We Believe…
Shiloh Christian Centre is affiliated with the Apostolic Church of Pentecost (ACOP) of Canada.
We believe in:
-
The verbal inspriation of the Holy Scriptures.
-
The eternal existence of one true God who is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
The Saviour of men, the Lord Jesus Christ, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, very God and very man.
-
The creation, test and fall of man, as recorded in Genesis; His total spiritual depravity and inability to attain to divine righteousness.
-
The Gospel of the Grace of God, how that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day for our justification.
-
The salvation of sinners by Grace, through faith alone in the perfect and sufficient work of Christ on our behalf upon the cross of Calvary excluding all human merit.
-
Water baptism of believers by immersion in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
-
The baptism of the Holy Spirit as an experience subsequent to salvation, with the scriptural evidence, namely, speaking in tongues.
-
The gifts of the Spirit as enumerated in I Corinthians, being exercised and practiced as manifest in the early Church.
-
The Lord’s Supper, as a memorial for believers.
-
The healing of the body by Divine Power, or Divine Healing in many aspects as manifested in the early Church.
-
The eternal life of the believer and the eternal punishment of the unbeliever.
-
The Spirit-filled life of separation from the world, and the perfecting of holiness in the fear of God as an expression of Christian faith.
-
The reality and personality of Satan and demons.
-
The reality and ministry of holy angels.
-
The personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ for His Church.
-
In the sanctity of marriage, as a life long exclusive commitment between one man and one woman.
