What We Believe

The following are the core beliefs of
Gospel Mission Worship Center.

The Bible is the authoritative Word of God. It alone is the final authority for determining all doctrinal truth and is inspired, infallible and inerrant.
 Proverbs 30:5; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21

Trinity: There is one God, eternal existent in three persons: Father, Son (Jesus) and Holy Spirit. These are co-equal and co-eternal. Genesis1:26; Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19; Luke 1:35; Hebrews 3:7-11; I John 5:7


Jesus Christ is God the Son, the second person of the Trinity. On earth, Jesus was 100% man and 100% God. He is the only man ever to have lived a sinless life. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the cross for human kind and, thus, atoned for our sins through the shedding of his blood. He rose from the dead on the third day, ascended to the right hand of the Father and will return again in power and glory. John 1:1, 14; 20:28; Philippians 2:5-6; I Timothy 2:5; 3:16


Jesus Christ was conceived by God the Father through the Holy Spirit in the virgin Mary's womb; therefore He is the Son of God. Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18, 23-25; Luke 1:26-35

We are saved by God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ. Salvation is a gift from God and cannot be earned by good works or self effort. The gift of salvation is available to all people and must be accepted by each individual person according to the operation of their free will given by God. Our salvation is eternally secure in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. Romans 10:9-10; Acts 16:31; Galatians 2:16; Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5; Hebrews 9:22

The Holy Spirit is manifested through a variety of spiritual gifts to build and sanctify the church, demonstrate the validity of the Resurrection and confirm the power of the Gospel. All believers are commanded to earnestly desire the manifestation of the gifts in their lives. These gifts always operate in harmony with the Scriptures and should never be used in violation of biblical parameters. Romans 12:4-8; I Corinthians 12:1-31; 14:1-40; Ephesians 4:11-16; II Timothy 1:5-16; I Peter 4:10

Jesus Christ was physically resurrected from the dead in a
glorified body three days after his death on the cross. As a result,
both the saved and the lost will be resurrected; they that are saved
to the resurrection of life, and they that are lost to the resurrection of
eternal damnation. Luke 24:1-16, 36, 39; John 2:19-21; 20:26-28;
Acts 24:15; 1 Corinthians 15:35-44; Philippians 1:21-23; 3:21

Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return in the sky to remove all believers in an event called the "rapture". After a period of Tribulation on the earth, He will establish His kingdom. This will occur at a date undisclosed by Scripture. Matthew 24:30-35; 26:63-64; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 1:7
