We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to man
and the infallible rule of faith and conduct.
We believe that there is one God, comprised of three
separate and distinct personalities: God the Father, God the Son and God the
Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ and in
His virgin birth. His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of
the Father and His personal future return to this earth in power and
glory.
We believe that man's only hope of redemption is through
the shed blood of Jesus Christ. We believe that man is saved by repentance
toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
We follow the New Testament example of baptism by
immersion of the believer in water.
We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit and fire
according to Acts 1:4,8 and Acts 2:4. With this comes the endowment of power for
life and service, the bestowment of the gifts and their uses in the work of the
ministry.
We believe the baptism of believers in the Holy Spirit
is witnessed by the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues as the
Spirit of God gives them utterance. (Acts
2:4)
We believe the church is the body of Christ, the
habitation of God through the Spirit, with the divine appointments for the
fulfillment of her great commission.
We believe a divinely called and scripturally ordained
ministry has been provided by our Lord for the threefold purpose of leading the
Church in Evangelization of the world, Worship of God and Building a body of
believers being perfected in the image of His Son. (Mark
16:15-20, John 4:23-24, Eph. 4:11-16)
We believe Divine healing is an integral part of the
gospel. Deliverance from sickness is provided for in the atonement and is the
privilege of all believers. (Isa. 53:4-5, Matt. 8:17, James
5:14-16)
We believe the blessed hope is the resurrection of those
who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who
are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the imminent and blessed
hope of the Church. (Rom. 8:23, Titus 2:13. I Cor.
15:51-52)
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to man
and the infallible rule of faith and conduct.
