OUR STATEMENT OF
BELIEF
-
We believe in the one true
God eternally self-existing as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Genesis
1:1-3; Ephesians4:5-6)
-
We believe in the
infallibility of the Holy Scripture as the Word of God inspired by the
Holy Spirit and our need to preach the Word with the same inspiration of
the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven, giving life to the Gospel of Jesus
Christ which is the power of God unto everyone who believes. (2Timothy
3:16-17; Romans 1:16-17, 1Peter 1:12; 2Corinthians 3:2-6; John 6:63)
-
We believe in the Lordship of
Jesus Christ as the Son of God sent by God the Father to bring salvation
to the world as well as a revelation of the Father and the sending of the
Holy Spirit to continue the work of the Lord through the instrumentality
of the Church and His people. (Matthew 16:16-18)
-
We believe in the person and
work of the Holy Spirit who now guides, directs and empowers the Church to
continue the relationship and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ and our
need to personally embrace His (the Holy Spirit's) ministry in the earth
today. (Acts 2:8)
-
We believe in the virgin
birth, the life and ministry, the substitutionary death and bodily
resurrection of Jesus Christ and His ultimate return. (Luke 2; Matthew
28:1; 1Corinthians 15)
-
We believe in the fallen
state of man through sin and his need for salvation by grace through faith
as a gift from God and not of works (Romans 10:9-10, Ephesians 2:8-9), and
in the power of the redemptive blood of Jesus Christ that brings
justification by faith. (Romans 3:23-26)
-
We believe that revelation is
progressive and that there is much more that we will believe as it is
revealed by the Holy Spirit and consistent and in harmony with the written
Word of God. (Ephesians 4:11-16)
-
We believe that there is a
heaven as the reward of the believer beyond death, including a bodily
resurrection from the dead. Likewise, there is a hell as the reward of the
unbeliever beyond death, including a bodily resurrection to live in
everlasting torment and separation from God. (Matthew 25:31-34)
-
We believe that there is a
new heaven and a new earth that will take the place of this physical
planet at the return of Christ to renovate and restore all things to their
original created form. (Revelation 21:1-7)
-
We believe that the Great
Commission was given by Christ and is binding on every believer to go into
all the world preaching the gospel of the Kingdom of God to every creature
making disciples of all nations; and that every believer is a minister of
reconciliation. (Matthew 28:16-20; Mark 16:15; Luke 24:47; 2Corinthians
5:17-20)
-
We believe that the earth is
the Lord's and the fullness thereof. Everything, which appears and has
substance in the universe, comes from things invisible, creating a merging
of the natural and supernatural. God is God of heaven and earth and made
all things for our good. When put in their divinely created order, the
natural and supernatural are to work together for the meeting of man's
needs spiritually, mentally, physically, financially and in the family for
the evangelisation of the world for Jesus Christ, the Son of the living
God, and for the fulfilment of God's ultimate purpose. (John 1:1-12;
Revelation 4:11; Hebrews 1:1-5)
-
We believe that all born of
Christ by His Spirit are the Body of Christ and constitute the true
Church. The purpose of the true Church is to represent and manifest all
that the Kingdom of God is in the earth because it is founded on Jesus
Christ, the Stone/Rock who came from heaven to demonstrate, set up and
establish the Kingdom of God in the earth. The Church therefore is called
and equipped with the Word of the Kingdom and the Holy Ghost to function
as fellow citizens, ambassadors, kings and priests - to bear fruits of the
Kingdom; to rule and reign in righteousness, peace and joy; and to be
victorious over the devil. (Matthew 16:18-19, 1 Corinthians 12:12-14,
Ephesians 4:3-7, Daniel 2: 31-45, Luke 17:20-21, Ephesians 2:19,
2Corinthians 5:20, Revelation 1:6, Matthew 4:23, Matthew 13:19, 23, 21:43,
John 14:17, Romans 14:17, Matthew 12:28, Luke 10:17-22).
-
With regards to sexual
behaviour, we believe in heterosexual relationship between a natural man
and natural woman within the confines of lawful matrimony. Adherence to
this stated principle of sexual behaviour is an inherent requirement of
membership of Kingdom Life Academy.
