Torchbearer Statement of Faith

 

God is the triune God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

​

The Lord Jesus Christ is God’s Son being one with the Father.  All things are created by Him and for Him.

​

Through the action of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary, He became man.

​

He was without sin and of His free will, and by His sacrificial death upon the Cross, He brought about salvation for this fallen world.

​

He is the only mediator between God and man, and by accepting His salvation through faith, man is justified from his sins and receives forgiveness and eternal life.

​

Jesus Christ is risen bodily from the dead.

​

Jesus Christ will return to deliver just judgment and to bring all things to completion.

​

The Holy Spirit is God in unity with the Father and the Son.

​

Through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ comes to dwell within those who accept Him through faith. Through the presence of the Holy Spirit, a person becomes a new creature and is being transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ.

​

Jesus Christ adds those who believe in Him to his Body.  This is His church on earth, of which He is the Head.

​

The Bible is, in its entirety, the revelation of God for mankind, inspired by the Holy Spirit.
