- We believe the Scriptures, both Old and New Testament are inspired by
God; the revelation of God to man; the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct. II Tim. 3:5-17
- We believe in the Eternal Godhead, who has been revealed as One God existing
in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit; coequal, coeternal; distinguishable but indivisible. Matt. 28:18
- We believe in the creation and fall of mankind. We believe in mankind's
total inability to attain to Divine Righteousness. Romans 5:12
- We believe that Jesus Christ was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of
the Virgin Mary, fully God and fully man. We believe that He died on the cross, was buried and on the third day was bodily
resurrected. We believe that He personally appeared to the disciples and bodily ascended into heaven to the right hand of
His Father. John 1:18; Isaiah 7:14; I Cor. 15:1-4; Rom. 4:25
- We believe in salvation by grace through repentance and faith in the perfect
and sufficient work of the cross of Calvary. Eph. 2:8-9; Heb. 9:12, 22; Rom. 5:11
- We believe that the purposes of the Church are as follows: being a corporate
body in which man may worship God, being a channel of God's purpose in the earth and being an organism for training and equipping
the body of Christ for evangelism, service and other works of ministry. I Cor. 12:13, Matt. 28:19-20; Mark 16:15-16; Acts
1:8; Eph. 4:11-16; I Cor. 12:28; I Cor. 14:12
- We believe in the present supernatural ministry of the Holy Spirit, including
the indwelling, inner workings and baptism of the Holy Spirit for every believer. We believe in the Spirit-filled life, a
life of separation from the world and perfecting holiness in the fear of God as an expression of Christian faith. We believe
in the multiplicity of spiritual gifts and supernatural signs that follow those who believe. II Cor. 7:1; Acts 4:30; Rom.
12:1-2; Heb. 2:3-4; Acts 2:1-41; I Cor. 12-14
- We believe in the resurrection of believers into everlasting life and
blessing in heaven, and the resurrection of unbelievers into everlasting punishment in the torments of hell. John 3:16; John
5:24; Mark 9:43-48; II Thes. 1:9; Rev. 20:10-15; John 5:28-29; I Cor. 15:51-52
- We believe in the personal, literal and bodily return of Jesus Christ
in power and glory as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. I Thess. 4:13-18; Zech. 14:5; Matt. 24:27, 30; Rev. 1:7; Rev. 19:11-14;
Rev. 20:1-6
