About Us

OUR TENETS OF FAITH

The Bible

WE BELIEVE the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved on by the Holy Spirit. We accept the New Covenant, as recorded in the New Testament, as our infallible guide in conduct and doctrine.

(II Timothy 3:16; I Thessalonians 2:13; I Peter 1:23-25; II Peter 1:21)

The Virgin Birth

WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ is God’s Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary.

(Genesis 3:15; Isaiah 7:14, 9:6; Matthew 1:18-23; Luke 1:30-35, 2:21)

The Godhead

WE BELIEVE there is one true Godhead comprised of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. All are co-equal and co-eternal.

(John 1:1, 14, 18, 10:30, 12:44-45, 15:26, 16:7-16, 27-28; Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19; I John 5:5-7)

Man, His Fall, and Redemption

WE BELIEVE each person is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God. Through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world…

(Romans 3:23-26, 5:12-21; I John 3:8)

The Blood of Jesus Christ

WE BELIEVE that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses all who believe on Him from sin and that it is by His blood that they are redeemed.

(Ephesians 2:13; Hebrews 9:14; I Peter 1:18-19; I John 1:7)

Communion

WE BELIEVE that communion, The Lord’s Supper, is the ordinance given by the Lord to commemorate the covenant relationship between God and man or woman…

(Mark 14:22-24; I Corinthians 10:16, 11:23-31)

The New Birth and Eternal Life

WE BELIEVE that a person’s first step toward salvation is godly sorrow that works repentance…

(John 3:3-5; II Corinthians 7:10; I John 5:11-13)

Water Baptism

WE BELIEVE that baptism in water is an ordinance and a direct commandment of our Lord…

(Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16; Acts 8:35-39, 10:47-48; Romans 6:4)

Baptism in the Holy Ghost

WE BELIEVE that all believers are entitled to and should ardently expect and receive the promise of the Father, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit…

(Luke 11:9-13; Acts 1:8)

Sanctification

WE BELIEVE that the Scriptures teach a life of sanctification and holiness without which no person shall see the Lord…

(Hebrews 12:14; I Peter 1:14-19; I Thessalonians 5:23-24; I John 2:3-6, 3:1-3)

Divine Healing

WE BELIEVE that healing for the physical body is provided for through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ…

(Psalms 103:2-3; Isaiah 53:4-5, Matthew 8:16-17, Mark 16:17-18; I Peter 2:24; James 5:14-15)

The Blessed Hope

WE BELIEVE Jesus is coming again to gather all His saints to Heaven.

(I Corinthians 15:51-52; I Thessalonians 4:16-17; II Thessalonians 2:1)

Hell and Eternal Retribution

WE BELIEVE the one who physically dies in his or her sins without Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the Lake of Fire…

(Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 20:10-15, 21:1-8)
