OUR PURPOSE

We desire to provide a stream of hope for our region. By doing this, people will experience God's love and recognize that Jesus offers them life in abundance.

All who accept this life will be made whole and they will receive new power for each day. This power will help them - even in the dry times - to remain strong and unwavering.


DOCTRINE
The foundational doctrines of the International Protestant Fellowship Church, Donaueschingen.


The Bible is the only inspired, inerrant and trustworthy word of God. (II Timothy 3:16)

There is only one God. He reveals Himself in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19)

Jesus Christ is unique:
We believe in the divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ; in His virgin birth; in His sinless life; in His miracles; in His vicarious, atoning death; in His physical resurrection; in His ascent to heaven to the right hand of the Father and in His personal, future return to this Earth in power and glory where He will reign for a thousand years. (John 1:1)

There is a blessed hope: the glorious appearance of Jesus Christ. We believe that His church will be raptured when He returns. (I Thessalonians 4:17, Titus 2:13)

There is only one path that leads to forgiveness of sins: repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. (John 14:6)

The new birth and regeneration through the Holy Spirit are absolutely necessary in order to be saved. (Titus 3:5, John 3:3-5)

Baptism by immersion, after one has accepted Jesus as Savior, is an important testimony that one identifies himself with Christ. Baptism shows that the believer is ready to die to self and that he has a new life in Christ. (Matthew 28:19)

The redeeming work of Jesus Christ on the cross provides physical healing for the body. (I Peter 2:24)

The baptism and gifts of the Holy Spirit are for all believers who obey God. (Acts 11:15-16)

The power of the Holy Spirit enables the Christian to lead a holy life. (Galatians 5:16-25)

There will be a resurrection of the saved to eternal life and of the lost to eternal damnation. (Revelation 20:11-15)
