Four Cornerstones
The bedrock of our faith that sets us apart. They are represented in the four stylized portraits of Jesus (the Alpha and Omega) in our club logo.
Our Lord Jesus Christ Saves
We believe that Jesus was sent to bridge the great gap between God and mankind through His sacrifice on the cross. This salvation is received by: Admitting that we are separated from God, Believing in His sacrifice, Confessing our sins and asking Him to forgive us, and Committing ourselves to a lifelong relationship with Him as our Lord and Savior.
Our Lord Jesus Christ Heals
We believe that Jesus is the same, yesterday, today, and forever. As such, His power can and will deliver people from their infirmities today and tommorow just as it did in the past.
Our Lord Jesus Christ Baptizes
We believe that Jesus baptizes His believers in the Holy Spirit today just as He did in the book of Acts.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is Coming Again
We believe that Jesus is returning from heaven to catch up (rapture) His believers who have died, together with those who are alive, to be with Him forever.
Twelve Columns
The Colonnade that traverses seamlessly through the bedrock to support our faith. They are the very veins of our monolithic club house of faith.
God, Not Man, Inspired the Old and New Testaments
We believe that God verbally inspired the Scriptures and that they are His infallible revelation to man.
The Creator Exists as One God in Three Persons
We believe that God is the Creator of the Universe and that He exists as a Trinity. That is, God exists as one Being in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The Diety of Our Lord Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus is God in human form. This truth is witnessed by: the Messianic prophecies in Scriptures, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His sacrifice on the cross, His bodily resurrection from the dead, His position at the right hand of God the Father and His testimony as the "I Am" and "Alpha and Omega."
The Creation and Fall of Man
We believe that mankind was created by God sinless in the Beginning. However, man willfully sinned and introduced death penalities on the Human Race: a physical death and a supernatural death - the great gap between God and man.
The Orders of Water Baptism and Communion
We believe that Jesus wants all His believers to be baptized into Him by immersion in water. Water Baptism serves as a public sign of repentance to God and faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
We believe that Jesus wants all His believers to remember His sacrifice through His Supper until He comes again.
The Initial Witness of the Lord's Baptism
We believe that the initial witness of the Lord's Baptism in the Holy Spirit is speaking in other languages as the Holy Spirit enables.
The Setting Apart of Believers
We believe that believers in Jesus are supernaturally set apart (sanctified) from evil and dedicated unto God. In the natural, this sanctification is witnessed by an increasingly loving and holy relationship with God and people.
The Church and Her Ministry
We believe that all members of the Body of Christ are called to ministry. All members are to minister worship unto God with all their heart, mind, and strength. All members are to minister love unto people by ministering unto them as they would want to be ministered to.
The Church and Her Great Commission
We believe that the calling of the Church is to fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples of all nations and preparing them for service.
The Millenial Reign of our Lord Jesus Christ on Earth
We believe that Jesus will return with His believers to establish a 1,000-year reign of peace on earth.
The Final Judgement of Man
We believe that after the millenial reign of Christ, a final judgment of the wicked will come. Their sentence will be eternal punishment in a Lake of Fire.
The New Heavens and the New Earth
We believe that after the Final Judgement of Man, God will refine the known universe by fire, and create a new heaven, a new earth, and a new eternal existence for those who have accepted Him.
The Four Cornerstones and Twelve Columns compose Club Alpha Omega's Sixteen Foundations of Faith. They are represented in the sixteen corners of the four bases in our club logo.
