| Overseas Summer Missions is an inter-denominational ministry. The statement of fundamental doctrines, which we believe, is given below:
The Bible, consisting of 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, is the Word of God without error, and is a supernaturally given revelation from God Himself. The Bible exhibits Gods will and purposes, offering the salvation of men and women, and making aware their duty and destiny. It is the divine and final authority of all Christians life and faith.
The Bible manifests the glorious majesty of the one true God; He is the Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ is fully God and fully human. He was miraculously conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and was born of a virgin. He is perfect Deity, and is the way, the truth and the life for all mankind. He was crucified as a propitiation for our sins, was bodily resurrected from the dead, ascended into heaven to the right hand of God the Father, and continually lives to make intercession for us.
All people are created in the image of God. By nature, we are separated from God and responsible for our own trespasses and sins. The salvation, redemption and forgiveness of sins, is freely offered to all by the grace of Jesus Christ. All who repent and confess of their sins and receive Jesus Christ as their Savior and their Lord become the children of God and receive eternal life.
The second coming of Jesus Christ with His holy angels will be personal and visible; He will raise the dead, judge the world, and establish His glorious and forever-lasting kingdom. |
