STATEMENT OF CHRISTIAN FAITH
What We Believe at Discovery News!
We believe in the verbal inspiration
and plenary authority of both the Old and the New Testaments without error.
(II Timothy 3:16; 17)
We believe in the
depravity and lost condition of all men by nature. (Romans 3:19-23; 5:12)
We believe in the personality of Satan. (Job 1:6;
7)
We believe in the eternal conscious punishment of
all unsaved men. (Matthew 5:46)
We believe in the Triune God; Father
(Genesis 1:1), Son (John 10:30), and Holy Spirit (John 4:24).
We believe in the virgin birth and deity of Jesus
Christ. (Like 1:35).
We believe in the
shed
blood of Jesus Christ as the only atonement for sins. (Romans 3:25).
We believe that men are justified on the single
ground of faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ. (Acts 13:38; 39)
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a person who
convicts of sin and regenerates, indwells, enlightens, and guides the
believer. (John 16:8, I Corinthians 3:16)
We believe that those
who receive Jesus Christ as Savior may have full assurance of their
salvation. (John 10:28, 29).
We believe in the bodily
resurrection and Lordship of Jesus. (Acts 2:32-36; I Timothy 2:5)
We believe in the personal, pre-tribulation
return of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Acts 1:11, I Thessalonians 4:16; 17)
We believe all believers are called into a life
of separation from all worldly and sinful practices. (James 4:4, Romans
12:12; 13)
We believe all believers in this dispensation are
members of the body of Christ, the Church. (I Corinthians 12:12; 13)
We believe in the obligation of the believer to
witness by deed and word to those truths and to proclaim the gospel to all
the world. (Acts 1:8)
We believe that God is
sovereign in the bestowment of all His gifts; and that the gifts of
evangelists, pastors, and teachers are sufficient for the perfecting of the
saints today; and that speaking in tongues and the working of sign miracles
gradually ceased as the New Testament Scriptures were completed and their
authority became established. (I Corinthians 12:4-11, II Corinthians 12:12,
Ephesians 4:7-12)
We believe that God does hear and answer the
prayer of faith in accord with His will for the sick and afflicted. (John
15:7, I John 5:14; 15)
