Kaohsiung International Church

KIC is a Church Family of English-speaking believers who love God and want to become more like Jesus by God’s grace and love. We invite you to come and feel the love and growth of spirit. It is all for His glory, to increase His fame in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.

Description

We gather together on Sundays at 4:30 PM to celebrate God & what He has done as the Creator, Provider and Sustainer of our lives. We sing & praise Him, listen to relevant teachings from the Bible, then fellowship together in many different ways!

We are a family that worship God with all our hearts and spirit. We believe in worshipping completely & totally in full surrender to God alone. We are passionate worshipping Him with our hearts, our minds, & our spirits — our total person!

In our congregation you will find Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Pentecostals, Reformed, Non-Denominational, along with others. All are welcome. We are Christians of God’s whole church— brothers & sisters in Christ who are all searching for the real, authentic life in God found only through Jesus Christ.

We do not have all the answers, but God does, and our journey with Him isn’t over yet. We believe that we exist to help believers find their purpose and destiny in God. If you just want to relax, enjoy the coffee, the tea, and the friendship & ‘check us out’ for a while then we are just happy to have you with us. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Core Values
(1) The Bible is inerrant in the original manuscripts and is the foundation for our faith and practice.
(2) God is one, eternal, timeless, and everywhere. He created all things and then lived in His creation as Jesus Christ. Christ, through His sacrifice, is the only path to salvation by Grace through Faith. The power of His Holy Spirit is essential for life-change and fruitfulness. All believers should seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
(3) Servant-leadership (humility and sacrifice) must be modeled by everyone involved in leadership of the church. Love and personal warmth should be modeled by the leadership and permeate all church activites and relationships. The first shall be last and the last shall be first; those who try to find their life will lose it, and those who give up their life shall find it in Christ.

Statement of Faith:
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God and the absolute standard by which we measure all things.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is empowered to be a witness for Christ and is enabled to live a godly life.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are also in agreement with other major Christian faith statements such as the Apostles Creed and more recent faith statements made by orthodox, evangelical, Protestant bodies of Christians.
