Our Beliefs

1. Jesus Christ, the Word who became flesh, died on the cross for the redemption of sinners, resurrected on the third day and ascended to heaven. He is the only Savior of Mankind, the Creator of the heavens and earth, and the only true God. (1 Tim 3:16; 1 Cor 15:3-4; Acts 4:12)

2. The Holy Bible consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is inspired by God, the only scriptural truth, and the standard for Christian living. (2 Tim 3:16)

3. The True Jesus Church, established by our Lord Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit during the time of the “latter rain,” is the restored true church of the apostolic time. (Joel 2:23; Amos 9:11)

4. Water Baptism is the sacrament for the remission of sins for regeneration. The baptism must take place in natural living water, such as the river, sea, or spring. The baptist, who already has had received baptism of water and the Holy Spirit, conducts the baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. And the person receiving the baptism must be completely immersed in water with head bowed and face downward. (Jn 3:5; Mt 3:16; Acts 2:38, 10:48)

5. Receiving the Holy Spirit, evidenced by speaking in tongues, is the guarantee of our inheritance of the kingdom of heaven. (Rom 8:16; Eph 1:13-14)

6. The sacrament of Footwashing enables one to have a part with the Lord Jesus. It also serves as a constant reminder that one should have love, holiness, humility, forgiveness, and service. Every person who has received water baptism must have his/her feet washed in the name of Jesus Christ. Mutual footwashing may be practiced whenever it is appropriate. (Jn 13:1-7)

7. The Holy Communion is the sacrament to commemorate the death of the Lord Jesus Christ. It enables us to partake of the flesh and blood of our Lord and to be in communion with Him so that we can have eternal life and be raised on the last day. This sacrament shall be held as often as possible. Only one unleavened bread and grape juice shall be used. (1 Cor 10:17, 11:26; Jn 6:33; Mk 14:24-25)

8. The Sabbath Day, the seventh day of the week (Saturday) is a holy day, blessed and sanctified by God. It is to be observed under the Lord’s grace for the commemoration of God’s creation and salvation, and with the hope of eternal rest in the life to come. (Gen 2:2-3; Heb 4:9-11)

9. Salvation is given by the grace of God through faith. Believers must rely on the Holy Spirit to pursue holiness, to honor God, and to love humanity. (Eph 2:8)

10. The Lord’s Second Coming will take place on the last day when He descends from heaven to judge the world: the righteous will receive eternal life, while the wicked will be eternally condemned. (Mt 25:31-34; 1 Thess 4:16-17)
