What We Believe
Our Foundation
As an ecumenical fellowship, Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship welcomes believers and ministries across denominational lines. What unites us is not a single tradition, but our shared commitment to the Truth of God received in Christ and to the standards of the inspired Holy Scriptures.
The Holy Scriptures
We adhere to the standards of the inspired Holy Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments as the Verbum Dei — the Word of God — and as the governing guidance for our life and ministry together in Christ Jesus.
Jesus Christ
We believe in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. We proclaim and never forget His death, burial, resurrection, and second coming for His bride.
The Ordinances
We hold to the ordinances, doctrines, rites, and rituals of the Christian Church, and our ministers are willing and able to administer them:
- Water Baptism
- Holy Communion
- Foot Washing
Holiness & Consecrated Living
We believe the call of God requires a consecrated life. Our members commit to walking in love continuously, to a life of prayer, fasting, and studying God’s word, and to exemplifying holiness within and outside of this fellowship, serving with all modesty and humility.
Our Governing Order
The life of the fellowship is guided by the Canons, Concordat, Liturgy, and Discipline of Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship, under the leadership of the Presiding Bishop & Chief Apostle and the Executive Board of Trustees.
