EBENEZER PENTECOSTAL CHURCH

We believe

We believe

Having sixty six books, both the Old and New Testaments, and verbally inspired of God and is the complete revelation of God’s will for the salvation for men, and the divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life (2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13, 2 Peter 1:21)
   
God

The Eternal, True and Holy Trinity is one God existing in three personalities, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Man

The creation of man was in the likeness of God, that he had a great fall when he transgressed God’s commandment and that only Christ the Son of God can restore the fallen man to his pristine glory.

Repentance

The fallen man should approach God with true repentance for sins and faith in the atoning death of Jesus Christ.

Justification

The man is justified by faith and that guilt is pardoned by the blood of Jesus Christ.

Regeneration

The man is born of God through the Holy Spirit and the word of God.

Water Baptism

To become one in Christ a believer should be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit by immersion in water and thus become part-takers of the burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Separation

A believer should be separated form sin, sinners, false doctrines and all kinds of worship contrary to the Bible.

Lord’s Supper

The Lord’s Supper is to be celebrated regularly until Jesus Christ comes, to commemorate the death of Jesus.

Baptism in the Holy Spirit

A believer should be filled with the Holy Spirit, that the initial sign of speaking in tongues follows the baptism of the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues though same in essence is different in its use and operation from that of the gift of tongues.

Divine Healing

Since temporal healing is included in the Sacrifice on the cross by Jesus Christ for atonement of sins, a believer should take it as a right and privilege to get bodily healing by prayer and faith.

Sanctification

A believer is sanctified by the Blood of Jesus Christ by the word of God and by the Holy Spirit.

The Church

The church is the congregation of believers; whose faith and experience should confirm to and stand steadfast in the teaching of the apostles in the New Testament.

The Ministry

The ministries of the church such as Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists and Deacons, must be those who are called by the Holy Spirit, bestowed with gifts according to their different calling.

Evangelization

Evangelization is the supreme duty and privilege of the church.

Second coming of Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is coming soon on the sky and the bride (believers) will be taken up with Him when he comes.

Great Tribulation

There will be a great tribulation on the earth when Anti-Christ will be in his power soon after the coming of Jesus Christ on the sky and the Rapture of the Bible.

The Millennium

At the end of the tribulation Jesus will come to the earth in all his glory with His saints and establish His own kingdom of righteousness for a thousand years.

The Great Judgment

After the millennium Satan and his hosts will be cast for ever into the lake of fire and there will be judgment before the Great White Throne for all the wicked who also will receive the same punishment.

New Heaven and Earth

At the time of the great judgment this present earth and heaven shall be burned up with fire and a New Heaven and a New Earth shall appear.
