Statement of Faith

Yvonne Conte & Psalm 16:8 Ministries believes the Bible is God’s word. The Scriptures are divinely inspired, truthful, authoritative, and infallible in matters of faith and practice and the ultimate standard for living a life that pleases and is blessed by God.

We believe in one true and living God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Our God is perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, goodness, mercy, justice, and love. He involves himself actively in human affairs, hears and answers prayers, saves from sin and death all who come to him through Jesus Christ.

We believe Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born to a virgin. That He is fully God and man. He is humanity as God intended it to be. We believe in his miracles, teachings, and sinless life; his death on the cross; resurrection; and ascension into heaven. We believe that renewal by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of mankind.

We are enabled to live a Godly life only through the ministry of the Holy Spirit who dwells within the Christian believer by faith. From the moment of spiritual birth, the Holy Spirit continually is able to fill the believer until the day of redemption. We are justified through faith in Christ by grace. Our redemption comes by Christ Jesus alone, not by our works or religious ceremonies. A personal relationship with Jesus Christ is the cornerstone to fulfilling God’s will in one’s life.

We believe that all people are created in God’s image which secures and establishes their value. All people are also sinners by nature and choice, and are therefore under condemnation. We believe that God forgives, regenerates, and makes righteous those who repent of their sins and place their full faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

“I know the Lord is always with me.
I will not be shaken for He is right beside me.”

We believe that salvation is a gift of grace from God, received by faith bringing new, abundant, and eternal life. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ committed two ordinances to the church for believers: baptism and communion.

We believe in the return of Christ to earth. We believe in the resurrection of the body and judgment of the living and dead. We believe in the eternal punishment of the unrighteous, who will be separated forever from the presence of God. And we believe in the eternal blessing of the righteous, who will be united forever with the God who loves them and has redeemed them. At the end of time, God will reign in glory over a new heaven and a new earth, recreated by his might power, where he will be forever worshiped, enjoyed and loved.
