BELIEFS
THE BIBLE
The Bible, the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, are the inspired Word of God, without error in the original writings, and are the complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the divine and final authority for all Christian faith and life.
GOD
There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three manifestations: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
JESUS CHRIST
Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate.
THE HOLY SPIRIT
The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and during this age, to convict men of sin, regenerate the believing sinner, indwell, guide, instruct, and empower the believer for godly living and service. Man - Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.
That the baptism in the Holy Spirit is given to believers following God’s cleansing of their hearts.
That all of the spiritual gifts spoken of in the New Testament (e.g. the evidence of tongues, healing, miracles, etc.) are still in effect and are available to followers of Jesus Christ today.
SALVATION
That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins. That because of what Jesus did on the cross, believers are made right with God, and are given new life by God. That through faith in the blood of Christ, through the scriptures, and by the Holy Spirit, believers are given a purified heart and life. That holiness is God’s standard of living for all His people.
BAPTISM AND COMMUNION
Water baptism by immersion, soon after accepting Christ as personal Savior, is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to a new life. The Lord's Supper is a memorial service setting forth in sacred and symbolic manner the death of the Lord Jesus Christ; all true believers and only believers should share in it.
