What We Believe

 

     We believe the Scriptures in its entirety commonly known as the Holy Bible, to be the only inspired infallible, authoritative, Word of God.

 

     We believe in one God who is eternal in His existence, Triune in His manifestation, being both Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that He is Sovereign and Absolute in His authority.

 

     We believe man was created in the image of God, but sinned, causing separation from God, and can be redeemed only through Jesus Christ.

 

    We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning death, resurrection, ascension into Heaven, and in His personal future return to earth with great power and glory to rule over the nations.

 

     We believe man’s first step toward salvation is godly sorrow that works repentance.  The new birth is necessary to all men and when fulfilled produces eternal life.

 

     We believe in water baptism by immersion and is a direct commandment of our Lord and is for the believers only.  The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection.

 

     We believe all believers are entitled to the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the endowment of power for life and service, and the bestowment of gifts for public testimony and service.

 

     We believe that partaking in the sacraments of  Holy Communion is a memorial of Christ’s suffering and death, a prophecy of His Second Coming and an expression of the bond of fellowship amongst all believers.

 

     We believe healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith and by the laying on of hands.

 

     We believe there will be a final judgment in which the unrighteous will be judged and whoever is not found written in the Book of Life will be consigned to everlasting punishment, which the Scriptures refer to as the second death.

 

     We believe in the resurrection of those who die in Christ and the translation together with those who are alive at His Second Coming.  This is the “blessed hope” of the Church.
