Foundational Values
 


Holiness

The Bible declares, 'The holiness without which no one can see God.'   Peter admonishes Christians, 'Be holy as your heavenly Father is holy.'   And Moses emphasizes, 'Holiness unto the Lord!'   Holiness attracts an unusual, unique and powerful presence of God that words cannot express and human minds cannot comprehend.  
In the Old Testament, anytime God visited His people, he urged them to sanctify themselves, and so in our days.   Being 'holy' is being set apart for God - in IPC, we are set apart for God.
We believe that holiness is of the essence in bringing down and fully experiencing the presence and power of God.   We believe that the level of holiness God expects of us as His children is achievable.   We preach holiness in its totality and entirety, and admonish our membership to live it out!   Holiness is a command and not an option.

Integrity

David declares, 'My integrity and uprightness hath upheld me (Psalm 25:12).'   Solomon adds, 'A man of integrity walks securely but he who takes crooked paths will be found out (Proverbs 10:9).'
IPC believes in leading and living a high standard of moral life, as the Holy Spirit enables us.   In all our dealings we do it as unto the Lord.
We preach uprightness believing that this value will take us far and bring to pass all that the Lord has said concerning us.

Accountability

Bible admonishes us that every man's work will be passed through fire and therefore, we at IPC believe in accountability.
As a church we are first of all accountable to God in all our dealings.  
Our pastoral board and board of trustees share an interdependence culture of accountability and both are accountable to the Solid Rock Full Gospel Baptist Church Conference.  
Business meetings held quarterly is an accountability check of leadership to membership.  
At the end of every year, there is accountability to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of all our operations.

Growth

Bible declares that, 'Jesus grew in stature and wisdom, and found favor with both God and men.   We at IPC believe that God is concerned about our physical and spiritual growth.   John declares, 'That I wish above all things that you will prosper, even as your soul prospers!'
IPC preaches balance, that is, as we excel in spiritual things so should we in physical things - marital, academic, finances, profession, etc.

Love

'Now love, hope and faith abide, but the greatest of all this is LOVE!' (1 Corinthians 13:15).
In IPC, we endeavor to show true and genuine love - agape love - to all, both within and without our walls.

PRAYER, WORD, FELLOWSHIP & EVANGELISM is our everyday way of life.
