What We Believe

The following are the core beliefs of ACTS Ministries Online | Agape Community Temple of Servants based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.

Our chief aim is to glorify our Saviour, even Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works; that we should show forth the praises of Him who hath called us out of darkness into His marvelous light; and that we may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom we shine as lights in the world, holding forth the Word of Life, to give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide their feet into the way of peace. (See Titus 2:13, 14:1; 1 Peter 2:9; Philippians 2:15, 16; Luke 1:79)
Our duty is to lift the fallen; visit the sick; strengthen the weak; encourage the faint-hearted; comfort the feeble-minded; point the lost to the way of salvation and urge all believers to seek a spirit-filled life (Ephesians 5:18; Acts 19:1-16) and prepare for the coming of the Lord. (James 1:27; 1 Thessalonians 5:4; Mark 16:15-18; Matthew 25:1-13).
Moreover it is our indispensable duty, as partakers of the “royal priesthood” (1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 1:6; 5:10), to offer supplications, prayer, intercessions, and giving thanks for all men, for kings, presidents, governors, magistrates, and all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in all Godliness and honesty; (1 Timothy 2:14; Romans 13:1-14) and to submit ourselves “to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake,” whether it be king, as supreme, or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by Him for the punishment of the evil doers, and for the praise of them that do well, so long as these ordinances do not infringe upon the liberty of service toward God according to the dictation of the heart or conscience (See 1 Peter 2:13-17; Titus 3:1-12; Matthew 22:21)

God has revealed himself to us through his son, Jesus Christ, who is the visible image of the invisible God, the holy scriptures, and through all of creation itself.

Humans, both male and female, were created in God's image for His glory. The first humans, Adam and Eve, were created without sin and appointed as caretakers of the rest of God's creations.

When Adam and Eve chose not to obey God, they ceased to be what they were made to be and became distorted images of God. This caused them to fall out of fellowship with God, and fractured all of creation ever since that time.

Jesus Christ came to reconcile us with God. He lived a life without sin and willingly died on the cross to pay the penalty for our transgressions. God raised him from the dead and now, by grace, offers as a free gift eternal life to all who follow Christ, by faith, as their Lord and Savior. That is why salvation can be found in Christ alone.

The Church is meant to be the visible body of Christ, sent into the world to glorify God and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ is returning one day to judge both the living and the dead and to usher in the fullness of God's kingdom on earth.
