We believe that love is the fruit of the Holy Spirit therefore, we abide under His guidance that we may bear that fruit.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. John 15:4

We believe that the bodily resurrection of Jesus not only testifies of our atonement but also guarantees that there is a day of Judgement coming upon the whole world therefore, we look for Jesus to come and deliver the church from the wrath to come.

We believe in the diversities of operations of the Holy Spirit by God. Therefore, we pray after every service, lay hands on and pray for the sick for healing, pray with the unbeliever for salvation and with the backslider for repentance, and for those who are seeking the power to be a witness for Christ we pray of the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 1Corinthians 12:7,6
We believe that the New Testament teaches us not to neglect the assembling of ourselves together. Therefore, we have an Agape Feast (pot luck) before our evening service Wednesdays.
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. Hebrews 10:25
