At Wiphan, everything we have built and everything we continue to do hinges on our statement of faith. We believe that our savior, Jesus Christ is clear when he commands us in James 1:27 to look after widows and orphans which is our motivation to do so. We believe that as we travel and minister to those in need we must all be grounded in the fact the God has provided for us a way to fulfill his commission and for his name to be glorified first and foremost in our work.
WE BELIEVE the Holy Bible to be the inspired, only infallible, authoritative Word of God (II Timothy 3:15, II Peter 1:21).
WE BELIEVE there is one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30).
WE BELIEVE in the deity of Christ (John 10:33),
His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35),
His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, Hebrews 7:26),
His miracles (John 2:11),
His vicarious and atoning death (I Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9),
His resurrection (John 11:25, I Corinthians 15:4),
His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19) and
His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11).
WE BELIEVE in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s grace and through faith alone are we saved (John 3:16-19, John 5:24, Romans 3:23, Romans 5:8-9, Ephesians 2:8-10, Titus 3:5).
WE BELIEVE in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
WE BELIEVE in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, I Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:26-28).
WE BELIEVE in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13-14, I Corinthians 3:16; 6:19-20, Ephesians 4:30, Ephesians 5:18).
WE BELIEVE that prayer is vitally important to undergird the oneness we have in Christ as a Wiphan family.
WE BELIEVE that the Bible and religious training are a part of every aspect of the Wiphan Ministries program.
