In order for each person, church, or any group or organization to become or remain a member of the IFCK, the following Ordinance of Faith must be followed and signed.
(1) Bible
We believe that the entirety of each of the Old and New Testaments was written by the inspiration of God, and that the original text is free from errors and is completely infallible, and is the final authority of our faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16, 17; 2 Pet 1:20, 21; Matt 5:18; John 16:12, 13)
(2) God
We believe in the Triune God, who exists forever as the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). We believe that the Trinity are the same eternal beings, the same essence, the same power and glory, the same attributes, and perfection. (Deut. 6:4; 1 Tim. 2:5).
(3) saint
1) We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God and has the same definite essence, the same attributes, and the same perfection as the Father and the Holy Spirit. We also believe that Jesus Christ is the true God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, came as a man, and came to reveal God, to reveal Himself, and to save sinners (John 1:1,2,14; Luke 1:35). ).
2) We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died on the cross as a ransom sacrifice for all mankind, and that the atonement of Christ, which fully accomplished the redemption and justification of all who trust in Him, was confirmed from His death by literal bodily resurrection. Believe.
(Romans 3:24, 25; 4:25; Eph 1:7; 1 Tim 4:10; Heb 2:9; 1 Pet 1:3-5; 2:24; 2 Pet 2:1).
3) We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God, interceding and prophesying as our High Priest. (Acts 1:9,10; Hebrews 9:24; 7:25; Romans 8:34; 1 John 2:1,2)
(4) The Holy Spirit and His Work
1) We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and that he baptizes, seals, and indwells every believer in Christ through regeneration and in Christ (John 16:8). -11; 1 Corinthians 3:16; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 1:13,14).
2) We believe that the Holy Spirit is the heavenly teacher who guides the believer into all truth, and that being filled with the Holy Spirit is the privilege of every believer and is without righteousness (John 16:13; 1 John 2:20, 27; Ephesians 5:18).
(5) The Fall of Man
We believe that man was created in God's image, and that the sin of Adam caused mankind to fall, and by nature became sinners and separated from God; They are completely corrupted and believe that they cannot heal their own soul condition. (Genesis 1:26, 27; Romans 3:22,23; 5:12; Ephesians 2:1-3, 12)
(6) Salvation
We believe that salvation is a gift of God to man through personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, who, through His grace, shed His precious blood for the forgiveness of our sins on the cross of Calvary. (Eph 2:8-10; John 1:12; Ephesians 1:7; 1 Pet 1:18,19)
(7) Guarantee of eternal life of believers
1) We believe that all redeemed saints, once saved, are preserved in the power of God and are eternally secure in Christ. (John 6:37-40; 10:27-30; Romans 8:1, 38, 39; 1 Corinthians 1:4-8; 1 Pet 1:5).
2) We believe that it is the privilege of the believer to rejoice in the assurance of salvation through the evidence of God's Word. However, we believe that the Word of God clearly prohibits the use of Christian freedom as an opportunity for the indulgence of one's own flesh. (Romans 13:13,14; Galatians 5:13; Titus 2:11-15).
(8) The two essences of the believer
We believe that each saved believer possesses two essences that enable them to triumph from the old man to the new man through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
(Rom 6:13; 8:12,13; Gal 5:16-25; Eph 4:22-24; Col 3:10; 1 Pet 1:14-16; 1 John 3:5-9).
(9) break
We believe that it is God that every believer must live in such a manner that he does not engage in acts that are dishonorable to the Lord Jesus Christ, and that he cut off from any religious or religious apostasy, from enjoying, doing, or uniting with all worldly and sinful things. believe in the command of
(2 Timothy 3:1-5; Romans 12:1,2; 14:13; 1 John 2:15-17; 2 John 9-11; 2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1)
(10) Mission
We believe that it is the duty of the believer to bear witness with our lives and to the truth of the Bible and to preach the gospel to all mankind (Mark 16:15; Matt 28:18-20; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 5:19). , 20).
(11) Ministry and Spiritual Gifts
1) We believe that God has the sovereignty to give all his gifts; that the gifts of evangelists, pastors and teachers are sufficient to perfect the saints in this age; We believe that speaking in tongues and the work of signs and miracles gradually disappeared as the New Testament was completed and the authority of the Bible was established.
(1 Corinthians 12:4-11; 1 Corinthians 13:8-10; 2 Corinthians 12:12; Ephesians 4:7-12).
2) We believe that God hears prayers of faith and helps those who are sick and suffering according to His will (John 15:7; 1 John 5:14,15). However, before the completion of the revelation of the Word, We believe that supernatural gifts such as the supernatural events of the Old Testament, the revelations or prophecies of the Acts of the New Testament, dreams, angelic visits, visions, hearing voices, performing miracles, and healing will not appear the same as at the time after the completion of the revelation of the Word.
