This is hope
Helping hurting people find living hope in Christ
Hope Tabernacle is a local church with a global vision. Our desire is for people to experience God in a personal and powerful way. God is not just a historical figure, but He is someone we can personally encounter and experience. It is our sincere belief that God is the hope that all hurting people need.
Our Pastor
Derek Borders was elected as lead pastor of Hope Tabernacle in June of 2021. After graduating High School in Norman, Oklahoma, he married his beautiful wife, Amanda. They now have three children — Bryce, Cayden, and Edyn.
Pastor Borders is an ordained minister with the United Pentecostal Church International and studied Graphic Communications at Oklahoma City Community College. Derek and Amanda love ministry, having served for nineteen years as student pastors and ten concurrent years as Assistant to the Pastor in Norman. Their heartbeat is to see people discipled and living in their purpose for God’s kingdom.
We’d love to meet you.
Our Beliefs
About our purpose
We believe in the great commission and are endeavoring to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with love, mercy, and compassion.
About god
We believe there is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4). He is the creator of heaven and earth and all living beings. He has revealed Himself to humanity as the Father (Creator), as the Son (Savior), and as the Holy Ghost (indwelling Spirit).
About Salvation
We believe the plan of salvation is most concisely recorded in Acts 2:38-39 and can be found woven and confirmed throughout the Bible. Salvation consists of deliverance from all sin through the blood of Jesus Christ. This is accomplished through repentance from sin, baptism (by immersion) in the name of Jesus Christ, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
About the gifts of the spirit
We believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. He ministers to His people through tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy, words of knowledge and wisdom, discerning of spirits, faith, working of miracles, healing, helps, and government. (Mark 16:15-18; Acts 5:16; 2 Corinthians 12:1-11)
About Water Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sin. Through baptism, we identify with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. (Romans 6:3-6; Colossians 2:11-14; Acts 2:38)
About the future
We believe that the church will be raptured by Christ before the great tribulation and will exist with Him forever in eternity. (1 Thessalonians 4:15-18; 1 Corinthians 15: 51-52; 1 Thessalonians 1:10)
