STATEMENT OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE that there is ONE LIVING AND TRUE GOD
eternally existing in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in
power and glory, and that this triune God created all, upholds all, and governs all.
WE BELIEVE that the SCRIPTURES of the Old and New
Testaments are the Word of God, fully inspired , without error in the original
manuscripts, and the infallible rule of faith and practice.
WE BELIEVE in GOD, THE FATHER, an infinite, personal
spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love; that He concerns Himself mercifully
in the affairs of men; that He hears and answers prayer; and that He saves from sin and
death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ
WE BELIEVE in JESUS CHRIST, God's only begotten
Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life,
miracles and teachings, His substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension
into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people and personal, visible return to
earth.
WE BELIEVE in the HOLY SPIRIT, who came forth from
the Father and the Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to
regenerate, sanctify, and empower for ministry all who believe in Christ; We believe the
Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ and that He is an abiding Helper,
Teacher, and Guide. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit and in the
exercise of all biblical gifts of the spirit.
WE BELIEVE that all MEN are sinners by nature and
choice, and are therefore under condemnation; that GOD regenerates, by the Holy Spirit,
those who repent of their sins and confess Jesus Christ baptizes the seeking believer with
the Holy Spirit and power for service, often subsequent to regeneration.
WE BELIEVE in the universal CHURCH, the living
spiritual body, of which Christ is the Head and all regenerated persons are members.
WE BELIEVE that the Lord Jesus Christ committed two ORDINANCES to the
Church: Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe in water baptism by immersion and
communion open to all believers. (Acts 2:38, 1 Corinthians 11:23-30, Luke 3:3)
WE BELIEVE also in the LAYING ON OF HANDS for empowering of the Holy Spirit, for
receiving gifts of the spirit, for healing, and for recognition and empowering of those
whom God has ordained to lead and serve the Church. (Acts 13:3, Mark 6:5, 1 Timothy 4:14,
2 Timothy 1:6)
WE BELIEVE in the personal, visible RETURN OF CHRIST
to earth and the establishment of His Kingdom; in the resurrection of the body, the final
judgment and eternal blessing of the righteous, and endless suffering of the wicked.
