What We Believe

GEMS Global is rooted and founded upon a Reformed understanding of God’s Word and, accordingly,
the expression of Christian faith. While we are non-denominational, this Reformed ‘Accent’ (explained
here) has defined our ministry since its inception and continues to guide our core beliefs.

  • We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis
    1:1,2; John 1:1-5,14).
  • We believe the Bible to be the infallible, inspired Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16-17).
  • We believe that God created all things from nothing. He created men and women in His image and
    without sin (Genesis 1:27).
  • We believe that man rebelled against God and sinned. Therefore, all humans are sinners (Romans 3:23).
  • We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, and is truly
    God and truly man (Luke 1:35).
  • We believe that Jesus died on a cross to pay the price of our sins. Those who accept Him as Savior
    are justified by His blood (Isaiah 53:5 and Romans 5:8-9).
  • We believe that Jesus arose bodily from the grave and returned to Heaven where He is our High
    Priest (1 Corinthians 15:3,4; Hebrews 4:14-16).
  • We believe that the Holy Spirit bestows the gift of faith whereby mankind is born again in Christ and
    becomes a child of God (1 John 3:1; Romans 8:16-17).
  • We believe that the Holy Spirit abides with and comforts us until Christ’s return (John 14:16).
  • We believe that when Jesus returns from Heaven all will be raised – those who believe will have eternal
    life in Him; those who do not believe will be eternally condemned (John 5:28-29).
