Statement of Faith:
• Stonecroft Ministries believes in the supernatural and total,
full, complete inspiration of the Scriptures— the Bible is
free from error and its teachings and authority are absolute, supreme
and final.
• We believe the Trinity of the Godhead—God, the Father;
God, the Son; and God, the Holy Spirit;
• We believe the personality of God; the personality and deity
of Jesus Christ (Jesus Christ and God are one; Jesus Christ is God
incarnate in the flesh), begotten of the Holy Spirit, born of the
Virgin Mary, very God and very Man; the personality of the Holy
Spirit;
• We believe the resurrection of Jesus Christ—that His
body was raised from the dead, according to the Scriptures and that
He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God as the
believer’s Advocate;
• We believe in the sinfulness of man—that all human
beings are born with a sinful nature, are totally depraved, and
need a Saviour from sin;
• We believe in the atonement—that Jesus Christ became
the sinner’s sacrifice before God when He shed His blood and
died as the payment for the sins of the whole world;
• We believe the necessity of the new birth—salvation
is by grace, through faith, and not of works. Saving faith will
maintain good works in the life of the believer;
• We believe in the literal resurrection of the body—both
of the just and the unjust;
• We believe in the everlasting blessedness of the saved and
the everlasting punishment of the lost;
• We believe in the evangelization of the world—the
supreme mission of God’s people in this age is to preach the
Gospel to every person;
• We believe in the second coming of Christ, according to
the Scriptures.
Finally Jenny introduced the Africa Women’s Empowerment
Program (AWEP)
