beliefs
JESUS
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal son of God who was fully God and fully man. He was born of the virgin Mary and lived a complete sinless life.
In his ministry he preached the gospel, performed miracles, and left his greatest work by dying on the cross for the sins of mankind.
By his blood being shed he paid the price for the sin of mankind. He was raised bodily from the dead by and was seen by the disciples and others and is now in heaven on the right side of the Father. One day he will return from heaven for his church.
Mat 1:23 Heb 7:26 Acts 10:38 1 Pet 2:22 1 Cor 15:3 1 Cor 15:4 Luk. 24:39 Acts 1:9 Phil 2:9-11
salvation
Man was born into a sinful life and needs a savior to save him. Salvation comes by having faith in Jesus dying in the cross for the forgiveness of sins.
This comes first by grace and there are no deeds that any person can do to be saved. Those who are saved have turned from their sins and now have the witness of the Holy Spirit.
Rom 6:23 Esp. 2:8,9 Rom 10:9,10 Rom 8:16 Luk. 24:47 Joh 3:16
holy spirit
The Holy Spirit is God’s spirit living inside a Christian. This happens once a person accepts Jesus as their Lord (master) in life. We also believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit which was experienced in Acts and the first century church.
The baptism of the Holy Spirit opens the gifts of the spirit and enables the Christian to be a greater witness for Jesus. The Holy Spirit enables Christians to live a saved and sanctified life of power and most of all love.
Acts 2:1-4 Acts 1:4,8 John 1:12,13 Esp. 1: 13,14 Acts 8:14-16
the church
The church is the body of Christ. It is the spiritual organization of God to reach the world. A corporate body that worships God. A place for the believers to be perfected, equipped, and encouraged.
We believe in the operation of the gifts of the spirit in worship. The power of the gifts in signs and wonders assist in evangelizing the world. Coming together as the local church or assembly is the purpose to build the body of Christians.
Esp. 4:11-16 Esp. 2:22 Mat 28:19-20 1 Cor. 12:13 Mar. 16:15-20 1 Cor. 2:12-14 1 Cor. 14:12

OUR PAStOR
Pastor Jaison is the son of a pastor who lost his way as a young adult. Through life’s problems Jaison became frustrated with life and came to crossroads with the Holy Spirit. As he heard the voice of God one night, he chose to follow the abundant life of Jesus Christ. 20 years later Jaison has never looked back.
In 2015 Jaison became a Lead Pastor in Buffalo, New York and by God’s power and love worked within the church to heal broken hearts and grow a dying ministry.
Three years later, God gave him a dream to plant a church in Downtown Toronto. The vision involved a multicultural church that is innovative in reaching people but centered in discipleship and growth development.
He pastors the church with his wife Dyleiby and their son Juan.
