Teaching of Faith on the Apostle's Doctrine

The Apostle's Doctrine

Doctrine: Teaching, program, belief, method. That which is held as foundational.
Whose doctrine? The Apostles - those who were ...
  • Eyewitnesses of Jesus Christ, his death, burial and resurrection
  • Of the first generation to receive the understanding and experience of salvation by faith in the Life, Death, Resurrection and Eternal Name of Jesus Christ.
  • Commissioned and Authorized by Jesus Christ for the preaching of THE GOSPEL
Today, we receive their word through the scriptures, and we can receive the promise of the Holy Ghost if we will believe upon, through their word, the message and person of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The One True God
The Bible Plan of Salvation is your opportunity in this late date of the '90s
You can make a lasting change and open the doors for God to work in your life! Baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is given for remission of sins. It's the teaching of the Apostles! The "promise of the Father" is fulfilled in the Baptism of the Holy Ghost (Luke 24:49. Acts 1:5,9, 2:1-4)

Oneness asserts that ...
  1. God is indivisible in number with no distinction of persons
  2. Jesus is the absolute fullness of the Godhead in the flesh He is God, Jehovah, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
  3. The Son of God was begotten after the flesh and did not exist in eternity past - the term only refers to God's incarnation in Christ.
  4. The Word is not a separate person, but the mind, thought, plan, or expression of the Father God.
  5. Jesus is the revealed name of God, in the NT which represents power, authority and salvation from God
  6. Water baptism should be administered orally invoking the name of Jesus Christ.
  7. believers will definitely see only one divine being in heaven; Jesus Christ.

One God in Christ Jesus


GOD
There is only ONE GOD; the Creator of the heavens and theearth and of all mankind, manifested to mankind as FATHER (creator) SON, (savior), and HOLY GHOST (indwelling Spirit) (Romans 8:11).
God is by nature, a spirit (John 4:24). Wheel of Prophecy 
FATHER
God is a Spirit (John 4:24), the Eternal One, the Creator of all things; and of course, of all men, thus making Him their Father (through creation).
He is the FIRST and the LAST and beside Him there is no other. (Isaiah 44:6)
There was no God formed BEFORE Him, neither shall there be after Him.
The title "Father" used by Jesus, refers to Deity
SON
Jesus is the SON of God according to the flesh (Romans 1:3), and the very God Himself according to the Spirit. Jesus is the Christ (Matt 1:23); God made flesh (John 1:1-14); God manifested in the flesh (1 Tim 3:16); He which was, which is, and which is to come. THE ALMIGHTY (Rev 1:8; Isaiah 9:6).
To this Jesus Himself testified when he said, "He that hath seen me hath seen the father" (John 14:7-11); and "I and the Father are ONE" (John 10:30).
Since it took the shedding of blood for the remission of sins of the world (Hebrews 9:22), God as the Father being a Spirit had no blood to shed; so He prepared a body of flesh and blood (Hebrews 10:5), that He might fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah 43:11; "Beside ME there is no SAVIOR"; and caused the angels to sing "For there is born this day in the city of David, a SAVIOR which is CHRIST THE LORD".
Hebrews 1:3 refers to Jesus as "the express image of [God's] person". No wonder Jesus could say "he that hath seen me hath seen the Father" (John 14:9)
The title Son, used by Jesus Christ, and by Deity (such as at the Jordan baptism) refers to humanity.
HOLY GHOST
The HOLY GHOST is not the third person in the Godhead, but rather the manifestation of the Spirit of God (the Creator), and of the resurrected Christ, coming to dwell in the hearts and lives of all men who will be obedient to the gospel, and the Comforter, Sustainer, and the Keeper (John 14:16-26; Romans 8:11). 
When we use the title "Holy Ghost" after the Day of Pentecost (or when Jesus used it referring ahead to this era), it is referring to the immanent God, who works in human lives for regeneration BY that spirit since Pentecost. 
So there are not three GODS, or persons, but three manifestations of ONE GOD who we know by the revealed face of God, Jesus Christ, God in Flesh.
"These three are one" (1 John 5:7)

The following truths are also essential...,
  • All the names and titles of God apply to Jesus
  • Jesus is Jehovah
  • The Holy Spirit is literally the Spirit that was in Jesus Christ, i.e. the Spirit of Truth (John 14:17=18, 2 Cor 3:17)
  • Jesus is the One depicted on the throne in Rev 1-22, and particularly ch 4.
  • The essential identity of Jesus is the same as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. The title of Father refers to His role as Father of all creation, Father of the only begotten Son, and Father of the born-again believer. The title Son refers to God's incarnation, in human flesh, for the man Christ was certainly conceived by the Spirit of God. The title of Holy Ghost describes the fundamental of God's moral attributes. It specifically refers to God in activity, where unlimited by fleshly incarnation. God particularly anoints, regenerates, and dwells in man by this means.
  • The name of Jesus receives strong emphasis in scripture. In all scripture the name of God is an extension of His individual personality. In the OT Jehovah was the distinctive name of God whereby He distinguished himself from false gods. In the NT, God accompanied the revelation of Himself in the flesh with a new name. That name is Jesus which includes and supersedes Jehovah since it literally means Jehovah Savior. or Jehovah is salvation. Although others have born the name of Jesus, the Lord Jesus Christ is the only one who is actually what that name describes.
Jesus is the redemptive name of God in the New Testament. It carries the power and the authority needed by the Church, as shown in: John 14:14, Acts 4:12, Acts 10:43, Phil 2:9-10, Col 3:17
