What We Believe
- The Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God (2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21).
- There is only one God, eternally existent in three persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Gen. 1:26; 2 Cor. 13:14).
- In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, and in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory (John 1:1-3; Phil. 2:6-11).
- That man, originally created in the image of God, fell from that high and holy estate, and lost all spiritual life, and that he is a sinner against God's Holy Laws and Character (Gen. 1:27; Rom. 3:10, 23; 4:12-19).
- That for salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. Salvation is by God's grace alone, and is received through whole-hearted acceptance of Jesus Christ as personal Savior. Through being born again, man becomes a new creature in Christ Jesus (John 3:3; 2 Cor. 5:17; Titus 3:5.
- In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is able to live a Godly life and be effective in Christian witness. That each believer is gifted and enabled to minister within the body of Christ. That the fruit of the Spirit (Christ'scharacter) is developed in those controlled by the Spirit of God (Gal. 5:22, 23; 1 Peter 4:10,11; Eph. 4:1-16).
- That baptism and communion hold a high place in the life of a Christian, and the practice of such is essential to their Christian walk (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 6:4; 1 Cor. 11:23-27; 2 Cor. 13:5).
- In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: the saved to a resurrection of life and the lost to damnation (Matt. 13:41, 51; John 5:28, 29; Rev. 20:11-15).
