Our Statement of Faith
Father’s House Church Believes…
In the Holy Bible
We believe in the Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality and the proper conduct of mankind and is the sole and final source of all that we believe.
One God in Three Persons
We believe that there is only one God eternally existing in three persons, The Trinity. Namely, the Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus is the only begotten Son of the Father, which was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin. We believe 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 and is in intercessory.
God’s Loving Provision for Humankind
We believe that we all are the divine creation of God, created in His image. We believe that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. That Salvation, which is offered through Gods Love, is through repentance and necessary for forgiveness of sins. That justification, regeneration and the New Birth are attained through the blood of Jesus. We believe that subsequent to Salvation is Sanctification through faith in the blood of Christ, The Word of God, and the revelation of the Holy Spirit. In addition we believe in the bodily resurrection and eternal life for the righteous, and in eternal punishment for the wicked.
Divine Healing
All who desire should ask of the Lord and he shall heal the sick and deliver the oppressed.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit
Subsequent to Salvation and increased sanctification and can be evident with the speaking of tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
Second Coming of Christ
We believe in the rapture of all believers living or dead, by our Lord and King Jesus Christ. We believe in the future establishment of Christ’s Millennial Kingdom and in the eternal New Heaven and New Earth.
Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to operate in Love in all of our affairs, to love our neighbors, to love the stranger, to love those of all backgrounds, cultures and ethnicities, the widows and the orphans; and above all else Love God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength.
TO SERVE
It is the mission of Fathers House Church to serve God fervently in our local community of Jones Creek in addition to the Southern Brazoria County area. Our service mission is to strive for unity in our community and within the Body of Christ. We strive to serve as indicated by early believers in Acts Chapter 2. We also strive to serve domestic and foreign missions and missionaries to influence the advancement of the Gospel of Christ here at home and abroad to all those who do not know Him. Lastly our mission is to stay ever prayerful seeking Christ and staying constant in the word of God until the day of the Lord’s return.
