Get the hobin'd mug.Articles of Faith (in a nutshell):
We believe there is one God made up of three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in miracles; we believe in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and the baptizing in the Holy Spirit ("baptism by fire"). We do not believe that one must be baptized in the Holy Spirit in order to be saved. We believe that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior, and that He is the only way to Heaven. We emphasize a personal relationship with God.
