Statement of Faith

We believe:

• The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is God’s revelation of Himself to man. It is a perfect treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mixture of error, for its matter. Therefore, all Scripture is totally true and trustworthy.
• There is one and only one living true God. The eternal triune God reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.
• Christ is the eternal Son of God. In His incarnation as Jesus Christ He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. Jesus perfectly revealed and did the will of God. He identified Himself completely with mankind yet without sin.
• The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God, fully divine. Through illumination He enables men to understand truth. He exalts Christ. He convicts men of sin, of righteousness, and of Judgment.
• Man is the special creation of God, made in His own image. He created them male and female. By his free choice man sinned against God and brought sin to the human race.
• Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer.
• A New Testament church of the Lord Jesus Christ is an autonomous local congregation of baptized believers. Each congregation operates under the Lordship of Christ through democratic processes. Each member is responsible and accountable to Christ as Lord.
• Missions
• Evangelism
• The Holy Bible, consisting of 66 books 39 books of the Old Testament and 27 books of the New Testament from Genesis to Revelation, is fully and uniquely inspired Word of God, the only infallible, sufficient, authoritative rule of faith and practice.
• One God eternally existent in three persons God the father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
• The deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth by incarnation, His sinless life, His vicarious death on the Cross, His bodily resurrection from death, His Ascension to Heaven, His Intercession and His Personal Return in Power and Glory.
• The Holy Spirit the author of the new birth, the comforter, sanctifier and indwelling in believers by the Spirit.
• That man was created in the image of God; but He fell into sin and thereby incurred not only physical death but also Spiritual death which is a separation from God, that all human beings in consequence of that fall are born with sinful nature.
• Salvation of the lost and sinful man through regeneration by the Holy Spirit and by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
• That man was created in the image of God; but He fell into sin and thereby incurred not only physical death but also Spiritual death which is a separation from God, that all human beings in consequence of that fall are born with sinful nature.
• Salvation of the lost and sinful man through regeneration by the Holy Spirit and by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
• The bodily resurrection of both the saved and the unsaved, they are saved unto resurrection of eternal life with God, and they are lost unto the resurrection of eternal damnation.
• The Spiritual unity of all believers who comprises the Church, the Body of Christ in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Head.
