Statement of Faith
Two Hands Ministry upholds the Apostles Creed:
​
[We] believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.
[We] believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day, he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.
[We] believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic [universal] church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. AMEN.
Furthermore, Two Hands Ministry adheres to the following:
​​
-
The Scriptures: The 66 books of the Bible are inspired of God and the written Word of God. All Scripture is infallible, sufficient in all it teaches, and the ultimate authority. (2 Timothy 3:16-17, Revelations 22:18-19)
-
God: We believe in one God, eternal, unchangeable, existing in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:1, Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30)
-
Sin: Sin entered the world through the first man, Adam. (Romans 5:12-15) All of mankind is born into sin because of the fall of Adam and Eve, and all men have sinned of their own accord. (Romans 3:11-13, 23) Sin separates mankind from the all-holy God. (Romans 3:23, 6:23)
-
Salvation: Salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Through Christ’s coming to earth, living a sinless life, fully God and fully man, His death on the cross, and His resurrection, we have the opportunity to be reconciled to God through the forgiveness of sins. (Romans 3:21-26, 2 Corinthians 5:21)
-
Second Coming: Christ will physically return one day as He promised to judge both the living and the dead. Those who have received salvation in Christ will be raised to everlasting life, and those who have rejected salvation to everlasting punishment.
-
Genesis 1 – 11: A historical account of actual events that took place in accordance to the Scriptures. In the beginning was God, and through Him all things were created. The creation took place in six literal days as recorded in Scripture. All that God created was very good. (John 1:1-3, Genesis 1:1, Genesis 1:31)
-
Mankind: Mankind was created in the image of God and created in two distinct genders: male and female. Both genders are equal in value, yet complimentary in biblical roles. (Genesis 1:27) God is the giver of life and makes no mistakes. (Deuteronomy 32:4, Psalm 139:13-14)
-
Marriage: Marriage is designed by God to be between one biological man and one biological woman. (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5-6) In the context of one man-one woman marriage is the only proper context for sexual intimacy. (1 Corinthians 6:9-11)
-
Value of Life: As the Lord is the Author and Giver of life, and as mankind is created in His image, every human life is valuable from the moment of conception and must be respected and protected. (Psalm 139:13-14, Genesis 1:27)
