WHAT WE BELIEVE
We believe in one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Creator of all things.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, buried, resurrected and ascended into Heaven, and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father, and is true God and true man.
We believe the Bible in its entirety to be the inspired Word of God and the infallible rule of faith and conduct.
We believe in the resurrection of the dead, the eternal happiness of the saved and the eternal punishment of the lost.
We believe in the personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
We believe in sanctification through the Word of God by the Holy Spirit and in personal holiness of heart and life.
We believe in divine healing, through faith in the name of Jesus Christ, and that healing is included in the atonement.
We believe in water baptism, the Baptism of the Holy Ghost as distinct from the new birth, in speaking with tongues as the Spirit of God give utterance (Acts 2:4), in the gifts of the Spirit, and the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit. We believe that all are available to believers.
We believe in the Christian’s hope – the soon-coming, personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in evangelization and missionary work in accordance with the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19)
We believe in the Ordinance of the Lord’s Supper and it shall be observed regularly as enjoined by the Scriptures (Luke 22:19-20, I Corinthians 11:23-26)
