OUR MISSION & WHAT TO EXPECT
Peculiar People Ministry is called to the nations and our mandate is to make disciples of all nations, to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the sick, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
We are positioned for the end-time harvest
We are called to equip the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.
​
(Ex 23:25-26) ’There will be no miscarriages or infertility in your land, and I will give you long lives.
OUR FUNDAMENTAL BELIEFS
THE BIBLE TEACHING
We believe that the entire Scripture, both Old and New Testament are written by men
through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit – 2 Timothy 3:16-17. PPM’s theological doctrinal
stance is sola scriptura, our actions and the main thrust is scripture-based (Bible-based). All the Christian teachings and the Christian attitude of the Children of God are such as are established in the Holy Bible – 2 Tim. 3:10-15; 2 Peter 1:21; John 17:17; Ps. 119:105. We believe that the Bible is the written and revealed Will of God. Man's position in God, the way to obtain salvation, woe and destruction awaiting sinners that refuse to repent and everlasting joy that awaits the born again souls. All the Bible teachings are holy. What the Bible reveals as the will of God are such that we should accept, and whatever God writes in the Bible and His Law are to remain unchangeable; for the Heavens and Earth may pass away but the Word of God stands forever. Deut. 4:22; Rev. 22:18, 19; Matt. 24:34-38, Isaiah 40:8.
ABOUT GOD
Psalm 33:6-9 As revealed unto us by the Bible, we believe that there is only one God, Who is “Creator”, the Creator of both visible and invisible creatures – Gen. 1:1; Psalm 86:9-10; Isaiah 43:10-11; John 1:1-3. Only God will be in existence forever. Ezek. 3:14; in God every creature receives life -John 5:26.
ABOUT JESUS CHRIST
We believe that He is the Son of God; who took away our sins, and the Savior of the world. We also believe that Jesus is God and was born by Mary the Virgin. He is God revealed in the flesh. Through Him, all things were created. John 1:1-14; John 14:9; Matt. 1:18-25, Isaiah 9:6; Isaiah 53:5-6. We believe in His death on the Cross, and resurrection, by which He brought redemption – Isaiah 53:4-10; I Pet. 2:24; John 10:11; Gal. 3:13, Matt. 20:28; I Cor. 15:3; Rom. 4:25; 2 Cor. 5:14; Heb 2:9; Heb 9:26.
ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT
The Holy Spirit is the third Person in the TRINITY. He has the same power, the same glory with God the Father and God the Son – John 14:16-17; John 15:26; Matt. 3:16; Acts 13:24. He is one with Father and the Son who is to be worshipped and served. Three Persons that become one are the source of blessings to all the living creatures in Heaven and on earth – Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 13:14; I John 1:5-7. The Holy Spirit has a great role to play. He Teaches, He Speaks to men, and bears witness in us – Acts 16:6-7; He performs the work of regeneration for man - John 3:5-6; He also performs the work of Sanctification in the born again souls until they are fully sanctified – John 16:8; Eph. 1:17-19; 2 Thessa.2:13; I Cor. 6:11. This same Holy Spirit endows believers with gifts they can use in serving the Lord and also ministries to one another – I Cor. 12:7; He empowers one in the Lord. Acts1:8.
ABOUT THE TRINITY
The egg is comprised of three parts: The yellow yolk, the whitish part (albumin), and the shell. Despite these three (3) substances, the egg is not three but one. Likewise, we believe that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost are one God, but made of three persons – hence they are ONE IN TRINITY – Gen. 1:16-29; Matt. 3:16-17; Matt. 18:19.
ABOUT THE DEVIL
We believe that there is a devil, who seeks the downfall of every man. He brought sickness, sin and death into the world. Gen.3:1-16. He seeks the destruction of those who exercise their faith in the Lord Jesus. Matt. 4:1-11; James 4:7; I Peter 5:8. The devil has several unclean spirits (demons or evil spirits) over whom he governs – Matt. 12:24. A time would soon come when he shall be thrown into the pit and chained for one thousand years- Rev. 20:7-9. After this, he will be put into the lake of fire where he will remain suffering together with his followers forever and ever. Rev. 20:10.
ABOUT MAN
Things He created. Gen. 1:26. God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul – Gen 2:7. Therefore man is of three parts, namely body, soul and spirit. Man is God's ambassador on earth to take control over all other creatures on His behalf on earth. Gen.1:26-28. God allows man to take part in His work and thereby reveal His love for mankind more than any other creatures – Gen. 2:15. This also shows how God elevates man more than the other creatures upon the earth.
REPENTANCE UNTO GOD
Repentance is the sorrow, remorse of a godly man for his sins with a decision to abstain from them. – Acts 3:19; 20:21; 2 Cor. 7:10; Mark 1:15; Isaiah 55:7; 2 Chron. 7:14; Ezek. 18:21. When man (‘man’ used in the generic sense) makes this decision to turn a new leaf, the grace of God through the Holy Spirit helps him to live that life expected of him as a born again,(Phil. 4:13) a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17). As the Bible says in Romans 3:23 “we all (all mankind) have sinned and come short or fallen short of the glory of God, but God is a loving Father and has assured that if we, anyone confesses his sins and repents, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 7” But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1: 7-9 King James Version (KJV).
JUSTIFICATION OR NEW BIRTH
This is God's grace whereby we are cleansed from our sins by which we are able to stand before God as though we have never sinned. Acts 13:39; Rom. 3:25-26; Rom. 5:1; I Cor. 6:11; Gal. 3:24; John 1:12-13; 3:3; 2 Cor. 5:9; Titus 3:5; I Peter 1:23; Acts 10:43; John 3:3,5.
SANCTIFICATION (HOLINESS)
Sanctification is another grace of God by which our souls are progressively and completely cleansed. This is the second accomplishment of the grace which through our faith in the Blood of Jesus Christ is wrought after we have been justified and free from our sins or regenerated – John 17:15-17; I Thessa. 4:3; Heb. 2:11; 12:14; 13:12; I John 1:7; Luke 1:74, 75; 2 Cor. 7:1; I Peter 1:16; Eph. 5:25-27; I Thessa. 5:23-24; 2 Thessa. 2:13.
WATER BAPTISM
(A). The Kinds of Baptism We believe in baptism in the Name of God the Father, God the Son and the Holy Ghost – Matt. 28:19. This teaching is revealed in the New Testament and all Christians must obey this rule of the Lord – Acts 2:24; Acts 16:15; Acts 18:8; Acts 19:4-5. Every saved soul automatically qualifies for Water Baptism – Acts 8:29-39; 16:18-23. (B). Baptism by Trinity We believe that all members of this Church should receive immersion Water Baptism, in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, as believers who would not add to, or take out of the Word of God. Matt. 28:19. (C). The reason for Water Baptism: water baptism stands for a sign and an example of two things. 1. It is an outward sign, an example of the true repentance of a sinner from his or her sins. Acts 2:38; Acts 22:6.
2. Anybody who is baptized is joined with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection – Rom. 6:1 – 23; Col. 2:11. 3. Therefore anybody baptized is dead to the world and the evils thereof – Gal. 6:14.
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
All born-again souls should ask for the Holy Spirit from above, as the Apostles were ordered to wait in Jerusalem until they were filled from above. It is the promise of the Father. It is God's gift which He gives to those who obey Him – Luke 24:49; John 4:14-26; Acts 1:4-5; Acts 5:32; Acts 8:14-17. It is God's promise unto those who are far and all whom the Lord shall call – Acts 2:38-39. Any Christian who receives the baptism of the Holy Spirit must speak in tongues – Acts 2:4; Acts 10:34-36; Acts 19:2-6.
