What We Believe
"The Church where we let God be God"
Our Statement of Faith
At Ark of The Covenant, we believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. Our beliefs are founded on biblical principles and teachings. Here are the core beliefs that guide our church:
The Bible
We believe in the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
God
We believe in one eternal God existing in three persons; the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ, born of the Virgin Mary, is the only begotten Son of the Father, and the Holy Ghost conceived him.
Resurrection
We believe that Jesus was crucified, buried and raised from the dead, on the third day; He ascended to heaven and sat at the right hand of the Father as the intercessor.
Sin and Repentance
We believe that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God; to be forgiven of sins all must repent.
Holy Living
We believe God's standard for his people is to live holy.
Speaking in Tongues
We believe in speaking in tongues as the spirit gives utterance.
Water Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion, we baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Divine Healing
We believe in divine healing.
Lord's Supper
We believe in the Lord's Supper and the washing of the Saints' feet.
Second Coming
We believe in the second coming of the Lord, and that the dead in Christ will rise first, then the Saints that are living will be caught up to meet him in the air.
Modest Apparel
We believe in dressing in modest apparel according to Timothy 2:9 and 1 Corinthians 11:14-15; and also Deuteronomy 22:5.
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." - 2 Timothy 3:16-17