(Rev. 22:18-!9 ; 1 Corinthians 13:8-10)
(12) Church
1) We believe that the Church, the body and bride of Christ, is a spiritual organic organization made up of all born-again people of this generation.
2) We believe that the establishment and survival of local churches is clearly taught and defined in the New Testament.
(Acts 14:27; 20:17, 28-32; 1 Tim. 3:1-13; Tit 1:5-11).
3) We believe that the local church is an institution that exercises autonomy without any external authority or control.
(Acts 13:1-4; 15:19-31; 20:28; Ro 16:1,4: 1 Corinthians 3:9, 16; 5:4-7,13; 1 Pet 5:1-4)
4) We believe that believers' baptism and the Lord's Supper are the means of biblical testimony in the church age.
(Mt 28:19,20; Acts 2:41,42; 18:8; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
(13) Responsibilities of the age ordained by God
We believe that the Bible, interpreted in its natural and literal sense, either reveals God-ordained dispensations, or rules of life that define the responsibilities of men through the ages. These dispensations are not paths of salvation, but rather are divinely ordained stewardship by which God guides men according to His purposes. These three are the Age of Law, the Age of the Church, and the Age of Millennium, which are revealed in detail in the Bible.
(John 1:17; 1 Corinthians 9:17; 2 Corinthians 3:9-18; Gal 3:13-25; Eph 1:10; 3:2-10; Col 1:24,25; Heb 7:19; Revelation 20 :2-6).
(14) Satan
We believe that Satan is a person, the culprit of sin, the source of the fall of man, the openly proclaimed enemy of God, and the one who will be thrown into the lake of fire at the end of the day to eternal punishment
(Job 1:6,7; Isaiah 14:12-17; Matt 4:2-11, 25:41; Revelation 20:10)
(15) The Second Coming of Christ
We believe that the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ will be instantaneous for His redeemed, at a time determined by Christ Himself and of God, and that it is the "blessed hope" of His Second Coming before the Tribulation and Millennial Kingdom; We believe in establishing a millennial kingdom with His saints after His Second Coming on this earth. We believe in the public second coming of Jesus, the rapture of the saints, and the Second Coming of Jesus on the earth.
(1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Zechariah 14:4-11; Rev 19:11-16, 20:1-6; 1 Thessalonians 1:10; 5:9; Rev 3:10).
(16) Eternal Life
1) We believe in the bodily resurrection of all people, we believe in the eternal life of the saved, and we believe in eternal judgment and eternal punishment for the unsaved (Matthew 25:46; John 5:28,29; 11:25,26). ; Revelation 20:5,6,12,13).
2) We believe that the saved, when they die, their soul departs from the body and goes to the Lord, where they live consciously and happily and await the first resurrection, the union of spirit, soul and body, where they will be glorified with the Lord forever (Luke) 23:43; Revelation 20:4-6; 2 Corinthians 5:8; Phil 1:23; 3:21; 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17).
3) After the death of the souls of unbelievers, we will suffer consciously until the second resurrection, our soul and body will be united again and we will stand on the Great White Throne Judgment, and we will not disappear, but be thrown into the lake of fire as a conscious eternal punishment. believe to be thrown
(Luke 16:19-26; Matt 25:41-46; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9; Jude 6,7; Mark 9:43-48; Revelation 20:11-15).
Chapter 2: The Movement Against Right Faith According to the Teachings of the Bible
1) A global ecclesial movement that transcends denominations (Ecumenism)
This movement is an attempt to systematically unite all Christian groups, ultimately uniting all religions systematically.
This movement is being conducted by the World Council of Churches (WCC) and its affiliated Christian organizations.
2) Ecumenical Evangelism
This movement seeks to promote the gospel by yokeing fundamentalists who are rooted in the teachings of the Bible with liberal theologians, Roman Catholics, or other Christian groups with different views and teachings from the Bible.
3) Neo-Orthodoxy
This is a theological movement that asserts that: by speaking on the one hand the need for a transcendent God, a finite and sinful man, a supernatural God's revelation of truth, using evangelical terminology, but departing from orthodox biblical teaching. .
It is a movement that accepts higher critiques of the Bible that are detrimental to its teachings, denies the inerrancy of the historical revelation of the Bible, bases religious experience on the ground of truth, and abandons important fundamental Christian teachings.
4) New Evangelicalism (Neo-Evangelicalism, New Consevatism)
This is a movement that embraces and communicates with followers of liberal theology within evangelicalism. The substance of this is a weak and obscure movement in teaching with an emphasis on the social application of the gospel on the following subjects: the inspired Bible, biblical creation, eschatology, God's revealed economy, severing or uncompromising will be. It also attempts to embrace the biblical Christian faith, but it also errs in misleading biblical teaching by attempting to embrace it as modern thinking.
We believe that these movements mentioned above are not in line with the Word of God and the beliefs of the IFCK, and are against the work of God.
