Statement of Faith

The Harvest Warriors

No complete statement can be made regarding every belief. We have the Scripture to give us all we need for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness. As the Living Word, only it is the complete and final authority. This statement is a guide of those things we consider important; although, even it is incomplete. God is revealing many things in these “last of the last days.” May we be blessed with His Spirit of revelation and wisdom, as He guides us into all Truth. We now see only dimly and in part. So, as we mature and grow from glory to glory, may this guide be a “new wineskin” that will incorporate all God’s Truth. This guide can in no way replace Scripture as authoritative. It is our desire to use only Scripture as references in this Statement of Beliefs.

This document contains doctrines that are both essential and non-essential to salvation. It is our goal to list most, including all herein contained, as essential to being more than just a Christian: essential to being a mature son/daughter of our Father and to being an over comer (Rev. 2 and 3). We consider all of these as essential to walking in the “fullness of Christ.”
