Our Biblical Stances

Anchored in Scripture

One Faith Gospel Ministries presents our Position Statement, detailing our steadfast stances on controversial topics and biblical doctrines. This page clarifies our scriptural convictions, confronting critical issues that challenge Christian unity.

We approach questions surrounding spiritual gifts, eschatology, and moral dilemmas, anchoring each position in God’s Word. Our Position Statement reflects OFG Ministries’ commitment to biblical defense in a compromising theological age.

Doctrinal Authority

Where Do We Source Our Teaching?

On the question of doctrinal authority, OFG Ministries affirms that any specific doctrine, particular teaching, or derived material advocated by OFG Ministries, whether through prophetic utterance, written publication, recorded media, or other methods of propagation, is held to be authoritatively sourced from the written Word of God, interpreted in and of itself via the express revelation of the Holy Spirit.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the doctrine, teaching, and particular positions, whether prophetic or didactic, held by OFG Ministries regarding the divine truth of Scripture have been derived from the written Word of God as interpreted against itself via divine revelation of the Holy Spirit.

Bible Versions

What Bible Version Do We Use?

On the question of Bible versions, OFG Ministries affirms that the most superior Bible version is the Authorized 1611 King James Version of the Holy Bible. With its unique and pure form, distinguished and powerful style, remarkable production history, and far-reaching impact on the world, the Authorized Version carries exceptional evidence of divine authorization and activity in its formation and distribution.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the 1611 King James Version of the Bible, known as the “Authorized Version,” is the Spirit-anointed Bible version containing the written Word of God in the English language, having been remarkably produced and powerfully used by God in modern history through the direct influence of the Holy Spirit and special operations of divine providence.

The Sabbath Day

What Day is the Sabbath?

On the question of the Sabbath Day, OFG Ministries affirms that the Biblical Sabbath is the seventh day, as established in the Old Testament, aligning with Saturday on the modern Gregorian calendar, and was never validly transferred to Sunday by the Lord Jesus Christ, through the testimony of Scripture, or by apostolic precedent.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the Seventh-day Sabbath is the “Lord’s Day,” supported by the Law, the Prophets, and the affirmation of Jesus Christ Himself as the “Lord of the Sabbath.” Consequently, Sunday worship is evidently invalid, as it stems from traditional imposition and the syncretism of early Catholicism with ancient paganism.

Biblical High Sabbaths

Are the Old Testament Feasts Valid?

On the question of the Old Testament feast days, OFG Ministries affirms that the annual High Sabbath Feasts of Passover (Pesach), Pentecost (Shavuot), and the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot), specified in the Old Testament, remain the biblically mandated holy days for perpetual observance by the Lord’s people.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the Old Testament High Sabbath Feasts are to be observed today through the Holy Spirit, as fulfilled in Christ, in accordance with the practices of the New Testament Apostolic Church. This renders all historical and traditional holy days invalid, being rooted in deviations from Scripture, historical pagan religions, and worldly human traditions.

The Baptism of the Spirit

What is Spirit Baptism?

On the question of Spirit Baptism, OFG Ministries affirms that Baptism with the Holy Spirit is demonstrated in Scripture as a supernatural experience received by the Apostles and disciples on the day of Pentecost, and is an equally valid supernatural experience that can be received by believers in this age through faith in Jesus Christ.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the supernatural experience of Baptism with the Holy Spirit is not only scriptural in its origins and validity but is equally an experiential truth of Christianity that is demonstrated in the lives of believers in this age.

Divine Healing

Is Supernatural Healing for Today?

On the question of divine healing, OFG Ministries affirms that divine healing of a supernatural nature is demonstrated most clearly through the ministry of Jesus Christ and His Apostles in Scripture, and is a valid experience received and performed by believers today through faith in Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the reality of divine healing through various supernatural means as administered by the Church of Jesus Christ is not only demonstrated in Scripture but equally demonstrated in the ministry and experience of the Church of all ages.

Offices and Spiritual Gifts

Are the Supernatural Gifts and Offices Active?

On the question of ministry offices and spiritual gifts, OFG Ministries affirms that the supernatural offices of Church government and spiritual gifts listed in Scripture, bestowed upon individuals through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, are active and in operation today in the Body of Christ as determined by God.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the particular supernatural offices of apostle, prophet, and evangelist, and the particular supernatural gifts of tongues, prophecy, miracles, and healing, are active and in operation today in the Body of Christ via the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

The Definition of Marriage

Are There Many Forms of Marriage?

On the question of the definition of marriage, OFG Ministries affirms that marriage is biblically defined as the monogamous union of one man and one woman joined under the sanctity of marriage according to the will of God in such a way as to be a permanent union that mirrors the relationship of Christ with His Church.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that marriage is strictly heterosexual, is monogamous, and is the will of God, typified in the union of Jesus Christ and His Church. This renders all other alternative forms of marriage invalid and products of debased satanic ideologies and reprobated cultural invention.

Denominations

What Are Denominations?

On the question of Christian denominations, OFG Ministries affirms that certain denominations in the Body of Christ are an outgrowth of several revivals designed to throw light on key components of biblical truth and multiply the Church. In the case of apostate and cultish denominations, they result from demonic doctrines, falsehoods, schisms, and apostasy from Biblical Christianity.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that most denominations present today among Christian churches are but substructures of one Church, which is the Body of Christ, except for heretical cults and apostate groups, which are products of satanic falsehood and apostasy from the Christian faith.

The State of Israel

Is National Israel God’s Elect?

On the question of National Israel, OFG Ministries affirms that the present State of Israel, is in a transition phase from the existing secular and religiopolitical Judaistic ethnostate, towards the manifestation of the Millennial Kingdom as prophesied in Scripture, where Jesus Christ will rule with a rod of iron from the throne of David in Jerusalem.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the true Nation of Israel consists specifically of the elect Jewish remnant of grace saved under the Gospel dispensation, and those the New Testament defines as “all Israel” who will be saved following the fullness of the Gentiles coming in and their national repentance at the second coming of Jesus Christ.

The Rapture of the Church

When Does the Rapture Take Place?

On the question of the rapture, OFG Ministries affirms that Scripture positions this event after the tribulation, aligning with the second coming of Christ, marked by the sign of the Son of Man in heaven and a great trumpet sound sending God’s angels to gather His elect before the outpouring of divine wrath in the seven vial judgments.

This is to say, OFG Ministries advocates that the rapture’s biblical timing is post-tribulation and pre-wrath, and considers all other positions to be unsubstantiated by Scripture and rooted in the theological distortions of erroneous Bible prophecy interpretation systems.
