The values, programs and activities which govern the conduct of Destiny Ministries are based upon, and at all times shall be consistent with, the following creed and beliefs:

The Scriptures:

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of Holy Men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. The New Covenant as recorded in the New Testament, we accept as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine.

(II Timothy 3:16, I Thessalonians 2:13, II Peter 1:21)

The Triune Godhead:

Our God is One, but manifested in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, being co-equal. God the Father is greater than all, the Source of the Word (Logos) and the Begetter. The Son is the Word of flesh-covered, the One Begotten, and has existed with the Father from the beginning. The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son and is eternal.

(John 14:28, John 16:28, John 1:14, John 1:1, John 1:18, John 1:14, John 15:16)

Man, His Fall & Redemption:

Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God, but through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” As it is written, there is none righteous, no not one.” Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to undo the work of the devil and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God. Salvation is a gift from God to man, separate from the works and the law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works of faith acceptable to God.

(Romans 5:12, Romans 3:23, Romans 3:10, John 3:8, Ephesians 2:18)

Eternal Life & Salvation:

Through faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work of redemption and by God's grace, outside of his own works and performance man receives eternal life.

(Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 4:16, John 6:40)

Water Baptism:

Baptism in water is by immersion and is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. The following recommendation regarding the Water Baptismal formula is adopted, to wit: “On the confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by His authority, I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

(Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:12, Acts 8:36-39)

Baptism in the Holy Spirit:

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to receiving salvation. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of the speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance.

(Matthew 3:11, John 14:16-17, Acts 1:8, Acts 2:38-39, Acts 19:1-7, Acts 2:4)

Righteousness & Holiness:

The Bible teaches that those who are in Christ are righteous and holy in Him and by virtue of His complete and finished work of redemption; outside of their own performance. Right and holy living are the result and outflow of Christ's righteousness and holiness within the believer.

(1 Corinthians 1:30; Romans 5:17; 2 Corinthians 5:17; 1 John 4:17)

Divine Healing:

Healing is for physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith, of the laying on of hands. It is provided for in Christ’s redemption for us, and it is the privilege of every member of the church today.

(Mark 16:18, James 5:14-15, I Peter 2:24, Matthew 8:17, Isaiah 53:4-5)

The return of the Christ: 

We have adopted "PAN" theology to this subject. In other words it will all "PAN" out in the end. What we can be certain about, is that we are to occupy until He comes. Until such time, believers have received power from the Holy Spirit to be witnesses of His ressurection in all the earth. Furthermore, we have all received the ministry of reconciliation and we are to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

(Luke 19:13, Acts 1:8, 2 Corinthians 5:19, Matthew 24:14 )

Hell & Eternal Retribution:

The one who physically dies without having received Jesus Christ and His gift of redemption is hopelessly and eternally lost in the lake of fire and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or for repentance. The lake of fire is literal. The terms “eternal” and “everlasting” used in describing the duration of the punishment of the damned in the lake of fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in noting the duration of joy and ecstasy in the saints in the presence of God.

(Hebrews 9:27, Revelations 19:20)

The ordinance of the Lord's supper (Holy Communion):

The ordinance of the Lord’s Supper shall be observed regularly as enjoined in the Scriptures.

(Luke 22:19-20, I Corinthians 11:23-26)
