Core Doctrine
Visionaries of Christ Ministries holds to what we believe as four imperatives witnessed in God’s work today:
- Salvation
- Divine Healing
- Baptism in the Holy Spirit
- Second Coming
The doctrine of Salvation forms the core of our Christian faith by proclaiming God’s victory over sin in our lives. This truth results in deliverances, healings and restored lives. Whether a new member or a mature Christian, every believer should have a clear understanding of salvation and the difference this truth makes in our lives and churches.
Resources in Scripture
Matthew 27, Mark 15, Luke 23, Acts 4:12, Acts 8:26-39, John 3, John 19, Romans 5:8-11, Romans 6:23, Romans 8:16, Romans 10:9-13, Ephesians 2:8,9, Titus 2:11,12
Wherever Jesus went, He ministered with compassion and healed the sick. Christ’s example showed an interconnection with salvation as many believed following their healing.
Our Lord continues to heal today and it is vital that the church preach, teach and practice this biblical truth. Scriptures command believers to pray in faith and trust God for the outcome.
Resources in Scripture
Isaiah 53:4,5, Isaiah 61:1, Matthew 4:23, 24, Matthew 9:35, Matthew 18:16,17, Mark 1:34, Luke 4:18, 19, Luke 6:19, Luke 9:6, 11, John 5:1-9, John 5:14, James 5:14-16, Hebrews 4:5
The doctrine of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is our distinctive. This truth explains the passion and power of our witness. Jesus promised His followers they would receive power from on high so that they would be His witnesses. We believe this truth is just as relevant today as our Fellowship continues to take the gospel message around the globe.
Resources in Scripture
Acts 1:4, Acts 2:4, Acts 8:12-17, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 11:14-16, Acts 15:7-9, Luke 24:49, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31
With the world experiencing natural disasters, economic downturns and increasing uncertainties on many fronts, the doctrine of Christ’s Second Coming is more relevant than ever. Believers must rest in the certainty of the imminent return of our Lord and share this hope with others.
