WHAT WE BELIEVE
Grace Place is a Foursquare Church in compliance with the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel.

The four main pillars of the Foursquare church center around the belief that Jesus Christ is the Savior, the Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, The Healer and the Soon Coming King.

The structure of our church is centered around these four pillars. We focus on outreach and evangelism because Jesus is the Savior. We are committed to training and releasing disciples of Christ because Jesus is the Baptizer with the Holy Spirit. He comes to empower and gift us to be faithful witnesses in our world. We care for the needs of people because Jesus is our Healer. We are a congregation that actively, through Biblically based expressions, worship in our public gatherings and our private settings because Jesus is our Soon Coming King!

The Fall of Man
GENESIS 1:27; ROMANS 5:12

We believe that man, created in the image of God, by voluntary disobedience fell into the depths of sin and iniquity, bequeathing sin's nature and consequences to all mankind, with their accompanying loss of intended meaning and purpose.

The Eternal Godhead
1 JOHN 5:7

We believe that God is triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the Three are coexistent, coeternal, and equal in divine perfection.

The Fall of Man
GENESIS 1:27; ROMANS 5:12

We believe that man, created in the image of God, by voluntary disobedience fell into the depths of sin and iniquity, bequeathing sin's nature and consequences to all mankind, with their accompanying loss of intended meaning and purpose.

The Plan of Redemption
JOHN 3:16; TITUS 2:14

We believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, took our place, and with His life's blood purchased the pardon for all who believe in Him.

Salvation Through Grace
EPHESIANS 2:8

We believe that salvation is wholly through grace; that no human righteousness or merit can contribute to our receiving God's love and favor.

The New Birth
2 CORINTHIANS 5:17; GALATIANS 2:20

We believe that the change that takes place in people at conversion is a very real one; that having received righteousness in Christ and having received of His Spirit, people will have new desires, interests, and pursuits in life.

Daily Christian Life
2 CORINTHIANS 7:1

We believe that it is the will of God that those who have been born again grow in sanctification, become partakers of His holiness, and daily grow stronger in the faith, power, prayer, love, and service.

Water Baptism and the Lord's Supper
ROMANS 6:4; 1 CORINTHIANS 11:24-26

We believe that being baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is an essential response to Jesus'command, testifying to His lordship as Christ and King. We believe in observing the Lord's Supper, receiving the broken bread and the fruit of the vine with joy and faith as we partake anew of the life and triumph of Christ's Cross.

Baptism in the Holy Spirit
ACTS 1: 5-8; 2:4

We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit empowers believers to exalt Jesus, to live lives of holiness, and to be witnesses of God's saving grace; we expect the Spirit's incoming to be after the same manner as that in which He came upon believers in the days of the Early Church.

The Spirit-Filled Life
EPHESIANS 4:30-32; GALATIANS 5:16-25

We believe that it is the will of God that believers walk in the Spirit moment by moment, serving the Lord and living lives of patience, love, truth, sincerity, and prayer.

The Gifts and Fruit of the Spirit
1 CORINTHIANS 12:1-11; GALATIANS 5:22-25

We believe that the Holy Spirit bestows enabling ministry gifts upon believers, and that these gifts will build up the Body of Christ through edification and evangelism; as evidence of a Spirit-filled life, believers should show spiritual “ fruit” : love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance.

Moderation
COLOSSIANS 3:12-13; PHILIPPIANS 4:5

We believe a Christians'moderation should be obvious to others and that relationship with Jesus should never lead people into extremes of fanaticism; their lives should model that of Christ in uprightness, balance, humility, and self-sacrifice.

Divine Healing
MARK 16:17-18; JAMES 5:14-16

We believe that divine healing is the power of Jesus Christ to heal the sick in answer to the prayer of faith; He, who does not change, is still willing and able to heal the body, as well as the soul and spirit in answer to faith.

The Second Coming of Christ
MATTHEW 24:36-44; 1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-17

We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent; the certainty of His coming and the fact that no man knows the hour of His coming prompt our evangelistic efforts; that the Lord Himself will descend from Heaven, the dead in Christ shall rise, and the redeemed will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air.

Church Relationship
ACTS 16:5; HEBREWS 10:24

We believe that it is our sacred duty to identify ourselves with a congregation of believers with whom we can worship God, observe the ordinances of Christ, exhort and support one another, labor for the salvation of others, and work together to advance the Lord's Kingdom.

Civil Government
ACTS 4:18-20; ROMANS 13:1-5

We believe that civil government is by divine appointment and that civil laws should be upheld at all times except in things opposed to the will of God.

Judgment
REVELATION 20:11-2; 2 CORINTHIANS. 5:10

We believe that all shall stand before the judgment seat of Christ: the redeemed to be delivered unto everlasting life, and the unrepentant unto everlasting punishment.

Heaven
JOHN 14:2; REVELATION 7:15-17

We believe that heaven is the glorious habitation of the living God and the eternal home of born-again believers.

Hell
MATTHEW 13:41-42; REVELATION 20:10-15

We believe that hell is a place of darkness, deepest sorrow, and unquenchable fire, which was not prepared for man but for the devil and his angels; yet it will become the place of eternal separation from God for all who reject Christ as Savior.

Evangelism
JAMES 5:20; MARK 16:15

We believe that soul winning is the “ one big business” of the Church on earth, and that every hindrance to worldwide evangelism should be removed.

Tithing and Offerings
MALACHI 3:10; 1 CORINTHIANS 16: 1- 2

We believe that tithing and offerings are ordained of God to sustain His ministry, spread the Gospel, and release personal blessing.
