The Pentecostals of Chiang Mai

Preaching the apostolic message of Acts 2:38 in Chiang Mai, Thailand!

This is a brief overview of what we believe and teach in our church.

About the Bible

The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See II Timothy 3:15-17.) 

About God and the man Jesus

There is one God, who has revealed Himself as Father; through His Son, in redemption; and as the Holy Spirit, by emanation. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man. (See Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16.) 

About Sin and Salvation

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (See Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9.) 

About the Gospel (How to be saved)

The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:8; I Peter 4:17) by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial) using full immersion (not sprinkling) and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (resurrection). (See I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4.) 

About Christian Living

As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today. (See Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10.)

About Communion (The Lord’s Supper)

We believe in partaking of the Lord’s Supper or communion throughout the year from time to time. (See 1 Corinthians 11:17-34)

About the Future

Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death. (See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)

About the Ministry

We recognize the importance and authority of the 5 fold ministry in the church. God Himself has placed the leadership of the church in the hands of people for the sole purpose of preparing others for Heaven. (See Ephesians 4:11-12 - 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:) We always strive to lead and teach others in love and desire to help people become everything God wants them to be. We are always ready to answer your questions and teach personal bible studies when requested.
