Core Beliefs
Core Beliefs
The following are the core beliefs of GlobeServe International based on the foundational truths taught in the bible. All of our teaching and ministry is rooted in and flows out of these biblical doctrines.
The Bible
We believe that the Bible is the verbally and plenary inspired Word of God, inerrant in its original manuscripts. The Bible is our supreme and final authority in faith and life. (II Timothy 3:16, II Peter 1:20, 21)
The Holy Spirit
We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit for all believers with the initial evidence of a transformed life or manifestation of the fruits of the Spirit in the life of all believers and a sign of speaking in tongues as one of the signs. (Joel 2:28-29 Acts 2:3,4,38-39; 10:44-46; 19:16; Romans 12:6-8; Galatians 5:22-23 and 1 Corinthians 12:8-11; 28-30)
We do not believe in the use of the anointing oil as doctrine for the New Testament Church and that Mark 6: 13; Luke 10: 34; James 5: 14 – 15 (which refer to the medicinal aspect rather than just a ceremonial) are not epistles to build doctrines around.
Repentance, Justification, and Sanctification
We believe that the Lord Jesus died for our sins according to the scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; that He arose victoriously from the grave on the third day; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood. (Isaiah 53; Matthew 20:28; John 3:16; Romans 3:24-26, 5:1; I Corinthians 15:3; II Corinthians 5:21; Ephesians 1:7; I John 2:2; Matthew 28:6; Romans 10:9; and I Corinthians 15:14)
Repentance, Justification, and Sanctification
We believe that those who partake of the Lord’s Supper should be born again believers, walking in fellowship with the Lord Jesus. One-week evening prayers should be done prior to the Lord’s Supper on the Sunday. (Acts 2:42-46; I Corinthians 11:23-29)
The One True God
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1, 26; Matthew 28:19, John 1:1, 3; 4:24; Acts 5:3; Romans 1:20; Ephesians 4:5,6; II Corinthians 13:14)
The Depravity of Man
We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also that spiritual death which is separation from God, and that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and become guilty sinners in thought, word, and deed. (Genesis 1:26, 27; 3:1-24; Romans 3:25; 5:12-18; I John 1:8).
Regular Meetings of Believers
We believe that as Christians we are to meet together regularly for worship, ordinances, and the encouragement of each other.
(Hebrews 10:24, 25 Acts 2:42, 46, 47a)
Tithes and Offering
We believe in tithing as a Biblical command (Malachi 3:10) and we believe in liberality of giving as spelt out in II Corinthians chapter 9.
The Second Coming
We believe in the personal and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ
(Acts 1:11; I Thessalonians 4:16-17)
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting joy of the saved and the everlasting conscious punishment of the lost. (John 5:28, 29; I Corinthians 15; II Corinthians 5:10; Matthew 25:31-46; Revelation 20:4-6; 11-15)
