What We Believe
Desert Stream Ministries is rooted in the essence of Divine
Revelation; namely, that the Second Person of the Triune God took on the human
nature, giving us a share in His divine nature. God’s act of creating male and
female persons is revelatory of who He is. Therefore, the complementarity of
man and woman is essential to Living Waters.
We believe that the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word
of God, authoritative in the development of doctrine and instruction in right
living.
We believe
in God,
the Father
Almighty,
Creator of
heaven and earth,
and in Jesus
Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was
conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the
Virgin Mary,
suffered
under Pontius Pilate,
was
crucified, died and was buried;
He descended
into hell;
on the third
day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended
into heaven,
and is
seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from there
He will come to judge the living and the dead.
We believe
in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy
Catholic Church,
the
communion of Saints,
the
forgiveness of sins,
the
resurrection of the body,
and life
everlasting.
We believe that the Church is an “inn” (Lk 10:34), a refuge of
encountering Jesus of Nazareth, who desires to enter into our wounded human
nature and transform it.
