I believe because Jesus saved me. I believe in prayer because it works. I believe in baptism because it's biblical and it works. I believe in speaking in tongues because it's biblical and it works.

I believe that life will back up what we believe about the Word. First, read the Word and put it into practice. If it doesn't work over a lengthy trial period and God tells you you are wrong, change what you are doing. That's why I believe what I believe.
