GOD is the Creator of the world where we live. He controls what happens with His creation and reigns Sovereign, Omnipotent, Omniscient, and He is Omnipresent. Yahweh is eternal, meaning that He has always existed and always will, and He exists in three forms, all simultaneously – God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit.
JESUS CHRIST is the Son of God the Father. He came to this Earth in human form more than 2,000 years ago, lived a sinless life, and died a sacrificial death for every sin that mankind had committed to that point and would commit afterward. He then rose from the dead and resides in Heaven with God the Father. He has promised to return to Earth to establish a Kingdom here with everyone born again/saved. Those who have confessed that Jesus is Lord and believed in their hearts that God raised Him from the dead will be part of that Kingdom.
HOLY SPIRIT is the presence of God here and today, as described in Acts chapter 2 in the Bible. When we become more familiar with the Holy Spirit, He provides us with power for living, understanding God's ways, courage to share His love with others, and guidance to live right. Becoming a more mature Christian involves allowing the Holy Spirit to control every aspect of your life.
MANKIND was made in the spiritual image of God. His intent was that we would conform to His character. Mankind was made to give God glory – to be living, walking, breathing reminders that He exists. We fall short of that standard because of sin, an innate predisposition to disobey God. Our sinful attitude separates us from God. It's part of us and wasn't caused by anything we've experienced after we were born. We can't have the right relationship with God on our own; we need to be forgiven of our sins. That is only possible by believing that Jesus's sacrificial death on our behalf at Calvary was for each of us, individually.
SALVATION is the condition of being forgiven of one's sins. It's not the end of your life as a Christian; it's the beginning! Men, women, and children who are saved express their love for God by serving Him, telling others about Him, and worshipping Him – thanking Him for who He is and what He has done.
ETERNAL LIFE is promised to all of us. We are not earthly beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a worldly experience! We have two possible destinations when our lives on Earth end: Heaven and Hell. The difference between destinations doesn't depend on whether you were a "good person" or a "bad person;" it depends on whether or not you have asked Jesus Christ to be the Lord over your life and accepted Him as your personal Savior. If you have, you are as sure to live forever in Heaven as if you were there right now!
THE BIBLE is God's Word for His people. It was written over a lengthy period by human authors under the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit. The Bible is inspired (meaning it reflects God's heart for how we should live and not the opinions of the human authors) and infallible. The Bible is the Christian's rule book. It is a book filled with answers to your problems. The Bible is God's standard, and we experience more success in our spiritual lives as we conform our lives to its teachings.
BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT is a noticeable indication of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life, as happened in the second chapter of Acts. It can show in many ways. At Jesus Is Our Healer Mission, you'll commonly hear members praying in tongues, a means of communication with God in His devine languages. When you are speaking in tongues, it is a direct and perfect prayer to God for that particular situation. The Bible says in the book of Jude, "But you, beloved, build yourselves up in your most holy faith. Pray in the Holy Spirit."
MARRIAGE has only one meaning: uniting one biological man and one biological woman in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture. We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only within the confines of marriage.
