Statement of Faith - Pathway to Power Worship Center

We believe the Holy Bible to be the true word of God, written by inspired men of God of faith.  Inspired by the spirit of God, the Holy Ghost, the third person of the God head. We believe that being born again is the greatest and most important need for all mankind.  We believe after being born again, you become a new person by putting away the works of the flesh.  Abstaining from sin keeps the new person you have become close to God and ready for the next level in God, which is receiving the baptism of the Holy Ghost. 

We believe the book of Acts, the second chapter gives full account of this experience.  The bible teaches of a 30 fold, a 60 fold and a 100 fold Christian experience.  We believe that the 100 fold Christians are born again (saved), sanctified and have received the baptism of the Holy Ghost.  Acts 2:2 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4AND THEY WERE ALL FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST, AND BEGAN TO SPEAK WITH OTHER TONGUES, AS THE SPIRIT GAVE THEM UTTERANCE.

We believe in water baptism.  As Jesus gave an example for the sole purpose of showing that we believe in the death and resurrection of Christ in baptism.  We also show that we are “putting away” the old man and taking on the new man.  It is a type of death and resurrection for all born again believers.  Romans Chapter 6: 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?   4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.  5For if we have been planted together in the LIKENESS OF HIS DEATH, WE SHALL BE ALSO IN THE LIKENESS OF HIS RESURRECTION.

We believe in the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, the Trinity.  WE DO NOT BELIEVE IN THREE GODS, but that God is the Father, Jesus is the son, and the Holy Ghost is the third person of the Trinity.              

We believe that God the father has given his son Jesus all power to redeem mankind.  The book of Daniel, Chapter 7:9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, AND THE ANCIENT OF DAYS DID SIT, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.  10A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.   12As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time. 13I saw in the night visions, and, BEHOLD, ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN, AND CAME TO THE ANCIENT OF DAYS, AND THEY BROUGHT HIM NEAR BEFORE HIM.   14And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

We believe that through the name of Jesus and Jesus alone a person can be saved.  We believe that what ever is done on this Earth, whether in word or deed should be done in the name of Jesus. We believe that when Matthew wrote in Chapter 28:19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”, he truly meant in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Throughout the New Testament this bears record.  Through Peter, Acts Chapter 2:38THEN PETER SAID UNTO THEM, REPENT, AND BE BAPTIZED EVERY ONE OF YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS, AND YE SHALL RECEIVE THE GIFT OF THE HOLY GHOST.  And through Paul, Acts Chapter 19:3And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.  4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.  5 WHEN THEY HEARD THIS, THEY WERE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS. 6AND WHEN PAUL HAD LAID HIS HANDS UPON THEM, THE HOLY GHOST CAME ON THEM; AND THEY SPAKE WITH TONGUES, AND PROPHESIED.  7And all the men were about twelve. 

We believe that when Jesus has put the last enemy under his feet, which is death, he himself will become subject unto God that God may be all in all.   1Cor. Chapter 15:28And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

We believe that Jesus, the son of God was and is the most important person to ever live in human form on this earth.  If you would read the entire 5th Chapter of the book of Revelations you will find that the only one found worthy to open the book and to loose the seals thereof was Jesus.  He was the one, the only one to be brought before the throne of God twice.  Please read DANIEL 7:9-14, Please note that Verse 13 says  I SAW IN THE NIGHT VISIONS, AND, BEHOLD, ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN CAME WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN, AND CAME TO THE ANCIENT OF DAYS, AND THEY BROUGHT HIM NEAR BEFORE HIM.”  

Please Note The Word Of God in Revelations Chapter 5:6 AND I BEHELD, AND, LO, IN THE MIDST OF THE THRONE AND OF THE FOUR BEASTS, AND IN THE MIDST OF THE ELDERS, STOOD A LAMB (JESUS) AS IT HAD BEEN SLAIN, HAVING SEVEN HORNS AND SEVEN EYES, WHICH ARE THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD SENT FORTH INTO ALL THE EARTH.   5:7 AND HE CAME AND TOOK THE BOOK OUT OF THE RIGHT HAND OF HIM THAT SAT UPON THE THRONE. 

We believe in divine healing, through faith in the Name of Jesus.  We believe in the resurrection of the dead, the eternal happiness of the saved children of God,  and the eternal punishment of the lost.
