I

Faith
Pleases God Church is an inter-denominational church,
ministering to those of any background who hunger for
a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and have a
desire to walk in faith and please God.
Our vision is to build a fellowship that will conquer
the Rio Grande Valley and the nations for the Kingdom
of God . Our purpose is to see people enter into the
Love of God through Jesus Christ, to know who they are
in Christ by the revealing of the Word of God, and to
experience power by the baptism of the Holy Ghost and
live in victory as they walk by their faith in God.
The
Vision:
For people to experience victory in life through faith
in God.
The
Mission:
To disciple the church in the Word of God to change
their world.
Our Statement of Faith:
God
is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He exists
in three personalities: the Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
Jesus
Christ is the Son of God. He lived a sinless human life
and offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the
sins of all people by dying on a cross. He arose from
the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over
sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s glory and
will return again someday to earth to reign as King
of Kings, and Lord of Lords.
The
Holy Spirit is present in the world to make men aware
of their need for Jesus Christ. He lives in every Christian
from the moment of salvation, providing power for living,
understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing
what is right.
The
baptism of the Holy Spirit is given to every believer
upon conversion and places them into the body of Christ;
the baptism in the Holy Spirit is an experience subsequent
to conversion that comes about by yielding the complete
person to the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The infilling
of the Holy Spirit manifests as: 1) an overwhelming
presence of God, 2) an evident transformation in the
lives and witness of the people, 3) an impetus for the
growth of the church, 4) an immediate evidence of speaking
in tongues, and 5) an empowerment to witness and a deeper
dimension of gratitude, humility, fruitfulness and operation
of the Holy Spirit’s gifts in their midst.
The
Bible is God’s Word to us. It was written by human
authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy
Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian
beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it
is the truth without any mixture of error.
People
are made in the spiritual image of God, to be like Him
in character. Although every person has tremendous potential
for good, all of us are marred by an attitude of disobedience
toward God called “sin”. This attitude separates
people from God and causes many problems in life.
Salvation
is God’s free gift to us but we must accept it.
We can never make up for our sin by good works. Only
by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of
forgiveness can anyone be saved from sin’s penalty.
When we turn from our self-ruled life to Jesus in faith
we are saved. Eternal life begins the moment one receives
Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
People
were created to exist forever. We will either exist
eternally separated from God by sin, or eternally with
God through forgiveness and salvation. The one who physically
dies in his sins without Christ is hopelessly and eternally
lost in the lake of fire and therefore has no further
opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting. Heaven
and the Lake of Fire are real places of eternal existence.
Baptism
in water is by immersion, is a direct commandment of
our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is
a symbol of the Christian’s identification with
Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection.
Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and
is wrought by the power of God through faith. It is
provided by the redemption of Christ, and it is the
privilege of every member of the church today.
