I.B.O.C Inspiring Body of Christ.
I am a strong African American Young Woman with goals and huge dreams. I am a woman of God and its God only in who I fear. No weapons formed against me shall prosper.What We BelieveI BELIEVE in the one true and living God who exists as Father-Our Creator, Jesus-Our Savior, and Holy Spirit-Our Comforter.
(John 1:1-2,14; John 10:30)I BELIEVE in His virgin birth, sinless life, powerful miracles, and sacrificial death, and His bodily resurrection.
(I Corinthians 15:3-4)I BELIEVE that Christ's shed blood took the penalty of sin and gave us the right to eternal life. Christ's body took all our sicknesses & diseases and that by His stripes we are healed.
(John 1:29; Isaiah 53:5)I BELIEVE all scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, for training in righteousness.
(2 Timothy 3:16)I BELIEVE that every Christian has been given a measure of faith by God, which is how we are justified, what we live by, how we believe in Him, how we please Him and how we receive from Him.
(Romans 1:17; 5:1; 12:3)I BELIEVE Christians can be filled with the Holy Spirit who then dwells within us, leads, helps, guides, and seals us in Christ.
(Ephesians 1:13)I BELIEVE that the Christian's enemy is not that of flesh and blood but Satan and his demonic spirits which aim to steal, kill and destroy God's people and vision. His work will end and he will be thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone with the beast and false prophets; and tormented day and night forever and ever.
(2 Corinthians 10:4; Revelation 20:10)I BELIEVE that Christians have the benefit of abundant life on earth - being whole and complete through God.
(John 10:10)I BELIEVE that water baptism does not save us from sin but is an outward sign of an inward relationship with God. We are no longer slaves to sin. Holy Communion is an ordinance that reminds us that His blood offers forgiveness for sin and that His body was broken for our healing.
(Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12)I BELIEVE that God works in the earth through the Body of Christ and that the Body of Christ is empowered by His Holy Spirit.
(Acts 1:8)I BELIEVE the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God and the dead in Christ shall rise first. We who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.
(I Thessalonians 4:16-17)I BELIEVE in the second coming of our Lord with His saints and our rule upon the earth and the ultimate victory of the eternal Kingdom of God.
(Revelation 21:1-3)
