Family Legacy Missions International seeks to serve as a catalyst for spiritual, Biblical unity in the Body of Christ as we serve various parts of the Body of Christ around the world. While we pray and work toward unity, we also are mindful of Paul’s caution in Galatians 1:8-9, “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.” Cooperation that results in a dilution or compromise of the essential truths of the Bible is ecumenism, not Holy Spirit-breathed Biblical unity. We seek to work with all those who believe in the following Statement of Faith:
God. We believe that the Godhead eternally exists in three persons–the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit – and that these three are one God, having precisely the same nature, attributes, and perfections.
Jesus. We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, death on the cross to provide for our redemption, bodily resurrection and ascension into heaven, present ministry of intercession for us, and His return to earth in power and glory.
Holy Spirit. We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, that He performs the miracle of new birth in an unbeliever and indwells Believers, enabling them to live Godly lives.
Bible. We believe in the divine verbal inspiration of the Scriptures. The whole Bible, in the original manuscripts, is without error. As the revelation of God, we believe the Bible to be the sole authority and sufficiency with regard to Christian faith and practice.
Man. We believe that man was originally created in the image of God. Adam fell through sin, and as a consequence of his sin, lost his spiritual life. This spiritual death has been transmitted to the entire human race of man, the Man Christ Jesus alone being excepted. Thus every person is born into the world with a nature that is essentially and unchangeably sinful apart from saving grace.
Salvation. We believe that, due to universal death through sin, no one can enter the Kingdom of God unless they are born again. Our redemption has been accomplished solely by the blood of our Lord Jesus. We believe that the new birth of the Believer comes only through faith in Christ. No other acts, such as confession, baptism, prayer, faithful service, or manifestation of certain spiritual gifts, are to be added to believing as a condition of salvation.
