What We Believe
Our commission is to walk in the God-given power and authority, to speak and declare the truth and the Word of God over our life, our family, our loved ones, this city, this nation and our world. (Luke 10:19, Job 22:28)
We believe that we are seated with Jesus in heavenly places. That means we hold “dual citizenship” in heaven and in earth. As the church, we take our place and fill the gap for our city, and this world, decreeing and declaring what we’re going to see. (Ephesians 2:6, 2 Thessalonians 2:7) It means aligning ourselves with the destiny God has destined for us from the beginning of time.
“We are the light in this world. As the world gets darker, the light of God shines brighter.”
The Foundational Truths
Life Center is a part of the United Pentecostal Church (UPC) organization and stands firmly on the foundational truth.
one God
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as Father; through His Son, in redemption; and as the Holy Spirit, by emanation. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man. (See Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16.)
the bible
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See II Timothy 3:15-17.)
the gospel
The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:8; I Peter 4:17) by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial), and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (resurrection). (See I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4.)
sin and salvation
Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (See Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9.)
christian living
As Christians, we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today. (See Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10.)
the future
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death. (See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)
