What We Believe

As Apostolic Oneness Pentecostals, we believe in the essential doctrines listed below.

 

1) We believe that there is only one God, named Jesus, who created the universe in seven literal days and has revealed Himself to humanity in three manifestations: as the Father in the Old Testament, the Son in the New Testament, and the Holy Spirit in the church age.

​

2) We believe that the first humans, Adam and Eve, were created perfect, but chose to rebel against God, bringing sin into the world and passing down their sinful nature to their descendants.

​

3) We believe that all humans are sinners and have disobeyed God's law and are therefore under God's wrath, sentenced to a literal hell.

​

4) We believe that God the Father came down to earth and added to Himself a human nature ("the Son"), was born from the virgin Mary who conceived by the Holy Spirit, lived a sinless life, was crucified and died in our place to save us from our sins, was buried, was resurrected, ascended to heaven, and will return to judge all the living and the dead.

​

5) We believe that an individual can be saved by repenting, believing in Jesus Christ and His works, getting baptized through immersion into water in Jesus' name, getting baptized by the Holy Spirit as evidenced by speaking in tongues, and living a holy life, and will go to a literal heaven, where they will eternally and blessedly live with God after death, while those who continue in disobedience will eternally suffer in God's wrath after death.

​

6) We believe that God created humanity male and female and that He blessed them with marriage, a lifelong union between one man and one woman.
