STATEMENT OF FAITH What We Believe
„„ The Bible is the divinely inspired Word of God.
„„ In the triune nature of God: the Father, the Son and the
Holy Spirit.
„„ All have sinned and come short of the glory of God
and are in need of salvation. Salvation has been
provided through Jesus Christ for all men.
„„ The infilling of the Holy Spirit is an experience
subsequent to salvation and that it is the will of God
that all be filled.
„„ Healing is provided in the redemptive work of Christ
and is available to every believer.
„„ The church consists of all those who have received
Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
„„ There shall be a bodily resurrection for the just
and unjust.
„„ In the personal, visible, imminent return of Jesus Christ.
„„ In Water Baptism and the observance of the
Lord’s Supper.
OUR VISION MASTER PLAN
„„ Open Pistis Schools of
Ministry/churches in Europe
and Africa
„„ Open a catechism program
for laymen
„„ Open a ministers’
training center
„„ Open an Operation Blessing
Center, providing food and
clothing to the poor
„„ Establish a 24-hour crisis
telephone Prayer Center
„„ Be a church home for all
people of every race, creed,
and national origin
„„ Effectively minister to the
sheep/lambs of WOFICC
„„ Develop saints to do the
work of the ministry
„„ Financially support other
ministries
„„ Establish Word-based
ministries in urban cities
„„ Develop churches
throughout Metropolitan
Detroit, Michigan and the
United States
