Statement of Faith

We believe that Jesus Christ, born of a virgin, is the Son of God who lived a sinless life, died on the cross for the sins of humanity, and was raised from the dead on the third day. Through His atoning sacrifice, forgiveness of sins and eternal life are made available to all who believe. Jesus Christ now sits at the right hand of God the Father and intercedes for His people (Isaiah 7:14; Hebrews 4:15; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Romans 8:34).

We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone and not by human works. Through repentance and faith, believers are forgiven, made new in Christ, and indwelt by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 2:8–9; Romans 10:9–10; 2 Corinthians 5:17). We believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, and those who follow Him are called to surrender their lives to His authority, living in obedience to His Word and seeking to reflect His character in every area of life (Romans 10:9; Luke 9:23).

We believe the Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God and the foundation for our faith, teaching, and conduct (2 Timothy 3:16–17; Psalm 119:105).

We believe the Church is the body of Christ, made up of all believers who are called to love God, love one another, and live lives that reflect the character of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:12–27; John 13:34–35).

We believe that the Holy Spirit continues to work in power today. Believers are empowered by the Holy Spirit to proclaim the Gospel, pray for the sick, bring freedom to those oppressed, and minister in the authority of Jesus Christ (Matthew 4:23; Luke 9:1–2; Luke 10:9,19; James 5:14–16; Mark 16:17–18).

We believe that all followers of Jesus Christ are called to participate in the Great Commission, making disciples of all nations and sharing the Gospel with the world (Matthew 28:18–20; Acts 1:8). We believe that God’s redemptive plan includes people from every nation, tribe, people, and language, and we are committed to sharing the love of Christ with the world (Revelation 7:9).

We believe that Jesus Christ will return again to fulfill God’s redemptive plan and establish His eternal kingdom (Acts 1:11; Revelation 22:12).

As a ministry, we seek to serve in unity with believers from different Christian backgrounds while remaining faithful to the truth of Scripture. Those serving with KBIM are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that reflects the character of Christ, demonstrating humility, integrity, love, and the fruit of the Spirit in their lives and ministry (Ephesians 4:1–6; Galatians 5:22–23).
