Statement of faith

We believe in One God

There is only one God who created all things. Deuteronomy 6:4. He was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 1 Timothy 3:16.  For in Him (Christ Jesus) dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily Colossians 2:9.

Salvation

We believe that all mankind is born with a sinful nature (Romans 3:23) and that the wages of sin are death (Romans 6:23).  Salvation was purchased by Jesus Christ for us, when He paid the price for our sin, by His death, burial and resurrection.  We follow Christ through His death, burial and resurrection through the New Birth experience.  This includes Repentance (His Death), Water Baptism by immersion in the Name of Jesus Christ (His Burial) and the infilling of the Holy Ghost (His resurrection.) Acts 2:38

The Word of God

The Bible, in its original manuscripts, is the inspired Word of God.  It was given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. (II Timothy 3:16) The Scriptures are the final authority in any matters of  faith and truth.

The Future

Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death. (See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)

Christian Living

As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today. (See Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10.)

Sin and Salvation

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (See Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9.)
