What does Prayer247365 believe about
God?
God is the Creator and Ruler of the
universe. He has eternally existed in
three persons: the Father, the Son and
the Holy Spirit. These three are
co-equal and are one God.
Ref: Genesis 1:1,26, 27; 3:22; Psalm
90:2; Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 1:2; 2
Corinthians 3:14
What does Prayer247365 believe about
Jesus Christ?
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is
co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a
sinless human life and offered Himself
as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of
all men by
dying on a
cross. He arose from the dead after
three days to demonstrate His power over
sin and death. He ascended to Heaven’s
glory and will return again to earth to
reign as King of kings and Lord of
lords.
Ref: Matthew 1:22,23; Isaiah 9:6; John
1:1-5, 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14,15; 1
Corinthians 15:3,4; Romans 1:3,4; Acts
1:9-11; 1 Timothy 6:14,15; Titus 2:13
What does Prayer247365 believe about the
Holy Spirit?
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father
and the as God. He is present in the
world to make men aware of their need
for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every
Christian from the moment of salvation.
He provides the Christian with power for
living, understanding of spiritual
truth, and guidance in doing what is
right. The Christian seeks to live under
His control daily.
Ref: 2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13,
14:16,17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12,
3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25;
Ephesians 5:1
What does Prayer247365 believe about
Man?
Man is made in the spiritual image of
God, to be like Him in character. He is
the supreme object of God’s creation.
Although man has tremendous potential
for good, he is marred by sin. In Adam,
all mankind fell into sin with the
result that all men are sinners. Men are
justly condemned to eternal judgment and
can do nothing to merit salvation.
Ref: Genesis 1:27; 9:6; Psalm 8:3-6;
Isaiah 53:6a; Romans 2:2,3,5; 3:23;
5:12; Isaiah 59:1,2; Ephesians 2:1, 8-9
What does Prayer247365 believe about
Salvation?
Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man
can never make up for his sin by
self-improvement or good works. Only by
trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer
of forgiveness can man be saved from
sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the
moment one receives Jesus Christ into
his life by faith.
Ref: Romans 6:23; Ephesians 2:8,9; John
14:6, 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26;
Romans 5:1
What does Prayer247365 believe about
the Bible?
The Bible is God’s word to all men. It
was written by human authors. This was
done by the supernatural guidance of the
Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of
truth for Christian beliefs and living.
Because God inspired it, it is truth
without any mixture of error.
Ref: 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20,21; 2
Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105,160, 12:6;
Proverbs 30:5
About Eternity
Man was created to exist forever. He
will either exist eternally separated
from God by sin, or in union with God
through forgiveness and salvation. To be
eternally separated from God is Hell. To
be eternally in union with Him is
eternal life. Heaven and Hell are places
of eternal existence.
Ref: John 3:16; John 2:25; John 5:11-13;
Romans 6:23; 20:15; 1 John 5:11-12;
Matthew 25:31-46
About Eternal Security
Because
God gives man eternal life through Jesus
Christ, the believer is secure in
salvation for eternity. Salvation is
maintained by the grace and power of
God, not by the self-effort of the
Christian. It is the grace and keeping
power of God that gives this security.
Ref:
John 10:29; 2 Timothy 1:12; Hebrews
7:25; 10:10,14; 1 Peter 1:3-5
About The Church
The Church is composed of all believers.
It is the body and bride of Christ,
formed by the baptism of the Holy Spirit
and existing in two aspects, universal
and local. The universal Church is an
elect company of believers, baptized by
the Holy Spirit into one body. Its
mission is to witness to its head, Jesus
Christ, preaching the gospel among all
nations. At the Rapture of the Church,
it will be caught up to meet the Lord,
after which He will return to set up His
Kingdom. The local Church is a group of
believers voluntarily joined together in
love (fellowship), worship God with
praise and thanksgiving, and to glorify
Jesus Christ through an aggressive
effort to disciple others by the
preaching of the gospel, and the
exercise of spiritual gifts.
Ref: Ephesians 1:22,23; 5:24-30; I
Corinthians 12:4-13,27
About
Angels
Angels were originally created holy, but
now because of Satan's rebellion, there
is also an unholy angelic kingdom,
referred to as demons.
Ref: Colossians 1:16; Job 38:6,7; Psalm
148:2-5; Jude 6; Matthew 25:41;
Ephesians 6:11,12; I Timothy 5:21;
Revelation12:9
About
The
Ordinances
The
Bible sets forth two ordinances, the
Lord's Supper and water baptism. The
Lord's Supper is to be celebrated
regularly in remembrance of Christ's
death on the cross, and in expectation
of His return. Water baptism is an
outward testimony of a person's belief
in Christ. Immersion is the means set
forth in Scripture.
Ref:
Matthew 28:19,20; Mark 16:15,16; Acts
8:12,36-38; 9:18; 10:47; I Corinthians
11:23-26
At Prayer247365 Our
Focus
At Prayer247365, we believe there is a
lack of effective use of where spiritual
energies are being directed and used.
Our ministry and resources are geared to
better use of spiritual energies. Eph
6:12 helps give us our focus. “For our
struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the
authorities, against the powers of this
dark world and against the spiritual
forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

Am I too young to pray? No. Prayer can
be learned at a very early age. It is
recommended that one start to learn easy
prayers as early as possible.
Is there an incorrect way to pray?
Prayer is communication with God, the
Father, Jesus, his Son, and with the
help of the Holy Spirit. There is no
"incorrect" way to pray. However, there
are things that can be said that hinder
one's prayers. (See Article...)
I am afraid to pray. Why? Our human
nature is to avoid things that we do not
understand or lack experience and
confidence. As believers, we all have a
responsibility to learn all that we can
about prayer. The power of our spiritual
nature (as born-again believers) comes
through prayer and the help and teaching
of the Holy Spirit.

and 1 Timothy 2:8
