One God
We believe in one true God, eternal in His existence, sovereign and absolute in His authority. (John 14:17, Eph. 4:5)
Bible
We believe in the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments, to be given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it is infallible, authoritative, without error, as God’s revealed word to man. (Acts 5:9, 11:16, 11:28. Matt 3:16, Luke 4:18, John 14:17, Phil 1:19)
Jesus
We believe in the complete deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His supernatural conception and in the virgin birth. We believe He lived a sinless life and died a vicarious and atoning death. We believe in His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His future return to this Earth in power and glory to rule and reign forever. (Matthew, Mark, Luke, & John)
Gathering
We believe in consistently gathering together with like-minded Christians, in corporate worship, small groups, and servant-oriented ministries throughout the community. (John 4:24, Matt 4:10, Luke 4:8, 14:10)
Salvation
We believe in salvation of the lost sinful man by the regeneration of the Holy Spirit. We believe that each man and woman shall repent and that salvation is by sovereign grace through faith in Jesus Christ as savior. (Heb 5:9)
Repentance
We believe the salvation experience begins with heartfelt repentance, which is a sorrow for the past sins and a changed mind that reflects the desire to live for Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. (Acts 2:38, Luke 19:9, Heb 5:9)
Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus soon after accepting Jesus Christ as personal savior and that it is a testimony of death to sin and resurrection to a new life. (Matt 3:16)
Holy Spirit
We believe in the spirit baptism of the Holy Spirit, as evidenced in the Book of Acts, is available and given to every believer who asks, enabling and empowering that Christian to live a holy, sanctified life of power. (Acts 2:38, Matt 3:16)
Communion
We believe in communion as a regular observance for all believers to remember the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. (1 Cor 10:16, 2 Cor 6:14, 13:14)
Resurrection
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the saved and the lost, the saved to everlasting life and the lost to eternal separation from Jesus Christ. (Matt 22:31-32, Luke 5:28-30)
Healing
We believe in divine healing provided through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ as an inclusive portion of His passion. (Matt 4:23, Luke 9:6)
Gifts
We believe in the present day ascension gift ministries of the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher, and the manifestations of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit as supernatural phenomena. (1 Cor 12:7-11, & 4:2-5, Rom 8:19)
