Great Commission Holiness Ministries
The following is a brief but not an all inclusive list of the biblical beliefs of this organization.
We believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Saviour, spoken of by the prophets of the Old Testament, fulfilled in the New Testament.
Psalm 69:21 John 19:29/ Psalm 22:18 Mark 15:24/ Psalm 34:20 John 19:33/ Isaiah 53:9 Matthew 27:57-60/ Psalm 16:10
Matthew 28:9
We believe that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, conceived of the Holy Ghost according to the will of God.
We believe that there is one way to salvation, through the Son of God, Jesus Christ.
We believe that salvation is a gift from God, and that works and deeds cannot earn or purchase salvation.
We believe that there are three entities to the Godhead, all of the same spirit, God, portrayed through God the Father, God the Son, and
God the Holy Ghost.
We believe that the Holy Bible, God's Word is infallible in it's original text, and was inspired solely by God.
We believe that man must be regenerated or "born again" spiritually to attain salvation from the sin nature.
We believe in full immersion water baptism as an outward symbol of the inward change of the heart in the life of a "born-again" Christian.
Water baptism represents the dying of the "old man" or the sin nature at salvation, and the resurrecting of the "new man" to the
subsequent life after the salvation experience.
We believe that the indwelling and baptism of the Holy Ghost is a separate experience from the salvation experience and that it is for
today's believers as well as the early church. We believe that the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost is speaking with unknown
tongues.
We believe every Christian is required to live a holy, sanctified lifestyle after receiving Christ as Saviour. This includes but is not limited to
abstaining from things such as; ungodly habits, immodest attire, involvement in ungodly entertainment, perverse or immoral behaviour, the
blending or mixing of the genders in appearance or mannerisms, and anything else dealt with directly by God's Word. The "holiness
lifestyle" also requires the Christian to pray daily, attend church services regularly, read and study the Bible, and commit themselves to
pleasing God in all areas of their life.
We believe that there will someday be a "catching-away" or "rapturing" of the believers of Christ, which will result in a literal decline of
earth's population, as these believers are taken by Christ into Heaven.
