The Gospel Truth Ministry will always stand for Biblical ministry and charismatic worship. These constants will continue to determine who we are. First and foremost we hold up the Bible as our ultimate authority and guide for faith and life, believing it to be the inspired Word of God containing all things necessary for salvation. Furthermore, as we preach, minister, teach, share, witness, and live our lives, we seek to be faithful accordingly to God, the Father; Jesus Christ, the Son; the Holy Spirit; and the Holy Scriptures. |

We Hold Up The Bible As Our Ultimate Authority |
|
There have been times when we, as God's people, seemed to be moving away from the traditional ways of worship and ministry, but the Lord always brings us back to appreciate the strengths of our heritage. Our orderly practices and procedures have been a great stabilizer in our Christian growth. Our appreciation of church history keeps us from repeating some of the Church's past mistakes regarding spiritual gifts and prophetic "revelations"; however, we are free to return to our roots, that is the New testament Church and the ways being part of the Church as defined by the Book of Acts in the Bible.
We appreciate the Holy Eucharist as
the sacrament of the Lord's presence among us, but recognize there are many
ways to worship God and receive His Sacraments and
We will never be a revisionist Christian ministry, but strive to be evangelical in nature seeking the lost desiring that they become part of the Kingdom of God as He has called us to be, doing our part to fulfill the Great commission. All of these things come together to make us a strong vital people who are growing in faith in the Lord. We pray that we never lose sight of three sources that feed and strengthen us, as defined by the Bible: His life, His authority, His guidance. They all work together to give a wholeness and integrity here at the Gospel Truth Ministry, forming a so-to-speak three-legged wisdom-stool which we choose to sit upon to listen to the voice of God. We firmly believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible; and in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, Very God of Very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit and was made man, and was crucified under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father. And He shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead, whose kingdom shall have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets. And we believe in one Christian Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins. And we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come; and, we believe in healings from God and the fullness of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, and that they are just as viable today as they were yesterday.
