First Pentecostal Church of Starks

Our Beliefs

At First Pentecostal Church we desire to create a place of worship where the presence of God may be experienced in every service. We are Pentecostal in experience and Apostolic in practice. We believe in worship and that the power of God and gifts of the Spirit are valid and vital for us today, and that they should function unhindered in the church.

We believe in the great commission and seek to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ both locally and abroad.

We believe there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4). He is the creator of heaven and earth, and of all living beings. He has revealed Himself as the Father in creation as the Son in redemption, and as the Holy Ghost in regeneration.

We believe in water baptism by immersion in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sin. Through baptism we identify with the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ (Romans 6:3-6, Colossians 2:11-14, Acts 2:38).

We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in other tongues (Acts 2:4).

We believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He ministers to His people through tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy; words of knowledge and wisdom, discerning of spirits, faith, working of miracles, healing, helps and government (Mark 16:15-18, Acts 5:16, 2 Corinthians 12:1-11)
