We believe
that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the infallible rule of
faith and conduct, and that holy men wrote it as the Holy Spirit moved
them. 2
Timothy 3:16-17
Genesis
1:1 Isaiah
43:10 Matthew
1:23 John
15:26 I
Timothy 2:5
We Believe that while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us as atonement for sin. All
who call upon His name by simple faith and acceptance of the Lord Jesus
Christ shall be saved by the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, and that
salvation is through grace and not by merits of our own. John
1:29
Romans 6:23
Ephesians 2:8&9 1
Peter 1:18-20
2 Corinthians 5:17 John
3:3 Romans
6:11&18
1 Cor. 1:30
1 Cor. 5:17 We Believe
that water baptism by immersion in the name of the Father and the Son
and the Holy Spirit, a command of our Lord; that it is an outward sign
of an inward work; as Christ was raised from
the dead by the Glory of
the Father, so we should walk in newness of life. Matthew
28:19-20 Romans
6:4 We Believe that the
baptism of the Holy Spirit is a definite experience subsequent to the
new birth. This
endowment of power may be expected after the same manner as that in
which He came upon the Jews and Gentiles alike in Apostolic days. We believe that the Holy
Spirit has definite gifts to bestow upon the believing church of Jesus
Christ. These gifts
are in order to edify and benefit the church. Romans 12:6-9 Matthew 3:11 Acts 10:44-46 I Cor.
12: We Believe
in the Second Coming of Christ; the Rapture, the Resurrection; the
Millennial Reign of the Lord on earth; that Heaven is a place prepared
for all those who believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ, whose reward is
everlasting life and joy in the presence of the Lord; and that Hell is
a place prepared for those who have rejected they mercy and redemption
of the crucified Savior, whose punishment is eternal grief, regret and
torment from which there is no escape. I Cor.
15:51-52 I
Thess. 4:16-17 2
Thess. 1:8-10 Titus 2:13-14 Rev.
20:10 Rev.
22:5 We Believe
that the church is the Body of Christ and that every believer, born of
the Spirit through salvation, is a member of that Body, who names are
written in heaven. Romans 12:5 1 Corinthians 12:13 Hebrews 10:25 Ephesians 1:22-23
Ephesians 4:15-16
