Our Doctrinal Statement of Faith
The Congregation of the Mighty Ecclesial Embassy believes and teaches the following:
-
The fullness of the Godhead is one, as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. [According to Matthew 28:18-20.]​​
-
​The infallibility of God’s eternal Scriptures, the Holy Bible. [According to 2 Timothy 3:16.]
-
The whole counsel of God and His sound doctrine, as found in: 1 Timothy 1:10; 2 Timothy 4:3; Titus 1:9; 2:1.
-
That all humanity must be saved by being born again by the blood and Spirit of Jesus Christ. [According to John 1:11, 12; 3:3-8; Acts 4:12.]
-
The new birth, required for salvation and redemption, is possible because of the incarnation of the Son of God: Jesus Christ who was fathered by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin.
-
The baptism of the Holy Spirit, God’s enduement of power from on high according to Acts 1:8—evidences Himself other tongues spoken by those He indwells as a result. [According to Acts 2:4 and 1 Corinthians 14:21.]
-
The indwelling of the Holy Spirit confirms the new births and seals the New Creation by faith. [These are according to Romans 8:23; 2 Corinthians 6:16; Ezekiel 11:19; 18:31; 36:25-27; John 3:3-8; 1 Peter 1:23; and 1 John 2:27.]
-
Water baptism as taught in Scripture is no substitute for being born again by the Spirit and blood of Jesus Christ. [Although it is important, according to Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 1:8; Luke 3:21; Acts 1:5; Romans 6:31; 1 Corinthians 10:2; and Galatians 3:27.]
-
The effects of being born again make converts a new creature in Jesus Christ and a member of His everlasting nation of kings and priests to God that Jesus revealed to His apostle John in Revelation 1:6; 5:10.
-
Present-day miracles, signs, and wonders are the Lord working with His church, confirming His word with accompanying signs. [According to Mark 16:20.]
-
The Lord Jesus is returning to the earth for a church without spot or wrinkle, and all New Creation believers are to work out their salvation, until then, with fear and trembling. [According to Revelation 19:11-17; Philippians 2:12, and Hebrews 9:28.]
-
Biblical holiness, sanctification, righteousness, and godliness according to God’s truth. [According to Hebrews 12:14; Exodus 19:6; Leviticus 20:7; and 1 Peter 1:1:15, 16.]
-
Scripture-mandated world evangelism and outreach. [According to Mark 16:15 and Matthew 22:9.]
-
Prophecy, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit, the gifts of the Spirit, and demonstrations of the Holy Spirit are all biblical and practicable. [According to 1 Corinthians 2:4; 4:20; 12; 1-11; and Romans 12:6.]
-
The five-fold offices of the New Testament church, found in Ephesians 4:11; 1 Corinthians 12:28, 29, for God’s complete restoration of His New Creation ministries throughout His body.
-
The threefold constitutional offices in 1 Corinthians 12:28 expresses and encompasses the entirety of Christ’s ecclesia and its providential dispensations as Jesus sent it to earth.
-
That the Lord’s new creation ecclesia is part of God’s eternal family. [According to Ephesians 3:15.]
-
The Lord Jesus Christ’s ecclesia is eternal and existed in heaven before being sent to earth. [According to Hebrews 12:22-24.]
-
Heaven and earth observation and work with the church on earth, which symbolizes God’s wisdom. [According to Ephesians 3:10, Revelation 2:1 and 3:14.]
-
That the Bible upon which the Christian faith is founded is written by prophets and apostles, consequently, these mantles are to be its primary teachers and clarifiers. [Luke 11:49, 24:44; Ephesians 2:20; 3:5; Revelation 18:20.]
-
That the New Testament, the anchor of the Christian faith and premise for Christian service, was written exclusively by apostles.
-
22. That divine order for the New Testament church requires reinstatement of apostles and prophets at the head of its government. [According to 1 Corinthians 12:28, 29.]
-
That the truly Bible-based Christian church is to be founded upon the ministries of God’s apostles and prophets with a full staff of Ephesians 4:11 ministers in attendance and partnership with ecclesia’s embassadorial contingent listed in 1 Corinthians 12:28. [According to Ephesians 2:20 and 3:5.]
-
God’s apostles and prophets must be trained to be thoroughly equipped for every good work in Jesus. [According to the Gospels record of Jesus Christ training and grooming the twelve.]
-
That as the Godhead’s offspring, the new creature in Jesus Christ is neither male nor female. [According to Galatians 3:28]
-
That God’s first begotten seeds, birth the born-again children of God. [According to Romans 8:14; 8:19; 1 John 3:1, 2]
-
That God’s begotten again offspring are born from above and not of the earth. [According to 1 Peter 1:4]
-
That Romans 8:19’s manifest children of God make them His apocalyptic elect.
-
That God’s offspring as specified in Scripture make them His pre-creation elect as they were in Christ before the foundation of the world—actually before He made anything else. [According to Ephesians 1:4]
-
That the Lord named His future offspring elect before the world called them Christian. [According to Matthew 13:20; 22, 27; Luke 18:7; Romans 8:33; Colossians 3:12; 2 Timothy 2:10; Titus 1:1; 1 Peter 1:2; 2:6]
-
That salvation prophesied in Ezekiel 36:24-26 correlates with John 3:5-8 and fore-described the born-again experience.
-
That salvation is more than a sinner’s prayer because, without repentance, there is no remission of sins. [According to Mark 1:4; Luke 1:77; Luke 3:3; Luke 24: 47; Acts 2:38; Hebrews 9:22; 10:18.]
-
The Gospel that Jesus brought to earth demands repentance for genuine and secure redemption.
-
The new birth does not automatically save the human soul; it must be converted and worked on until departure from this body. [According to Hebrews 10:39; 1 Peter 1:9; Philippians 22:12; Acts 2:27; Psalm 16:10.]
