PROMISE LAND MINISTRIES
~ Mission Statement of Faith ~
“Statement of Faith” of Promise Land Ministries; is a nonprofit corporation operating as nondenominational ministry that works with all Bible-believing Christian that embrace traditional
Christian theology, as well as working with everyone who is open to acknowledging that Spirit that
God has Placed within them. We believe that: There is one God eternally existing in three persons:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). Jesus Christ is God the Son and is true God and
true man (Phil 2:5-8). Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin (Matthew
1:18 & 23), led a sinless life, took on Himself all our sins (Romans 5:8-9), died on the cross, and
rose again (1 Corinthians 15:1-4), and is seated at the right hand of the Father as our mediator
(Heb. 9:15) and advocate (1 John 2:1). The Bible is God's Word, uniquely and fully inspired by the
Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16-17), and is authoritative on all matters on which it speaks (2 Peter
1:20-21). All people sin and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23) and will face eternal
separation from God unless they come into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ (John 3:16-17).
Salvation is a free gift from God apart from any works (Ephesians 2:8-9) that can only be received
by faith in Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12, Galatians 2:16). God works through the members of His church
to evangelize the lost and teach believers to obey His commands (Matthew 28:18-20). Churches
are to be open to and accepting of all people, offering God's love and redemption to each person
without prejudice or condemnation (John 3:16-18). However, in their efforts to reach out,
churches must take care to uphold the Word of God, and not engage in moral compromise
(Romans 12:2) or affirm any sin such as sexual immorality, idolatry, adultery, homosexuality,
stealing, greed, drunkenness, slander, swindling (1 Corinthians 6:9-10), murder, strife, deceit,
malice, gossip (Romans 1:21-32), witchcraft, hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish
ambition, factions, or envy (Galatians 5:19-21). God's people are called to holiness in all aspects of
life (Galatians 5:22-25), with the goal of being conformed to the image of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29). ~ Especially concentrating and attaining by way of total-lifestyle and
commitment to the entire Chapter and Instructions of Matthew Chapter 25! See more at:
