Statement  of Faith

 

 

Apache Youth Ministries (AYM) is a non-denominational, youth organization that serves the White Mountain Apache Tribe on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. We strongly believe that our most valuable tool for evangelism is love that meets both physical and spiritual needs through relationships based on the teachings and example modeled by Jesus.

 

At Apache Youth Ministries, we live in the White Mountain Apache community, in relationships of relevant love, mentoring, and discipleship. In these relationships, we pray that God will touch their hearts and allow us to share the hope we have in Jesus. We believe that God is pleased whenever needs are met and we trust that He will use our efforts to produce change and growth as He chooses.

 

  •  We believe that the Holy Scriptures, consisting of Old and New Testaments, were originally given by God, divinely inspired, without error, infallible, and are entirely trustworthy and the supreme authority in all matters of faith and practice

  • We believe in one God, Creator of all things, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 

  • We believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, His virgin birth, sinless life, divine miracles, vicarious and atoning death on the cross, bodily resurrection, ascension and exaltation, mediatorial work, and personal, imminent, and visible return in power and glory. 

  • We believe that Adam and Eve, created in the image of God, were tempted by Satan, the god of this world, and fell; that their sin has passed to all people, who as a result are lost, are unable to save themselves from the wrath of God, and need to be saved. 

  • We believe that salvation is a gift of God to those who repent and personally believe in Jesus Christ; that it is accomplished by God’s grace through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit. 

  • We believe in God the Holy Spirit who indwells all believers enabling them to live holy lives, and to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ despite opposition from the world, the flesh, and Satan. 

  • We believe in the spiritual unity of all true believers, the universal Church, the Body of Christ. 

  • We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life with God, they that are lost unto the resurrection of eternal condemnation separated from God. 

  • We believe that Christ commanded the Church to go into all the world and make disciples of all peoples, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and teaching those who believe to obey all that Christ commanded.

"GO THEREFORE AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL THE NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE FATHER AND THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, TEACHING THEM TO OBSERVE ALL THINGS THAT I HAVE COMMANDED YOU; AND LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, EVEN TO THE END OF THE AGE." MATTHEW 28:19-20
