OUR CORE BELIEFS 

THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe in the existence of the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity and in His interaction with man.  We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as manifested by the fruit and the gifts of the Spirit.​

THE SACRED SCRIPTURE 

We believe in the scripture as the inspired Word of God and that it is the complete revelation of God's will for mankind.  We believe in the absolute authority of the scripture to govern the affairs of men.

​STEWARDSHIP 

We believe that every man is the steward of his life and resources which ultimately belong to God.  We believe that tithing is a measure of obedience to the scriptural principals of stewardship.​

THE CHURCH   

We believe in the church as the eternal and universal Body of Christ consisting of all those who have accepted the work of the atonement.  We believe in the need for a local assembly of believers for the purpose of evangelism and edification.​

PRAYER AND PRAISE  

We believe in the worship of the Lord through singing, clapping, and the lifting of hands.  We believe in the authority of the believer to ask freely of the Lord for his needs.​

BODY MINISTRY   

We believe in the ministry of the Holy Spirit to the body through the anointing of oil by the elders of the church.​

EVANGELISM 

We believe that evangelism is the obligation of every follower of Jesus Christ.  The Lord commands us to go out and make disciples of all the earth​

WATER BAPTISM 

We believe in the ordinance of water baptism by immersion in obedience to the word of God.  All those who have accepted Christ as their person savior should be baptized in water as a public confession of their faith in Christ and to experience what the Bible calls the "circumcision of the Spirit."

​OUR COMMITMENT TO ISREAL 

We believe in the promise of Genesis 12:3 regarding the Jewish people and the nation of Israel.  We believe that this is an eternal covenant between God and the seed of Abraham to which God is faithful.​

THE PRIESTHOOD OF THE BELIEVER 

We believe that every believer has a unique relationship to the Lord.  As His children, every Christian has immediate access to the throne of Grace and the ability to manifest the power of the Lord Jesus Christ in ministry.

OUR CHURCH MISSION

Our Mission at OIWC is to see the gospel preached to all generations of people in our community and to the world.  We also want to build up, encourage and connect those that are already believers in Christ and see them fulfill what God has called them to do to advance the kingdom, "For such a time as this."

 

OUR CHURCH BELIEFS

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ as the only Gotten Son of God. We believe in His substitutionary death for all men, His resurrection, and His eventual return to judge the world.

SALVATION

We believe all men are born with a sinful nature and that the work of the Cross was to redeem man from the power of sin. We believe that this salvation is available to all who will receive it.
