Kaneva - Imagine What You Can Do

The ALPHA Net is the youth network of New Hope Worship Center. New Hope is directly accountable to the Church of God (Cleveland, TN) for spiritual accountability and covering. The Church of God was founded in 1886 upon the principles of Christ as they are revealed in the Bible, the Word of God. It has its foundation of faith and practice in the Scriptures and the vital experience of its constituents is scripturally oriented.

1. We believe in the verbal inspiration of the Bible
(2 Tim. 3:16; 2 Pet. 1:21; Deu. 28:58)

(Deut. 6:4; I Cor. 8:4; I Tim. 2:5; Gen. 11:7; Is. 48:16; John 15:26)

3. We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the virgin Mary.
(Rom. 5:9; Rom. 5:17-19; 2 Cor. 5:18,19; I Tim. 3:16)

(Is. 42:8; Rom. 3:9-18; Acts 11:18; Rom. 3:23)

(Rom. 5:2; I Cor. 1:30; I Thes. 4:3; Heb 12:14)

8. We believe in the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.
(Mat. 3:11; Luke 24:49,53; Acts 1:4-8)

(John 15:26; Acts 2:4; Acts 10:44-46; Acts 19:1-7)

10. We believe in water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
(Mat. 28:19; Mark 1:9,10; John 3:22-23; Acts 8:36,38)

(Luke 22:17-20; I Cor. 11:23-26; John 13:4-17; I Tim. 5:9-10)

13. We believe in the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First to resurrect the righteous dead and the catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second to reign on earth a thousand years.
(I Cor. 15:52; I Thes. 4:15-17; 2 Thes. 2:1; Zech. 14:4; I Thes. 4:14; 2 Thes. 1:7-10; Jude 14,15; Rev. 5:10; Rev 19:11; Rev 20:4-6)
