HIGH DESERT
APOSTOLIC COMMUNITY CHURCH
DOCTRINE
WE BELIEVE
that the Bible is the inspired, infallible (unalterable) Word of God,
written by holy men of old, as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
2Peter 1:20-21
WE BELIEVE
in one God Who is infinite in power, holy in nature, attributes and purposes, as well as omniscient and omnipresent. We believe that He was revealed to us as Father in creation, as Son in redemption, and as Holy Spirit in His comforting grace that never leaves those who trust Him.
Genesis 1:1, Leviticus 11:44, Revelation 919:6, Colossians 1:16
WE BELIEVE
in the death, burial, and resurrection
of Jesus. We believe that He ascended
on high and has sent His Spirit, the Holy Ghost, which was poured out at Jerusalem over 2000 years ago, and it is this same Spirit that is filling the hearts of those who diligently seek Him today.
Acts 2:14
WE BELIEVE
that in Jesus dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, for it pleased the Father that in Him should all the fullness dwell.
Psalm 139:9, 1 Corinthians 8:6, Ephesians 4:6, 2 Corinthians 5:19, Colossians 1:19
WE BELIEVE
in baptism in water by immersion in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and in the baptism of the Holy Ghost, speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. This constitutes the new birth.
Acts 2:4, Acts 2:38
WE BELIEVE
in the Virgin Birth. Jesus was both human and divine; He was God manifested
in the flesh.
Matthew 1:23, 1 Timothy 3:16
WE BELIEVE
in a holy, sanctified life. We believe
in divine healing, communion and foot washing. We believe also in the glorious catching away (the rapture) of the saints when Jesus returns in the clouds in glory
to take His people to heaven.
Hebrews 12:14, 1 Peter 1:15-16,
James 5:14-15, 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17
OUR CHIEF AIM
is to glorify our Savior, who is Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
Titus 2:14
