What We Believe Healing Heart Kingdom Church is a local body of believers living under the New Testament Kingdom Government, which specifically reflects the structure, order, and government revealed by the teachings of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This local body functions autonomously (independent), meaning that we are self-governing, self-supporting, and self-propagating, under God's headship. We are simply a part of the body of Christ. It is the Gospel of the Kingdom, in the supernatural demonstration and power made manifest by the Holy Spirit of God, that we follow. Healing Heart Kingdom Church believes in “Receiving Our Maturity as Sons of God in the Measure of the Fullness of Christ.” (Eph. 4:13-14) We believe in the Trinity, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are one, yet being 3 distinct persons. We believe that the Bible came from the very mouth of God. We believe in the "authority" of the Bible because the words of the Bible carry God's authority. We believe in order to be saved from eternal damnation, that a person must be born again into the Kingdom of God. How can you be born again, you might ask? You are born again, if you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and as your Savior, and believe that He is the only begotten son of God the Father, and that he was born to the Virgin Mary. We believe that Jesus was both God and Man; we believe that He was crucified; all sins of mankind was placed upon Jesus on the cross, and Jesus sacrificed Himself for us, and was crucified on the cross, receiving the punishment that should be ours. We believe in the nine individual spiritual gifts given by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is given to each of us in a special way. That is for the good of all. The gifts of the Spirit are: Word of Wisdom, Word of Knowledge, gift of Faith, gifts of Healing, the power to do Miracles, the ability to Prophesy, the discerning of Spirits (the ability to tell the spirits apart), the ability to speak in Tongues (when the Holy Spirit gives utterance through us), and gives the ability to interpret what was said in Tongues. The Holy Spirit gives gifts to each believer, just as He decides, and His gifts and those He has called are without repentance (meaning they are irrevocable; God will not change His mind about what He has called you to do and He will not take back the spiritual gift(s) that He has given. We believe in the fivefold ministry gifts: apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher that the Holy Spirit has given for the work of the ministry, for the edifying (the building up) of the body of Christ. We believe in living the Ten Commandments as given by God in the book of Exodus chapter 20, verses 2 through 17. Vision Statement Luke 4:18 NKJV 18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; Mission Statement Jeremiah 31:3 NKJV “therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn you” We are a teaching ministry whose mission is to enlighten, educate, encourage, and to empower in the spirit of love, through God’s Word. Teaching the lost, the impoverished in spirit, as well as those that are spiritually blind and in bondage, to bring healing, deliverance, and liberty for the purpose of discipling mature sons of God, through salvation and daily living in Jesus Christ. |
