We Believe
WE BELIEVE that the Bible is the only infallible, inspired Word of God, and therefore, our final authority in matters of faith and practice.
(II Timothy 3:16,17; II Peter 1:21)
WE BELIEVE in the eternally existing, triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (I John 5:7) and in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit being the only one true living God.(Genesis 1:1; Matthew 28:19; John 10:30)
WE BELIEVE in the Deity of Jesus Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35); His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, 7:26); His miracles(John 2:11); His death through His shed blood (I Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9); His bodily resurrection (John 11:25, I Corinthians 15:4); His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19, Hebrews 12:2); where He now acts as Mediator and Advocate (I Timothy 2:5, I John 2:1).
WE BELIEVE in the personal return of our Lord Jesus Christ in power and glory to reign in righteousness. (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11)
WE BELIEVE in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost – they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29, 11:25), and that Heaven is the place of eternal blessedness for the saved (Revelation 21:1-5) and that Hell is the place of everlasting separation from God. (Revelation 20:14,15)
WE BELIEVE that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful men and that all who receive the lord Jesus Christ by faith are born again and become children of God. (John 3:16-19, 5:24; Romans 3:23, 6:23, 5:8-9; Ephesians 2:8-10, Titus 3:5)
WE BELIEVE in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit whose indwelling in all believers enables them to live hold and Christ-like lives. (Romans 8:13-14; I Corinthians 3:16, 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30, 5:15-21)
WE BELIEVE in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and in the importance of His followers maintaining good works as evidence of faith in Christ.(Romans 8:9; I Corinthians 12:12-13; Galatians 3:26-28; Ephesians 4:3-6; James 1:22, 25)
