A Bible Believing Church

What the Foursquare believes

The Foursquare Church believes in the following: [12]

  • The Bible as the inspired word of God
  • The Trinity
  • The atoning death of Christ for sinners
  • Salvation through the grace of God in the Lord Jesus Christ
  • The necessity of sincere repentance and acceptance of Christ
  • The new birth (Sanctification)
  • The daily growth through power, prayer, love and service
  • Baptism by immersion
  • Communion / Lord's Supper
  • The baptism of the Holy Spirit
  • The gifts and fruits of the Spirit
  • Divine healing
  • The imminent return of Jesus Christ
  • Final judgment
  • Evangelism emphasized in discipleship
  • Tithing and offerings
  • Church relationship—It is a sacred duty to identify oneself with a congregation of believers to worship God, observe the ordinances of Christ, exhort and support others, labor for the salvation of others, and work together to advance the Lord’s Kingdom.
  • Civil government—Civil government is by divine appointment and civil laws should be upheld at all times except in things opposed to the will of God.
  • Heaven—Heaven is the glorious habitation of the living God and the eternal home of born-again believers.
  • Hell—Hell is a place of darkness, deepest sorrow and unquenchable fire, which was not prepared for man but for the devil and his angels; yet it will become the place of eternal separation from God for all who reject Christ as Savior.
  • Foursquare emphasizes a whole-hearted relationship with God, a means of talking to God through prayer, meditation, and fasting, along with social service for and through Christ.
