What We Believe - Holy Arm Ministries

The Church
We believe in the, “universal church”, universal meaning all that believe in Jesus are a member of the body which belongs to the Lord. “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.” (I Cor. 12:12). The Church consist of all nations of believers who have been called out from the world. (I Cor. 1:9; Gal. 1:15; I Thess. 2:12)

The Bible
We believe that the Holy Bible is The Book of all books. It is a collection of books by various writers (II Peter 1:21) and that all scripture is given by inspiration of God (I Cor. 2:13), and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. (II Tim. 3:16)

The GodHead
We believe there is one God (Deut. 6:4), who externally exists in three persons. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:18-20; Rom. 1:7,20; Heb. 1:8; Acts 5:3.4, 17:29; Col. 2:9)

The Regeneration
We believe that it is the work of God to be born again from above. (John 3:3; Titus 3:5) We overcome the world through faith being born of God. (I John 5:4) When a person believes the gospel of Jesus Christ, then God regenerates according to His will through the Holy Spirit. (I Peter 1:23; John 1:12,13; John 3:5; James 1:18)

The Justification
We believe that Jesus died on the Cross, for our sins and his blood sacrifice was the offering for the remission of our sins that are past to declare us righteousness in the presence of God. (Rom. 3:24,25) We believe that God’s grace was unmerited, undeserving, freely given and a gift from God; therefore being justified by faith, we are saved and have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephes. 2:5,8; Rom. 5:15)

The Sanctification
We believe we are declare righteousness by justification and in sanctification we may become righteous. (I Cor. 6:11) The sanctification process is the work of God in us to yield good fruit of our relationship with him. (Gal. 5:17-22) It includes separating from a sinful world and dedication unto God. (John 10:36) We believe that a saint should grow in grace and the knowledge of the Lord and be transformed from glory to glory. (II Peter 3:18; II Cor. 3:18) We believe a saint should live a righteous and holy life unto God. (I Cor. 3:17; Ephes. 1:4)

The Resurrection/Judgment and Eternal Destiny
We believe in the resurrection of Christ, First. He was the first to rise from the grave with a body that was no longer subject to death. (Rom. 6:9; Rev. 1:18) He was the first born from the dead. (Col. 1:18) We believe in the resurrection of believers and unbelievers.

We believe judgment will take place with believers (I Cor. 3:10-15; II Cor. 5:10), old testament saints (Dan.12:1-3), tribulation saints (Rev. 20:4-6), living Jews (Ezek. 20:34-38), living Gentiles (Joel 3:1-2; Matt. 25:31-46), satan and fallen angels (Matt. 25:41; II Peter 2:4; Jude 6; Rev. 20:10) and unsaved people. (Rev. 20:11-15)

We believe that believers will have life eternal and the unbelievers will have eternal fire. (Matt. 25:46; John 3:16; Jude 1:7; Luke 14:14; Rev 20:5) We believe the prophecy of the rapture of the Church will be fulfilled (I Thess. 4:13-18; I Cor.15:51,52; John 14:1-3). We believe Jesus Christ will return to establish an millennial Kingdom for a thousand years. (Isa.11:1-12; Rev. 20:1-6). We believe Jesus will reign forever and we will see a new heaven and a new earth. (Rev. 21)
