What We Believe

hands hope

The African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church professes the historical faith in God,

who by Himself – outpouring, was manifest incarnate in Jesus Christ for our salvation. By God’s grace and the power of His Holy Spirit all believers become the new humanity. The incarnation having reached its completion in Jesus, who is the Christ, is continuing in the Church and is overcoming the calamity of the human predicament. We strive in the hope that the Church will grow from sinful existence through purification to oneness with God.

Our Heritage in doctrine and our present theological task demand that we renew our faith and understanding of the love of God, our Father, and the Lordship of His Son, Jesus. We believe that all who have faith in Him will be empowered and invigorated by the Holy Spirit to risk all for the reconciling work and fulfillment of the Kingdom of God.

Scripture

We believe the Holy Bible is the inspired Word of God, providing the complete revelation of His will for salvation and Christian living.

Salvation

We affirm salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone, whose sacrifice offers redemption, forgiveness, and eternal life to all who believe.

Discipleship

We commit to growing in Christ-likeness through prayer, Bible study, worship, and service, guided by the Holy Spirit.
