Mission Statement
The Memorial Tabernacle Church has come together by the
Holy Spirit for the specific purpose of preaching and teaching the word
of God, (the Bible), and about Jesus Christ, God's son, and to proclaim
the gospel of the Kingdom of God to the North Oakland Community and its
environs; to bring healing to the brokenhearted and deliverance to the
oppressed; to be a center of genuine concern for those in need, a
sanctuary of community worship that is neither shallow nor restrained,
a spiritual home where members find an expression of precious love for
one another and a haven for the unsaved.
Statement of Faith
In God, as Father and Creator of the Universe; in Jesus
Christ, the Son of God, whom God and this Jesus was born of a virgin by
the power of the Spirit of God; we believe that Jesus was crucified on
the cross and that He willingly gave his life, was buried, rose again,
and will return visibly to the world; we believe that man is born in
sin, needs the work of the Holy Spirit in regeneration; we believe that
there is a continual sanctification work with keeps one clean and
separate to God for spiritual service; we believe that the gift of the
Holy Spirit is for people today and that "speaking in tongues" is
valid, but must be used wisely in church edification and privately in
personal edification; we believe in signs, wonders, miracles and
healings of mind, spirit, and body; and we believe that the Bible
reveals the plan of salvation and that the Scriptures were written down
by different men, in different localities,in different times, but all
inspired by the same God; we believe in the Bible, both Old and New
Testaments; we believe the Bible is inerrant.
