Punto de Partida

Mannahouse es un hogar, ¡y este es tu punto de partida!

Garth Elliott

Todos estamos en un caminar para convertirnos en quienes fuimos originalmente diseñados, creados cuidadosamente por el Dios del universo.

Este caminar requiere avance -- encontrar tu lugar y tu paso conforme avanzas hacia las promesas de Dios sobre tu vida.

Tu familia de Mannahouse quiere colaborar contigo conforme avanzas HACIA ARRIBA, HACIA ADENTRO Y HACIA AFUERA en este caminar.

Tu primer paso es unirte a Punto de Partida. Aquí, podrás aprender sobre Mannahouse y recibir una invitación a unirte a nuestra comunidad de seguidores de Cristo. Punto de Partida sucede todos los domingos después de la alabanza. Van al servicio como usualmente lo haces y luego, el anfitrión te presentará a tu(s) maestro(s) y te dirigirán al salón para asistir a esta amigable experiencia de un domingo.

“Jesus replied, ‘You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.” (Matthew 22:37–40 NLT)

And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18–20 NLT)

Mannahouse envisions itself as a thriving church that impacts people everywhere.

FAQ's: Tell Me What Mannahouse Teaches

  1. Realize that God has not been first place in your life and ask Him to forgive your sin. (1 John 1:9 NIV)
  2. Believe that Jesus died to pay for your sins and that He rose from the dead and is alive today. (Romans 10:9–10 NLT)

Yes! Water baptism is the first defining moment of a new Christian and a step of obedience. We practice baptism by full immersion in water, which is the way Jesus was baptized and the way the Bible describes it.

“Peter’s words pierced their hearts, and they said to him and to the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what should we do?’ Peter replied, ‘Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.'” (Acts 2:37–38 NLT)

1. Follow the example set by Jesus.
2. Demonstrate your changed life.
3. Declare your commitment publicly.
4. Take a first step of obedience.

Yes! The Holy Spirit is the person and power of Almighty God who comes to live in us.

“I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, so that He may be with you forever.” (John 14:16 NASB)

We encounter the Holy Spirit in predominant ways…

1. You are born of the Spirit which happens at the moment of salvation. (John 3:5 NLT)
2. You are baptized in the Spirit after salvation to be empowered by the Holy Spirit. (Luke 3:16; Acts 1:8, 2:4, 8:14–17, 10:44–48, 19:1–6 NIV) The primary evidence of being baptized in the Holy Spirit is speaking in a spiritual language (commonly referred to as “speaking in tongues”). (Acts 19:2, 6 NLT)
3. You are filled continually with the Spirit, part of an ongoing experience of living a Spirit-filled life. (Ephesians 5:18–19 NIV)
