What We Believe
The Scriptures
We believe that the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired, and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instruction: that it has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mixture of error, for its matter.
We further believe that the Word of God is the SUPREME and FINAL authority in faith and life.
God the Father
There is one and only one living and true God, an intelligent, spiritual, and tri-personal Being, the Creator, Preserver, and Ruler of the universe, infinite in holiness and all other perfections, to Whom we owe the highest love, reverence and obedience.
God the Son
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was begotten of the Holy Spirt without a human father, born of a virgin and is truly God and truly man, that His deity is absolute, wholly unique and singular.
God the Holy Spirit
We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, who is the divine interpreter of the infallible Word.
The Fall of Man
We believe, according to the teaching of Scripture, that man was created a moral being in the image of God and after His likeness, but voluntary transgression fell from his original sinless state. In consequence, the whole human race was involved in guilt, making all mankind now sinners, depraved in nature, spiritually dead, and hopeless apart from divine grace.
The Resurrection of Christ
We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of Christ; that His body which was raised from the dead according to the Scriptures was a literal body consisting of flesh and bone.
The Way of Salvation
We believe that salvation, according to the Scriptures, is wholly by grace through faith plus nothing.
The Security of the Believer
We believe that all born-again persons are eternally secure in Christ since the Scriptures teaches that our justification before God rests alone upon the finished work of Christ.
The Church
We believe that the Church, the Body of Christ, is composed of all those who have true faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; that the visible church or assembly is a congregation of baptized believers, associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel, and observing the ordinances of Christ, the true Head of the Church.
The Obligation to Holiness
We believe that all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ are called into a life of separation from the world.
The Evangelization of the World
We believe in the evangelization of the world, placing emphasis upon the task of reaching the individual with the gospel and its implications; and that no humanitarian and philanthropic schemes may be substituted for the preaching of the Cross.
Bible Interpretation
We believe in accepting the literal teaching of the Word (as found in the original 1611 version of the King James Bible). Therefore, every declaration is to be taken in its primary, ordinary, literal, and most obvious meaning unless the facts of the context and the well-defined laws of language clearly indicate the terms either to be symbolic or figurative, and not literal.
Creation
We believe in the Genesis account of creation which teaches that all things found their origin in God Who created by His own fiat instantaneously every living thing after its kind.
The Return of Christ
We believe, according to Scripture, in the sure return of the Lord Jesus Christ, that His first coming will be for His Bride, the Church and will be PRIOR to the seven year Tribulation Period. His second coming in glory will be PREMILLENNIAL and at such time He will set up the Kingdom and rule this earth 1,000 years.
Satan
We believe in the reality of the person of Satan, “that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.
