The Lifebuilders Church was founded as Oakdale Church Of God, and moved to it's current location in 1976. Although the location and name has changed, our values, our beliefs, and the name on whom we trust for our salvation...has not. Our worship style is a blend of traditional and contemporary. Everyone is welcome to come and freely worship the name of Jesus with us. We are more than just a church...we are a family!
Our beliefs are founded in the delcaration of faith, as we are a church of God. We believe:
In the verbal inspiration of the Bible
In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as Intercessor.
That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
that justification, regeneration and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the word and by the Holy Ghost.
Holiness to be God's standard of living for His people
In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart
In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that is the initial evidence of the baptism in the Holy Ghost.
In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement
In the Lord's Supper and washing of the saints' feet.
in the premillenial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.
in the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous and eternal punishment for the wicked.
