Doctrine and Theology
Apostolic Messianics believe in Oneness theology - that is, they reject the mainstream Christian Trinitarian view of God and assert that Father, Son and Holy Spirit are all the same person and simply different modes of operation of God. They follow Acts 2:38 as the plan of faith and grace salvation. They believe in holiness and separation from all things evil and sinful. They observe the Lord's Communion only on Passover according to the Jewish calendar - on the same night Jesus and the Apostles celebrated his memorial. They believe in the currency of the gifts of the Holy Spirit in the Church and in miracles. They also believe in the ministry of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers.

Famous quotes containing the words doctrine and/or theology:
“You ask if there is no doctrine of sorrow in my philosophy. Of acute sorrow I suppose that I know comparatively little. My saddest and most genuine sorrows are apt to be but transient regrets. The place of sorrow is supplied, perchance, by a certain hard and proportionately barren indifference. I am of kin to the sod, and partake of its dull patience,—in winter expecting the sun of spring.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Only men of moral and mental force, of a patriotic regard for the relationship of the two races, can be of real service as ministers in the South. Less theology and more of human brotherhood, less declamation and more common sense and love for truth, must be the qualifications of the new ministry that shall yet save the race from the evils of false teaching.”
—Fannie Barrier Williams (1855–1944)
