Burnaby Christian Pentecostal Church

What We Believe

We believe the Holy Scriptures are given by inspiration of God¹, infallible, absolutely supreme and sufficient in authority in all matters of faith and practice².

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in the Persons of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the virgin birth³ of the Lord Jesus Christ, His sinless humanity and perfect life, the substitution sacrifice of His atoning death upon the cross⁴, His bodily resurrection⁵, His ascension to the right hand of the Majesty on high as our great High Priest⁶, and His personal coming again to establish His kingdom in righteousness and peace⁷.

We believe that justification is a judicial act of God by which the sinner is declared righteous solely on the basis of their acceptance of Christ as Saviour⁸, and that regeneration is a creative work of the Holy Spirit by which a person is born again and receives spiritual life⁹.

We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit¹⁰, the gifts of the Holy Spirit¹¹, and the divine healing of the human body¹².

We believe in the universal church which is the Body and Bride of Christ¹³, the Lord’s Supper¹⁴ and the water baptism by immersion for believers¹⁵.

We believe in the eternal state of righteous in the new heaven¹⁶ and the everlasting punishment of the unregenerate in the lake of fire¹⁷.
