About God Speed Ministry

We believe in one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe Jesus Christ, without any change in His eternal deity, became man through conception by the Holy Spirit and virgin birth and that He died on the cross, a perfect and complete sacrifice, in our stead and for our sins according to the Scriptures. He rose bodily from the dead and ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate.

We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and, during this age, to convict of sin and regenerate the sinner upon believing in Christ, at the time of regeneration baptizing the believer into the one body, of which Christ is the head, and to indwell, guide, instruct, fill, and empower the believer for godly living and service. We believe that man was directly created by God in His own image but fell into sin. The entire human race is, therefore, lost, and only through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ and regeneration of the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

We believe that the atoning death of Jesus Christ and His resurrection provide the only ground of justification and salvation for all who believe and that only such people as receive Jesus Christ by personal faith are born of the Holy Spirit and by Him are sealed to the day of redemption. We believe it is the perfect will of God for every person to come into a personal, dynamic relationship with God. We also believe God will not override man’s free will. God offers salvation and a relationship, but each person must make that decision once they cross the age of accountability. Until that age, we believe babies and children who die are received in heaven by God.

We believe in the personal, imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ and that the hope of His appearing has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of all the dead, of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting and conscious punishment.

We believe that the Church is composed of all such persons who, through saving faith in Jesus Christ, have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and are united together in the body of Christ, of which He is the head. We believe that water baptism and the Lord’s Supper are ordinances to be observed by the Church during this present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as means of salvation.

We believe that all the saved should live in such a manner as will honor and glorify and not bring reproach upon their Savior and Lord and that it is commanded by God to remain separate from false doctrines and sinful pleasures, practices, and associations. We believe in the existence of angels who worship God and minister to believers. We also believe in the existence of Satan, the devil, a fallen angelic being who, with his demons, opposes God, His people, and His work but over whom Christians can have spiritual victory.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the righteous and the wicked. The righteous will experience everlasting life, and the wicked will experience the second death in Hell.

We are living in a time of unprecedented change, marked by social upheaval, climate challenges, and conflicts. Regardless of current views, we believe God’s truth is right.

We believe God created man in His own image, male and female. These are the only two sexes. We believe life begins at conception. We believe marriage was created by God. Marriage occurs when a man and a woman enter the Holy Covenant of marriage with God.

We believe in the sacred creation of humanity by God. We believe we are complete as God created us. We also believe, as scripture states, that our bodies are the temples of God. “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you? If someone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, which is what you are.” 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 We do not believe we need any artificial intelligence placed within our bodies.
