Dotrinal Basis
Eglise Evangelique des Rachetes believes in the Holy Scriptures,the Old and the New Testaments, which are part of the biblical canon and are fully inspired.They are sole rule of authority in matters of faith and conduct(2 Timothy 3:16-17),(Psalms 19:8) It believes that the bible is the written revelation of God to man(1 Corinthians 2:7-14),(2 Peter 1:20,21) It believes that God spoke in his written word using men whom he chosen.
GOD the Father
The church believes in one God, the infinite, omniscient, and perfect Spirit in all his essence. He is
eternally in three persons:The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. He is the creator of heaven and
earth, the giver of all knowledge, author of all things visible and invisible(Genesis 1:1), (Genesis 1:26-28), (John 1:1-15), ( Deuteronomy 6:4), (Isaiah 45:5-7),(1 Cor 8:4).
We believe that God the Father is the first person of the trinity and arranges all things according to his own plan and grace:(Psalm 145:8-9),(1 Cor 8:6) creator of all things (Genesis 1:1-31),(Eph 3:9).
God the Son
The Church believes that Jesus Christ is the second person of the trinity. He possesses all divine qualities in him. He is equal and consubstential with the father, and co-eternal with him(John 10:30,John 14:9). We believe that through His Son Jesus Christ, God created the heaven and earth and all that his will dictates, and through him all things exist and function (1John 1:3),(Col 1:15-17). We believe in the incarnation. God became man. Jesus Christ retaining only his divine prerogatives, but relinguishing nothing in his essence, either in degree of kind (Phil 2:5-8),(Col 2:9).
Jesus Christ represents humanity and an indivisible unity(Micah 5:1),(John 5:23),(Col 2:9). We believe that Jesus Christ was born of the virgin Mary, that he was God incarnated, fully God and man. He lived a perfect life and died as sufficient atonement for humanity, and that the purpose of the incarnation was to reveal God, to redeem men, and to reign the kingdom of God. He rose from the death on the third day and he is now at the right of God, where he is the only mediator between God and humanity (Isaiah 7:14), (Luc 1:39), ( 1 Peter 2:24), (Mat 1:26-35), (John1:1), (Psalm 2:7), (Isaiah 9:5), (John 1 :29)
God the Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine person, eternal, uncreated, possessing the attributes of
personality and divinity. In all divine attributes, he is equal and consubstantial with the father and the
son.(Math 28:19) (1 Cor 12:4-6)
