At
Miracle Temple we believe… …that
THE BIBLE, both the Old and New Testaments, came from God through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and is His Word. …in
ONE GOD in THREE PERSONS: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. …the
LORD JESUS CHRIST is the Son of God, who was born to
VIRGIN, lived a
SINLESS life and performed miracles. We also believe that His death on the
CROSS paid the price in
FULL for the sins of
ALL people. We believe that He physically
CAME BACK to life after His death and that He ascended into
HEAVEN. He sits
TODAY at the right hand of God the Father and
WILL
RETURN to Earth in power and glory. …that being
BORN
AGAIN (or saved) through faith in the shed blood of Christ is absolutely essential. …that personal
INTEGRITY (living a changed, clean, holy life) becomes a major part of a Christian’s lifestyle through the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit. This work of the Spirit is called
SANCTIFICATION. …that those who have been born again can ask for and receive the
BAPTISM
OF
THE HOLY SPIRIT. The biblical sign that someone has received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is speaking in other tongues as the Spirit enables him or her. …in practicing
WATER BAPTISM by immersion, for believers only as an outward sign of an inward work. This is a direct
COMMAND of Jesus and is to be done in the
NAME of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. …that
DIVINE HEALING was provided by Jesus’
SUFFERING and
DEATH on the Cross and is available to all
BELIEVERS. …that Jesus will physically come back to Earth for a
THOUSAND year period called “
THE MILLENNIUM.” Seven years prior to this, He will first bring back to life those Christians who have died and will
SUPERNATURALLY cause living Christians to rise from the ground to
MEET
HIM in the sky. He will then begin to
REIGN for a
THOUSAND years on Earth. …that everyone who dies, whether Christian or not, will physically be brought back to life by God. This is called the
RESURRECTION. Those that have trusted Christ for their salvation will spend
ETERNITY with God; those who have not will live forever in everlasting torment and fire.
