Just as the early church in the book of Acts went from "house to house", GLORY House meets in New Testament fashion in the privacy and comfort of a home setting. Things are more intimate and the closeness you have with one another creates an atmosphere of love,...

BELIEFS
The Word of God -
At GLORY House, we believe that the Word of God is true, relevant for today and experienced in many distinct yet related ways. One way we experience it is through the written Word found within the pages of The Bible. It says in 2 Tim 3:16-17 "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work." (NLT). According to Hebrews 4:12, It is "alive and powerful". We believe that God speaks directly to His people in what is referred to as a "Rhema" Word. "Man shall not live and be upheld and sustained by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God." Matt 4:4 (AMP). Jesus is referred to as "The Word in John 1:1-14. It is also essential for the faith needed for salvation. "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Romans 10:17 (NKJV).
Salvation -
We believe that we are saved by grace through faith in Christ alone. No amount of works can ever make one "good enough" to make it. However, we believe there is much more to salvation than merely getting a "ticket to heaven" or a "get out of hell pass". The Greek word for salvation is sozo. It appears in the New Testamant some 108 times and besides meaning "saved" or "to be saved", it is translated in many places as "healed" or "delivered". It carries with it the meaning of "being completely made whole". At GLORY House we believe in the Salvation of the whole man; spirit, body and soul. According to Luke 4:18-19 Jesus came and was anointed 1) to share the good news, 2) to set those free who were held captive by the power of sin in their lives, 3) to heal the sick and diseased, 4) to bring comfort to those who were broken hearted and emotionally wounded, 5) to set free those who were held prisoners by demonic oppression and 6) to proclaim favor upon His people. In this context, it's our understanding that we are saved (spirit), healed (physical body) and delivered (soul - mind, will and emotions) all as a part of the "salvation package" that Jesus paid for and is available to all who believe and put their faith in Him.
Baptism of The Holy Spirit -
According to Ephesians 1:13, when we were saved, we "were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise" (KJV). It is at this point that the Spirit comes to live inside of us and fills us for OUR benefit. When one is baptized with The Holy Spirit, He comes "upon us" and fills us to overflowing for the benefit of others, as this "empowers" us to be able to minister effectively. John the Baptist predicted that Jesus would come and baptize with the Holy Spirit and with fire (Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:8; Luke 3:16; John 1:33). In John 20:22, Jesus breathed on the disciples and said "Receive The Holy Spirit. We believe this was the point at which the disciples were "saved", because later in Acts 1:5 Jesus recalled John's words, and told His followers that they would be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from then. The spectacular events of the day of Pentecost ten days later were the obvious fulfillment of His words (Acts 2). Peter told the people there that day that "this promise is unto you, your children and all who are afar off as many as The Lord shall call". That includes you and me. See Acts 2:4, Acts 10:44-46 and Acts 19:6. In each of these accounts, the initial evidence of The Baptism of The Holy Spirit was speaking in tongues, and we believe that still holds true today. This is distinctly different from the "gift of tongues" and the prayer language (praying in the Spirit) that we receive once we are filled. See 1 Cor 14:15, Romans 8:26 and Jude 1:20.
Spiritual Gifts -
We believe that every born again Spirit-filled believer can be used in Spiritual Gifts. The Gifts belong to "The Church", not the individual believer. Everyone has the ability to flow in any of the gifts as The Holy Spirit directs. We realize that some people will be more "gifted" in some areas than others and will flow naturally in those areas, but they can still be used by God in any of the gifts as circumstances and situations present themselves. In 1 Corinthians 12, we find a list of the 9 "Gifts of the Spirit":
The Word of Knowledge is simply the Holy Spirit transmitting His specific knowledge to you on something that you would have no ability or means to be able to know about on your own. It is supernatural knowledge and insight being given directly to you by the Holy Spirit Himself, not by your own mind or your own intelligence levels.
The Word of Wisdom - There will be times that a word of knowledge will not be quite enough to solve the problem. This is where you will now need a word of wisdom. A word of wisdom will give you the ability to be able to properly apply the knowledge that you may already have on a particular situation.
The Gift of Prophecy is when you get a direct Word from the Lord to usually give to someone else. And when I say a direct word, I mean the message from the Lord that will be given to you will literally be word for word. Its purpose is to help edify and build others up, or to help them out with something specific they may be dealing with.
The Gift of Faith, is something that comes directly from the Holy Spirit. The Bible tells us that we all have a certain measure of faith that has already been given to us by the Lord when we are saved. It is used when our own levels of faith in the Lord will not be enough to get the job done with what He may be asking us to do for Him.
The Gifts of Healings. One of the things that Jesus is wanting all of us to do for Him to is pray for the sick. And if we do, then many of the times they will “recover,” which means that He is going to heal them. What this means is that at anytime the Holy Spirit can manifest this special gift through any believer so He can then heal someone of any kind of disease, illness, or sickness. The word “gifts” is plural, which means there are different kinds of healings the Lord will want to do.
The Gift of Miracles is when an intervention in the natural universe by God takes place. It could be a phenomena that transcends natural laws or a divine act by which God reveals Himself to people
Discerning of spirits.
The first thing to notice about this gift is that the “s” in the word “spirits” is with a small “s.” This means that it is not referring to the Holy Spirit. The only other spirits that are out there that this gift is referring to are the following three kinds of spirits: demons, angels and human spirits. This gift is used to fully expose what is really going on and operating behind the scenes with someone and is essential during deliverance.
The Gift of Tongues is simply the Holy Spirit giving you the supernatural ability to speak in a foreign tongue or language that you have no knowledge or ability to speak out on your own. When combined with Interpretation of Tongues, it is greater and more powerful than prophesy.
Please note, that this is not the same as our prayer language that we receive once we are baptized in The Holy Spirit. Praying in The Spirit involves a type of tongue which is a heavenly language of angels (unknown tongues). It is not of this earth and not subject to interpretation.
Interpretation of Tongues is where the Holy Spirit will give you the interpretation of the tongues that you have either spoken yourself or when they are being done by someone else in a church setting.
Five Fold Ministry -
We believe in the restoration of the 5-fold Ministry according to Ephesians 4:11-13 for the sole purpose of equipping the saints and expanding the Kingdom of God here on the earth.
Apostles are like fathers who impart to the Body of Christ and raise them up as sons and daughters in the faith.
Prophets bring supernatural revelation and insight, giving vision of the times and seasons of God so that the saints know what to do.
Evangelists impart zeal for souls to be saved and equip the saints with wisdom and anointing in winning the lost.
Pastors nurture the Body of Christ with counseling, clothing them with Christlike armor and garments.
Teachers teach the Word of God with simplicity and wisdom.
The Church -
At GLORY House, we do not want to be just another "church". We are a group of believers, meeting in a house of worship who are a small part of the global Body of Christ often referred to in scripture as "The Church" or "The Bride of Christ". We are not a part of any denomination, because the origin of this word is also found in the root word for denominator; the part of a fraction that "divides". We do not call ourselves "a church" because this also brings division. When places refer to themselves as "a church", they isolate themselves and become independent of the one true "Church", the Bride of Christ. It will also cause pride, egos and haughty attitudes within the body.
We are called to bring forth the "next" chapter of the book of Acts (Acts 29) by allowing God to write the script in our lives as we worship and encounter Him, host His presence in our everyday lives and spread the Kingdom of God by making Him known to others.
