At GRACE Pentecostal Church we endeavour to be a lighthouse to Bonavista and the surrounding communities, shining a light on the redemptive message of Jesus in hopes ALL may find a relationship with Him.
We Believe
The Bible
The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God.
One God
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
Return to the earth
In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father and His personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand years.
The Blessed Hope
In the Blessed Hope – the Rapture of the Church – at Christ’s coming.
Regeneration
Regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
Cleansing from sin
The only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
In Water Baptism
In Water Baptism by immersion for believers, according to Matthew 28:19.
Remembrance of the death of our Lord
In the observance of the Lord’s Supper in remembrance of the death of our Lord, as outlined in 1 Corinthians 11:23-32.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given believers who ask for it.
The power of the Holy Spirit
In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
Healing of the human body
The redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing of the human body in answer to believing prayer.
The resurrection of all
In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation.
Our Core Values
We value God:
His Word, His Creation, His redemptive purposes in His son, His presence through the Holy Spirit and the imminent return of Christ.
We value a cooperative fellowship
that enhances the church’s ability to fulfill its missional mandate, through servant leadership, a shared vision, positive communication, relevant ministry and strategic mobilization of its resources.
We value “the lost”
to whom we owe the compassion of Christ, an opportunity to receive the gospel, and entrance into Christian fellowship.
We value believers,
their commitment to personal discipleship, their baptism in the Holy Spirit, their Christian family life, and their Christ-like example and witness.
We value the local assembly
marked by sound doctrine, anointed proclamation, fervent prayer, divine healing, Spirit-led worship, authentic relationships, every-member ministry, Holy Spirit-empowered evangelism and practical expression of Christian faith in the world.
