what we believe


What We Believe…
-
We believe the Bible in the original writings to be the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God (II Tim 3:16-17 & II Pet. 1:20-21).
-
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in
three; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Dt 6:4, I Jn 5:7 & Lk 3:22).
-
We believe 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, in His bodily
resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father,
and in His personal return to power and glory (Mt 1:18-25, Mt 26:63-64, Jn 14:6, Jn 1:14, Col 1:15-20, & Heb 9:28).
-
We believe that for the lost and sinful man, repentance
from sin, acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord, and regeneration
by the Holy Spirit are absolutely essential for eternal life (Mk 2:17, Jn 3:5, & Rom 10:9-13).”
-
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by
whose cleansing power and indwelling the Christian is enabled
to live an effective, holy, and witnessing life (Acts 1:8 & Gal 5:22-23).
-
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the
lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they
that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (Acts 24:15 & Jn 5:28-29).
-
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ
and strive to work cooperatively with all who claim His name
in faith (I Jn 2:9-11, I Cor 12:13-31, & Heb 10:25).
