The Holy Scriptures
We believe the Bible is God-inspired (2 Timothy 3:16,17).
The Eternal Godhead
We believe God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Ghost (2 Corinthians 13:14).
The Fall Of Man
We believe that man was created in the image of God, but that by voluntary
disobedience he fell from perfection (Romans 5:12).
The Plan Of Salvation
We believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, signing the
pardon of all who believe on Him (John 3:16; Romans 5:8).
Salvation Through Grace
We believe that we have no righteousness and must come to God pleading the
righteousness of Christ (Ephesians 2:8).
Repentance And Acceptance
We believe that upon sincere repentance, and a whole-hearted acceptance of
Christ, we are justified before God (I John 1:9).
The New Birth
We believe that the change which takes place in the heart and life at
conversion is a very real one (2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 2:20).
Daily Christian Living
We believe that it is the will of God that we be sanctified daily, growing
constantly in the faith (Hebrews 6:1).
Baptism And The Lord's Supper
We believe that baptism by immersion is an outward sign of an inward work
(Matt. 28:19). We believe in the commemoration of the Lord's Supper by the
symbolic use of the bread and juice of the vine (I Corinthians 11:24, 25).
Baptism With The Holy Spirit
We believe that the Baptism with the Holy Spirit is to endue the believer
with power; and that His incoming is after the same manner as in Bible days
(Acts 2:4).
The Spirit-Filled Life
We believe that it is the will of God that we walk in the Spirit daily
(Ephesians 4:30-32).
The gifts And Fruit Of The Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit has gifts to bestow upon the Christian; and
that we should show spiritual fruit as evidence of a Spirit-filled life (I
Corinthians 12:1-11; Galatians 5:22).
Moderation
We believe that the experience and daily walk of the believer should never
lead him into extremes of fanaticisms (Philippians 4:5).
Divine Healing
We believe that divine healing is the power of Christ to heal the
physically sick in answer to the prayer of faith (James 5:14-16).
The Second Coming Of Christ
We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent (I
Thessalonians 4:16, 17).
Church Relationship
We believe it is our sacred duty to identify ourselves with the visible
Body of Christ (Acts 16:5; Hebrews 10:25).
Civil Government
We believe that rulers should be upheld at all times except in things
opposed to the will of God (Romans 13:1-5).
The Final Judgement
We believe that all shall stand some day before the judgement seat of God,
and there receive eternal life or death (2 Corinthians 5:10).
Heaven
We believe that Heaven is the glorious eternal home of born-again believers
(John 14:1-3; Revelation 7:15-17).
Hell
We believe that hell is the place of eternal torment for all who reject
Christ as the Savior (Revelation 20:10,15).
Evangelism
We believe that soul winning is the most important responsibility of the
Church (James 5:20).
Tithes And Offerings
We believe that the method ordained of God for the support and spread of
His cause is by giving of tithes and free-will offerings (Malachi 3:10; 2
Corinthians 9:7).
