What We Believe

The doctrinal foundation of Soul Restoration Ministries

1

The Authority of Scripture

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. It is the supreme authority for faith and practice, profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness.

2 Timothy 3:16-172 Peter 1:20-21
2

The Oneness of God

We believe in one God who has revealed Himself as Father in creation, Son in redemption, and Holy Ghost in our lives today. Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh.

Deuteronomy 6:4Isaiah 9:6Colossians 2:91 Timothy 3:16
3

Repentance

We believe that genuine repentance — a godly sorrow for sin and a turning away from it — is essential for salvation. Repentance is the first step in responding to the gospel.

Acts 2:38Acts 3:19Luke 13:3
4

Water Baptism in Jesus Name

We believe in water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, as commanded in Scripture and practiced by the apostles.

Acts 2:38Acts 8:16Acts 10:48Acts 19:5
5

The Baptism of the Holy Ghost

We believe in the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. This is the promise of the Father and is available to all believers.

Acts 2:1-4Acts 2:38-39Acts 10:44-46Acts 19:6
6

Holiness and Separation

We believe in living a holy and separated life that is pleasing to God. Holiness is not optional but essential — we are called to present our bodies as living sacrifices.

1 Peter 1:15-16Romans 12:1-2Hebrews 12:14
7

The Five-Fold Ministry

We believe God has set in the church apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers for the perfecting of the saints and the edification of the body of Christ.

Ephesians 4:11-13
8

Divine Healing

We believe that divine healing is provided in the atonement of Jesus Christ and is the privilege of all believers. By His stripes, we are healed.

Isaiah 53:4-5James 5:14-161 Peter 2:24
9

Tithing and Giving

We believe in the biblical principle of tithing and generous giving as an act of worship and obedience to God. The tithe belongs to the Lord.

Malachi 3:8-102 Corinthians 9:6-7Luke 6:38
10

The Second Coming of Christ

We believe in the pre-millennial second coming of Jesus Christ. He is coming again to receive His church and to establish His kingdom. We are to live in readiness.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17Acts 1:11Revelation 22:20
