VineArts ~ Statement of Faith
We believe the One True and Living God, Whose Memorial Name
is YHVH, Yahweh, is eternally existent in Three Persons:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe Jesus Christ / Y'shua, our Lord, is fully God;
that He came in the flesh; that salvation through Him
is the only way to the Father and Eternal Life,
and that our faith must be in Jesus Christ and His substitutionary,
finished work on the Cross. That His sacrificial shedding of Blood
was and is Full Payment for all our sins - Past, Present and Future.
We believe the Holy Bible to be the Inspired, Infallible,
Inerrant, Authoritative Word of God.
We believe Jesus Christ is the Logos - the Living Word of God.
We believe Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church,
and His Body is composed of all men and women,
living and dead, who have been joined to Him
through saving faith and obedience.
The whole, undivided, unbroken Body of Christ
includes Believers/Saints of all nations, tribes, and tongues
throughout history who have covenanted to keep
the authentic faith as delivered once to the Apostles.
We believe the Holy Spirit has come to reveal
and glorify Jesus Christ to the world.
Only the Holy Spirit can draw people to Jesus Christ,
Convict of sins against God and Impart new life.
The Holy Spirit indwells all believers at the time of spiritual rebirth.
In response to seeking, He baptizes believers
with Power and Imparts Spiritual Gifts.
The Holy Spirit seals all believing hearts until the Day of Redemption.
We believe there is a real adversary, Satan, who was defeated
by Jesus Christ on the Cross of Calvary & we believe there is a real Hell.
We believe that Satan and his hosts and all humans who have
rejected the gift of Christ's salvation will be separated from
the presence of God and endure eternal punishment.
We believe the Consummation of all things includes:
the Glorious Appearing of Jesus Christ, the Resurrection of the dead,
the Translation of those who are alive and in Christ,
the unveiling of New Heavens and the New Earth and
the Fulfillment of Christ's Kingdom.
The Ecclesia … the One New Man … all called-out
Believing Jews and Gentiles in Jesus Christ…
will be given glorified bodies and will be in the Presence
of Our Father ~ Yahweh ~ and His Son ~ King Y'Shua
and will Live and Reign in the Kingdom,
giving Praise and Glory and Honor to Them Forever.
"No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love Him."
(1st Corinthians 2:9)
