Lifeline Ministries Beliefs

That there is only one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

In the absolute Lordship and deity of Christ, including His pre-existence, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, and His eventual return to the Earth in glory and power.

In the full spiritual authority, the reliability, and the divine inspiration of the Bible.

That entrance into the Church is through the "new birth," which is brought about by genuine repentance of sin, confession of faith in Christ as the only Savior, and surrender to Him as Lord.

That membership in the Church is gained through the surrender of our lives to Jesus Christ. The commitment of the local church is signified by joyful participation in its worship, fellowship and witness.

That the ministry of the Holy Spirit is a present, essential component of effective Christian life and witness. And that by His indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life and to receive and use the gifts granted them by God in accordance with 1 Corinthians chapters 12 and 13.

That the church cannot effectively fulfill its mission apart from a Scriptural order of leadership. We accept that it is part of our responsibility to recognize those people and to assist in equipping them to fulfill their ministry.

In the reality of Satan, and the kingdom of darkness over which he reigns. We believe also in the absolute triumph of Christ over the devil and all his works.

That victorious Christian life is built upon a proper understanding and exercise of the spiritual authority conveyed to the believer by the gift of righteousness.

In the resurrection of the dead at Christ’s return, in the certainty of God’s judgment, and in the inescapable result of that judgment foretold in the scriptures for the just and for the unjust.
