- 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
