BeliefsAbundant Life thrives on one basic principle that God is good, He loves us, and He wants to bless us. In John 10:10, Jesus says, “The thief does not come except to steal, andto kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” God desires His people to participate in the abundant life He offers— spiritually, physically, emotionally, socially and financially prosperous—witnesses to His goodness. It is our mandate to take this message of freedom to those in South Florida and around the world. THE BIBLE. We believe the entire Bible is inspired by God, without error and that it is the authority on which we base our faith, conduct and doctrine. THE TRINITY. We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to this earth as Savior of the world. SALVATION. Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood for our sins. We believe that salvation is found by placing our faith in what Jesus did for us on the cross. We believe that a person must confess with their mouth and believe in their heart that Jesus is Lord. We believe Jesus rose from the dead and is coming again. BAPTISM. We believe water baptism is a symbol of the cleansing power of the blood of Christ and a testimony to our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. COMMUNION. We believe in the regular taking of Communion as an act of remembering what the Lord Jesus did for us on the cross. THE CHURCH. We believe the church is a local community of baptized believers unified through faith in Christ. Every believer should be in a growing relationship with Jesus by obeying God’s Word, yielding to the Holy Spirit and by being conformed to the image of Christ. The Church works together in love and unity, intent on the ultimate purpose of glorifying Christ. PRAYER LANGUAGE. We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. Abundant Life Christian Fellowship |Bay Shore NY[[@Headword:C71]]
