We deem and teach that:
All
Scripture (both the Old and New Testaments), as originally written, complete, and Inspired Word of God.
There is one God, ceaselessly existing in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
God shaped man in His image. Man, of his own harmony, chose to transgress the will and command of God, thereby
separating himself from God.
The Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was conceived by the
Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. He became man without ceasing to be God, in order that He might disclose God and
redeem sinful man.
The Lord Jesus Christ died as "the only possible sacrifice for
the entire world and only those who believe in Him are saved.
Salvation is obtained through
faith in Christ alone. Not through any amount of good works or deeds.
Baptism, by complete
immersion, is a sign to the world of one's belief, and is not done as a requirement for salvation.
All
of the gifts of the Holy Spirit are here today. They may be used for witnessing and service to the Lord, and are not to be
used for profit or drawing attention to ourselves or the Church.
We are to pray daily,
study the Word often, and fellowship with the Church regularly. We are to love others, be humble, and obey God.
The Body is the temple in which the Spirit dwells. The time is close at hand when Christ will come for the
Church, the entire body of believers, both living and dead. This will happen before the time of the Tribulation
At judgment, the believers, the family of God, will receive their reward. Those who have not been saved, will
be cast out, into everlasting punishment.
Raining Faith Ministry and Evergreen Christian
University are strongly opposed to the antichrist concept of a one-world government and a one-world Church. We never have,
nor will we be, a part of the World Council of Churches, National Council of Christian
Churches, or any other apostate ecumenical movements ~ nor any One World Order movements in any way.
