FRESH ANOINTING INTERNATIONAL CHURCH
In March of 2001 the Lord commissioned Dr. A. O. Itiola to start Fresh Anointing International Church in Brooklyn, New York.
No one expected that a church with such a humble beginning would grow as large as it has within such a short period of time.
FAIC now has branches in the United States and over fifty congregations in five other countries. Plans are under way to open up more churches in the United States and other parts of the world.
We believe that as the church continues to be led by the Holy Spirit, the best is yet to come.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to reach and train people for ministry, to transform the community and to touch the world with the radically transforming gospel of Jesus Christ.
OUR MISSION
We will minister to the Lord through Worship, as we Win others by our Witness, while fellowshipping in a Warm environment, resulting in a mature Christ-like Walk that ministers to the whole person.
OUR BELIEF
The Holy Bible

The Holy Bible is the inspired word of God and is the final authority in all matters concerning Christian conduct.
The Godhead
Matthew 3:16-17; II Corinthians 13:14
The Godhead consists of three separate, distinct and recognizable personalities, the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, united in one.

The virgin birth brought forth Jesus, the only begotten Son of God. He was crucified, He died, and He arose to ascend into heaven.

Psalms 51: 5; Romans 3:23
Total Depravity is the condition of all individuals since the fall and all were subject to God’s wrath and condemnation.

Repentance is the complete turning away from sins, which is required of every sinner who desires to embrace the new birth.
Restitution
Genesis 20:1-8; Luke 19:8-9
Restitution is making amends for wrongs done against others, so as to have a conscience void of offense towards God and man.
Justification
Isaiah 1:18; Galatians 2:16
Justification is the act of God’s grace, whereby one receives forgiveness and remission of sins.

Water Baptism is the act of one immersion in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost and it is essential after reconciliation with God.
The Lord’s Supper
Corinthians 11:23-30; Luke 21:17-20
The Lord’s Supper was instituted by Jesus Christ, so that believers might partake to “shew the Lord’s death till He come”.
Sanctification

Sanctification is a definite act of God’s grace, whereby a believer’s heart is purified and made holy.
The Holy Ghost Baptism
I Corinthians 12:1-31; Acts 2:1-18
The Holy Ghost Baptism is the endowment of God’s power and is the promise of the Father. The initial evidence of speaking in tongues accompanies this gift.
Redemption

Redemption from the curse of the law is available to all people through the sanctified death of Jesus Christ.
Personal Evangelism

Personal Evangelism is a God-given and God-ordained ministry of every believer.
Marriage
Matthew 19:3-9; Ephesians 5:31; Matthew 5:31-32
Marriage is the perfect will and institution of God. It is binding for life, which must not be broken except one spouse, should pass away.
Rapture
I Corinthians 15:51-58; Luke 21:33-36
Rapture is the catching away from the earth of all living saints and all who died in the Lord. The Rapture will take place before The Tribulation and it can happen at any moment.
Resurrection
Job 19:25-27; Daniel 12:2
Resurrection is inevitable to all who have ever lived. Some will resurrect to honor and glory and others to everlasting shame and contempt.
The Great Tribulation
Mark 13:19; Matthew 24:21-22
The Great Tribulation will occur after The Rapture. It is a time of great suffering on the earth when the Antichrist will take possession of the world for a reign of terror.
The Second Coming of Christ
Matthew 25:31-46; II Thessalonians 1:7-10
The Second Coming of Christ will be as literal and visible as His going away. He will descend to execute judgment upon the ungodly.
The Millennial Reign

The Millennial Reign is 1,000 years literal of Jesus on the earth. At this time, He will judge the nations that dwell on earth.
The Great White Throne Judgment
Romans 2:15-16; Revelations 20:11-15
The Great White Throne Judgment is God’s final judgment of all the living and the dead. All souls will stand before their maker to give account of their lives.

A New Heaven and Earth will made by God and the redeemed shall dwell with God forever.
