The Refuge Ministries - "Comforting Lives..."
At The Refuge Ministries, At The Refuge Ministries, our beliefs are rooted in God's Word and centered on Jesus Christ. Here is the foundation of our faith:
We believe there is one God, the Creator of heaven, earth, and all that exists-revealed as God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. Three in One, perfect in unity and glory.
God created mankind in His own image.
But through the disobedience of Adam and Eve, sin entered the world.
All humanity inherited this sinful nature and continues to choose sin, facing its consequences. Therefore, every person needs redemption.
In His immeasurable love, God sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to redeem the world.
Jesus died on the cross to pay the full penalty of our sins, rose again, ascended to heaven, and promised to return.
He has given us His Holy Spirit to guide, comfort, and empower us.
Anyone who believes in Jesus and repents receives forgiveness and eternal life - regardless of tribe, language, background, or nationality.
Every believer is called to obey the Lord in water baptism, publicly declaring their faith and becoming a disciple of Jesus - part of His family, the Church.
Followers of Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit, will:
They fulfil the good works they were created for.
The Church is central to God's purpose today.
It is not a building, but the family of God - a community where His Spirit dwells.
Through the Church, God displays His wisdom to the world and to the spiritual realms. Christ is building His Church and His Kingdom, and nothing- not even Satan - can stop it.
The Church is called to:
We believe the Great Commission is a perpetual command.
Empowered by the Holy Spirit, the Church carries the authority of Jesus to:
Christ's plan for expanding His Kingdom is through the multiplication of churches -communities of believers committed to growth and mission.
Every believer is called to fellowship with the Church and regularly participate in the Lord's Supper -remembering our identity with Christ and His Body until He returns.
We believe in the glorious return of Jesus Christ.
He will judge the living and the dead, reward according to His righteousness, and establish His everlasting Kingdom.
Until His return, the Church is called to:
For I Am the LORD... The word which I speak will come to pass; It will no more be postponed; Ezekiel 12:25
