What we believe

​

• We believe in the plenary-verbal inspiration of the accepted canon of the Scriptures as originally given and that they are infallibly and uniquely authoritative and free from error of any sort in all matters with which they deal. 

 

• We believe in the Eternal God-head who has revealed Himself as ONE God existing in THREE persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit; distinguishable but indivisible. 

 

• We believe in the creation, test and fall of man as recorded in Genesis; his total spiritual depravity and inability to attain to divine righteousness. 

 

• We believe that sin is a transgressing of, or falling short of, God’s standard in action, thought, and character. All individuals are born with a sin nature that affects their motivation, affection, volition, and actions. The results of sin include separation from God, and death. 

 

• We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of men, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, fully God and fully man. 

 

• We believe Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again the third day, and personally appeared to His disciples. 

 

• We believe in the bodily ascension of Jesus to heaven, His exaltation and personal, literal and bodily coming again the second time for the Church. 

 

• We believe in the salvation of sinners by grace, through repentance and faith in the perfect and sufficient work of the cross of Calvary by which we obtain remission of sins. 

 

• We believe in the necessity of water baptism by immersion in the name of the Eternal Godhead in order to fulfill the command of Christ. 

 

• We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a distinct aspect of the Christian foundational experience with the primary evidence of speaking in tongues (another language) as well as evidences such as empowerment to witness, to conquer sin and to live a holy life. 

 

• We believe in the Spirit-filled life, a life of separation from the world and the perfecting of holiness in the fear of God as an expression of Christian faith. 

​​

• We believe that since the Bible is the inspired Word of God, it is then authoritative in all areas of human behavior, including marriage, family, sexuality, morality, and ethics.

​​

• We believe in the operation of the gifts of the Spirit as manifested in the Early Church and enumerated in 1 Corinthians 12-14.

​​

• We believe in the healing of the body by Divine Power, or Divine healing in its varied aspects as practiced in the Early Church.

​​

• We believe in the Table of the Lord, commonly called Communion or the Lord’s Supper, for believers.

​​

• We believe in eternal life for believers and eternal punishment for unbelievers.

​​

• We believe in the reality and personality of Satan and eternal judgment of Satan and his angels.
