Statement of Faith
Why We Exist
What We Aren't
A Note to Pastors/Church Leaders
We believe:
The Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
In one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In the full humanity and deity of Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in his miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
Salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose blood was shed on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins.
In the person and works of the Holy Spirit, convicting the world of sin, righteousness and judgment, whose regeneration and baptism into the body of Christ occurs at salvation, whose indwelling enables Christians to live a Godly life, and whose sealing keeps them to the day of redemption.
In a God of both mercy and justice; the resurrection of both the believer and the unbeliever; those who believe by faith to resurrection of life with Christ and those that do not believe to judgment and eternal separation from Christ.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Adopted from the Statement of Faith of the National Association of Evangelicals
Pakistan
For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.
16So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
