Solid Rock Bible Faith

The Holy Spirit worked with the Father and the Son to create the world. The Father gave His Spirit to make us like His Son, Jesus Christ. The Jesus Christ we know is Jesus in the power of the Holy Spirit. He made a wonderful promise in John 14:16-17: "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Counselor to be with you forever — the Spirit of Truth. The world cannot accept Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you know Him, for He lives with you and will be in you."The Holy Spirit is to be with us forever. He is not known or received by everyone, but only by those who are prepared for Him. The Holy Spirit shows us how wrong our sins are. He helps us to accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour. He completely changes our lives. This is called being converted or born again. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died as a substitutionary sacrifice for the sins of all men according to Scriptures, and all who receive Him are justified on the grounds of His shed blood (1 Cor. 15:3; 2 Cor. 5:21; Heb. 2:9; 1 John 2:2; Rom. 3:21-26). We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord Jesus Christ; in His bodily ascension into heaven; and in His present life there as High Priest for us (Matt. 28:1-10; Acts. 1:9; Heb. 7:25-28 We believe in the imminent return of Christ prior to the inauguration of Daniel's seventieth week, at which time all believers in Christ will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air and be kept from the promised period of divine wrath upon the earth ( Dan. 9:24-27; 1 Thes. 4:14-17; 1 Cor. 15:51-53; 1 Thes. 5:9; Rom. 5:9).
