We believe the Holy Spirit is the Helper that Jesus promised that comes to exalt Jesus, convict us of sin, regenerate our hearts, lead us to truth, and empower us for spiritual life (John 14).

We believe in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance. (Acts 2:4, Acts 2:38-39, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 19:2, Acts 1:8, Matthew 3:11).

We believe that the church of Jesus Christ should operate in all the 9 gifts of the Spirit to demonstrate the power of the Gospel. The Holy Spirit distributes to the believer Spiritual Gifts as He wills.

These gifts differ according to the grace given to us. As members of the Body of Christ we should work together using the manifestation of the Spirit through those different gifts for the common good.
- (Romans 12:6-8; 1 Corinthians 12:4-12)

We believe in divine healing by the power of God through the prayer of faith, laying on hands and speaking the Word.

- (Isaiah 53:4, Matthew 8:16-17, Mark 16:18, John 5:6-14 and I Peter 2:24)

Washing the saints’ feet is scripturally sound, but we at the Vancouver Voice of Hope Church believe that the deeper meaning of what Jesus did , was teaching humility before one another. But this is optional to those who wants to practice this. (John 13:4-17). The Lord’s Supper, consisting of the elements – bread and fruit of the vine – is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ. (II Peter 1:4); a memorial of His suffering and death (I Corinthians 11:26); and a prophecy of His second coming (I Corinthians 11:26); and is enjoined on all believers “until He comes!”

The Vancouver Voice of Hope Church believes in the Bible that without holiness, no man shall see the Lord. The doctrine of sanctification is a definite, yet progressive work of grace. (Hebrews 12:14).

Sanctification is an act of separation from that which is evil and of dedication unto God. (Romans 12:1-2; I Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 13:12). Sanctification is obtainable as a second definite work of grace, received by faith in the blood of Christ.

Sanctification is realized in the believer by recognizing his identification with Christ in His death and resurrection, and by faith reckoning daily upon the fact of that union, and by offering every faculty continually to the dominion of the Holy Spirit.

Since water baptism is an outward expression of an inward work of grace, we do not practice infant baptism. However, we do encourage presenting our children to the Lord in child dedication and blessing until they are old enough to make their own choice and decision.

This is by full immersion in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit is commanded in the Scriptures. All who repent and believe in Christ as Savior and Lord are to be baptized. Thus, they declare to the world that they died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in the newness of life. - (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16; Acts 10:47-48; Romans 6:4).
