Covenant Fellowship Church Declaration of Faith
We Believe:
- In the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
- In one God eternally existing in three persons;
namely, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
- That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of
the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of
the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried,
and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven
and is today at the right hand of the Father as the
Intercessor.
- That all have sinned and come short of the glory
of God and that repentance is commanded of God for
all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
- That justification, regeneration, and the new
birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus
Christ.
- In sanctification subsequent to the new birth,
through faith in the blood of Christ; through the
Word, and by the Holy Ghost.
- Holiness to be God's standard of living for His
people.
- In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to
a clean heart.
- In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit
gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence
of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
- In water baptism by immersion, and all who
repent should be baptized in the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
- Divine healing is provided for all in the
atonement.
- In the Lord's Supper and washing of the saints'
feet.
- In the premillennial second coming of Jesus.
First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch
away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to
reign on the earth a thousand years.
- In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the
righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
