The Scriptures
     We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God, inerrant in the original writings, complete as the revelation of God's will for salvation and the supreme and final authority in all matters to which they speak.


The Trinity
     We believe in one God, creator and sustainer of all things eternally existing in three persons, the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit. These three are equal in every divine perfection and they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence and redemption.

 
God the Father

     We believe in God the Father, an infinite, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love. We believe He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of human beings, that He hears and answers prayer and that He saves from sin all who come to Him through faith in Jesus Christ alone.


God the Son -- Jesus Christ
    We believe in God the Son who is called the Lord Jesus Christ. He has precisely the same nature, attributes and perfections as God the Father and God the Holy Spirit. We believe further that He is not only true God, but true man, conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. We also believe in the sinless life of Jesus Christ, His substitutionary atonement, His bodily resurrection from the dead, His ascension into heaven, His priestly intercession on behalf of His people and His personal, visible, premillennial return from heaven.


God the Holy Spirit
     We believe in God the Holy Spirit, His personality and His work in regeneration, sanctification and preservation. His ministry is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and implement Christ’s work of redeeming the lost and empowering the believer for godly living and service.


Angels
     We believe God created an order of finite, spiritual beings called angels to serve Him and do His will. They are distinct from human beings. We further believe the Scriptures divide angels into two classes; good or holy angels and evil angels or demons. The holy angels are obedient spirits glorifying God and ministering to the heirs of salvation. The evil angels; Satan being their chief, through deliberate choice revolted and fell from their exalted position. Their destiny is hell and has been sealed by Christ’s victory over sin and death.


Humanity
     We believe God created human beings, male and female, in the image of God and free from sin. Adam voluntarily transgressed by chosing to disobey God, this brought sin and death to the human race. All human beings are born with a sinful nature and need to be reconciled to God. We further believe human beings are a sinner by nature and choice and is therefore spiritually dead. We also believe that those, who repent of sin and trust Jesus Christ as Savior, are regenerated by the Holy Spirit.


Sin
     We believe that sin is a reality and it does exist in the world with all of humankind. Sin is any lack of conformity; active 
or passive; to the moral law of God. This may be a matter of act, of thought, or of inner dispositionor state. We further believe the Scriptures teach that Adam and Eve fell from their first estate by disobeying God’s command. We also believe God pronounced a judgment on humankind, as a result of Divine judgment humankind experience death; physical, spiritual, and eternal.


Salvation
     We believe in salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone. We further believe that this salvation is based upon the sovereign grace of God, and was purchased by Christ on the cross, and is received by human beings through faith, apart from any human merit, works, or ritual. We further believe salvation results in righteous living, good works and proper social concern.


The Church
     We believe that the Church is the spiritual body composed of believers of all ages and times who are united to God by faith in Jesus Christ, of which Christ is the head. We believe that this body expresses itself in local assemblies whose members have been immersed upon a credible confession of faith and have associated themselves for worship, for instruction, for evangelism, and for service. We believe the ordinances of the local church are believer’s baptism by immersion and the Lord’s Supper. The ordinances have no power to save a person from their sins. The elements, the bread and the wine, in the Lord’s Supper are a memorial of the broken body and shed blood of Christ.


Last Thing
     We believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe the rapture of the Church will be pre-tribulational and the second coming of Christ will be premilliennium. We also believe in the bodily resurrection of the saved and lost, the eternal existence of all human beings either in heaven or hell, in divine judgments, rewards and punishments.
