Copper Mountain is a fellowship of the Assemblies of God.  Our foundational beliefs are:

• The Scriptures are inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
  • 2 Timothy 3:15-17
  • 1 Thessalonians 2:13
  • 2 Peter 1:21

• There is only One True God–revealed in three persons...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).
  • Deuteronomy 6:4
  • Isaiah 43:10,11
  • Matthew 28:19
  • Luke 3:22

• In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God's son, Jesus was both human and divine.
  • Matthew 1:23
  • Hebrews 7:26
  • Acts 2:22
  • 1 Corinthians 15:3
  • Matthew 28:6
  • Acts 1:9

• Though originally good, Man willingly fell to sin–ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
  • Genesis 1:26,27
  • Genesis 2:17
  • Genesis 3:6
  • Romans 5:12-19
    

• Every person can have restored fellowship with God through salvation (accepting Christ's offer of forgiveness for sin).
  • Luke 24:47
  • John 3:3
  • Romans 10:13-15
  • Ephesians 2:8
  • Titus 2:11
  • Titus 3:5-7

• And practice two ordinances—(1) Water baptism by immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation, and (2) Holy communion (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation.
  • Matthew 28:19
  • Mark 16:16
  • Acts 10:47,48
  • Romans 6:4

• The baptism in the Holy Spirit is a special experience following salvation that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times.
  • Luke 24:49
  • Acts 1:4
  • Acts 1:8
  • 1 Corinthians 12:1-31
  • Acts 8:12-17
  • Acts 10:44-46
  • Acts 11:14-16

• The initial physical evidence of the baptism in the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues, as experienced on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts and the Epistles.
  • Acts 2:4
  • 1 Corinthians 12:4-10
  • 1 Corinthians 12:28

• Sanctification initially occurs at salvation and is not only a declaration that a believer is holy, but also a progressive lifelong process of separating from evil as believers continually draw closer to God and become more Christlike.

  • 1 Thessalonians 5:23

• The Church has a mission to seek and save all who are lost in sin. We believe the Church is the Body of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout time, have accepted God's offer of redemption (regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son Jesus Christ.
  • Ephesians 1:22,23
  • Ephesians 2:22
  • Hebrews 12:23

• A divinely called and scripturally ordained leadership ministry serves the Church. The Bible teaches that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves to reach others for Christ, to worship Him with other believers, and to build up or edify the body of believers–the Church.
  • Mark 16:15-20
  • John 4:23,24
  • Ephesians 4:11-16

  • Isaiah 53:4,5
  • Matthew 8:16,17
  • James 5:14-16

• In The Blessed Hope—When Jesus raptures His Church prior to His return to Earth (the second coming). At this future moment in time all believers who have died will rise from their graves and will meet the Lord in the air, and Christians who are alive will be caught up with them, to be with the Lord forever.
  • 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17
  • Romans 8:23
  • Titus 2:13
  • 1 Corinthians 15:51,52

  • Matthew 24:27
  • Matthew 24:30
  • Revelation 1:7
