Temple Builders International Church's Statement of Belief

We believe:

That the Bible is the inspired and infallible WORD of GOD

In the HOLY TRINITY (The FATHER, The SON, and HOLY GHOST)

In the Divine nature of JESUS CHRIST and immaculate HIS conception

In JESUS CHRIST’s sinless life, HIS miracle working power, HIS atoning death 

and resurrection, HIS ascension, HIS sitting on the right hand of the Father, and millennial reign

In the Rapture of the Church

In the cleansing power of the Blood of CHRIST and the power of repentance 

That regeneration by the HOLY GHOST is necessary for personal salvation 

That by HIS (JESUS’) stripes we are healed

That believers who ask for it can receive the baptism of the HOLY GHOST

That the sanctifying power of the HOLY GHOST allows us to live a Holy life

At the resurrection, the saved will receive eternal life and the lost will receive eternal damnation 

The scriptures are inspired by the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD

Man is made in the image and likeness of GOD

The True Church is the Body of CHRIST – not intended to be the edifice or institution, but the habitation of GOD through the HOLY GHOST

The mission of the Church is to: 

• be an agency for evangelizing the world; 
• be a corporate body in which man may  worship GOD; and 
• be a channel of GOD’s purpose to build a body of saints being perfected in the image of HIS son 

The Ordinances of the Church are Baptism in water and Holy Communion

That speaking in Tongues (speaking with other languages as the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD gives utterance – our heavenly language) is  “a” physical evidence of the Baptism of the HOLY SPIRIT

Divine healing is brought about by the POWER of GOD through: the prayer of faith, the laying on of hands, and/or fervent prayer

Divine healing is the privilege of every believer who will accept it

Sanctification is a definite yet progressive work of grace, as taught in the scripture, which leads to Holiness

GOD, by the HOLY SPIRIT, definitely calls whom HE desires (both male and female) to serve in the five fold ministry. HE qualifies the ones called with power, talents, wisdom, and gifts pertaining to the office or offices that HE called them to serve in

All Christians should bring their tithes to the church and release their offerings for 

the purpose of sustaining current ministry endeavors and funding the furtherance 

of ministry

There will be a pre-millennial coming of our LORD in the clouds (the Rapture) – to catch away HIS bride

The second coming of JESUS CHRIST is the eventual, visible return of JESUS CHRIST with HIS saints to reign with HIM on earth for one thousand years

There will be a final judgment in which the wicked dead will be raised,  judged 

(based on their wickedness), and cast into the lake of fire – The White Throne Judgment

There will be judgment of the dead in CHRIST and they shall receive a reward 

for their service – a crown of life, unfading glory, righteousness, and/or beauty

We can (according to HIS Promise) look for a new heaven and a new earth - 

wherein dwelleth righteousness

Special Note: All proper nouns and pronouns used to reference GOD, in all of HIS personages (persons), have all their letters capitalized to show reverence and emphasis.
