, Who came forth from the Father and Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify and empower for ministry all who believe in Christ (John 16:8-11 Acts 1:8 Romans 8:26, 15:13,16 II Corinthians 3:18 Hebrews 9:14). We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings, his substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people and personal, visible return to earth (Isaiah 7:14 Micah 5:2 Matthew 1:23 Mark 16:19 Luke 1:34-35 John 1:1-2, 8:58,11:25 I Corinthians 15:3-4 I Timothy 3:16 Hebrews 1:8 I John 1:2 Revelation 1:8). We believe in the person of Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in the person of God the Father, an infinite, eternal, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men that He hears and answers prayer and that He saves from sin and death all those who come to Him through Jesus Christ (Deuteronomy 33:27 Psalm 90:2, 102:27 John 3:16, 4:24 I Timothy 1:17 Titus 1:3). We believe that there is one living and true GOD, eternally existing in three persons: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in power and glory that this triune God created all, upholds all, and governs all things (Genesis 1:1 Deuteronomy 6:4 Isaiah 44:8, 48:16 Matthew 28:19-20 John 10:30 Hebrews 1:3). We believe that the Word of God supersedes any earthly law that is contrary to the Holy Scriptures (Isaiah 28:13 Nehemiah 8:8 John 17:17 II Timothy 3:16-17 Hebrews 4:12 I Peter 1:23-25 II Peter 1:3-4, 21). The Word of God is the foundation upon which the church operates and is the basis for which the church is governed. We believe that the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the Word of God, fully inspired without error and the infallible rule of faith and practice. We invite you to pray about what the Lord would have you do in regards to this opportunity.HARVEST STATEMENT OF FAITH THE SCRIPTURES
