A Multi-Ethnic Church

 Our Mission

Our mission is to reach out to people from different races, languages, and ethnicities with the love of God and lead them to become devoted followers of Christ. (Matthew 28:18-20)

 

Our Vision

Our vision is to see people from different nations, tribes, and languages serving and worshiping Jesus Christ in this church. (Revelation 7:9)

 

Our Belief

The Name of Jesus has permeated every culture for more than 2,000 years. In the Name of Jesus, people have experienced great miracles as well as horrific persecution. Jesus made clear His purpose on earth; only through Him is salvation available.

 

  • Jesus’ death on a cross was the fulfillment of Old Testament law, which required blood atonement for sin. By His death and resurrection, we are redeemed from eternal separation from God, justified, made righteous, and accepted in His Name.

  • The laver symbol represents the daily cleansing from sin by the power of the Holy Spirit.

    His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness (2 Peter 1:3).

    A great portion of Christ’s earthly ministry was dedicated to healing the sick. We find no record in the gospels of Jesus turning away anyone who came to him for healing, nor do we find that any disease was too difficult for him to heal. He even raised the dead. Miraculous healings continue today—evidence that Christ still is our Healer.

  • This symbol represents a pitcher containing oil to anoint the sick for healing that comes through obedience to God’s Word.

    And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up (James 5:15).

    Clearly, the entire New Testament tells us of the Second Coming of Christ. The Alliance is committed to doing its part to complete Jesus’ Great Commission before His glorious return.

  • The crown represents Christ’s royalty as the King of Kings. His coming will be a visible, personal appearance.

    You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven (Mark 14:62).

  • The globe represents our mission in the world. The Lord urged His followers as He sent them to spread the Good News throughout the land. That appeal will continue until the gospel, through the efforts of His Church, has reached all peoples, and He comes again.

 

 Statement Of Faith

Statement of Faith

There is one God,1 who is infinitely perfect,2 existing eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.3

Jesus Christ is the true God and the true man.4 He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary.5 He died upon the cross, the Just for the unjust,6 as a substitutionary sacrifice,7 and all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.8 He arose from the dead according to the Scriptures.9 He is now at the right hand of Majesty on high as our great High Priest.10 He will come again to establish His kingdom, righteousness and peace.11

The Holy Spirit is a divine person,12 sent to dwell, guide, teach, empower the believer,13 and convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment.14

The Old and New Testaments, inerrant as originally given, were verbally inspired by God and are a complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men. They constitute the divine and only rule of Christian faith and practice.15

Man was originally created in the image and likeness of God:16 he fell through disobedience, incurring thereby both physical and spiritual death. All men are born with a sinful nature,17 are separated from the life of God, and can be saved only through the atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ.18 The portion of the unrepentant and unbelieving is existence forever in conscious torment;19 and that of the believer, in everlasting joy and bliss.20

Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all men; and those who repent and believe in Him are born again of the Holy Spirit, receive the gift of eternal life, and become the children of God.21

It is the will of God that each believer should be filled with the Holy Spirit and be sanctified wholly,22 being separated from sin and the world and fully dedicated to the will of God, thereby receiving power for holy living and effective service.23 This is both a crisis and a progressive experience wrought in the life of the believer subsequent to conversion.24

Provision is made in the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ for the healing of the mortal body.25 Prayer for the sick and anointing with oil are taught in the Scriptures and are privileges for the Church in this present age.26

The Church consists of all those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, are redeemed through His blood, and are born again of the Holy Spirit. Christ is the Head of the Body, the Church,27 which has been commissioned by Him to go into all the world as a witness, preaching the gospel to all nations.28 The local church is a body of believers in Christ who are joined together for the worship of God, for edification through the Word of God, for prayer, fellowship, the proclamation of the gospel, and observance of the ordinances of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.29

There shall be a bodily resurrection of the just and of the unjust; for the former, a resurrection unto life;30 for the latter, a resurrection unto judgment.31

The second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is imminent32 and will be personal, visible, and premillennial.33 This is the believer’s blessed hope and is a vital truth which is an incentive to holy living and faithful service.34

 What We Value

  1. We believe that lost people matter to God; therefore, they matter to us.

  2. We believe that people from different ethnicities deserve to have a place where they would feel welcomed, loved, and respected for who they are and where they came from.

  3. We believe that life-change happens best in community. This includes the concepts of small groups, discipleship, and accountability.

  4. We believe that nothing of lasting value can be done unless it is bathed in prayer.

  5. We believe that without the Holy Spirit’s empowerment, we can accomplish nothing.

  6. We believe that everything we have belongs to God. We are just His stewards.

  7. We believe that God's Word is the ultimate authority in faith and practice. We stand firm where it stands firm and remain flexible where it is flexible.
