1. WE BELIEVE the Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of
God (II Timothy 3:16).
2. WE BELIEVE there is one God eternally existent in three
persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, John
10:30, John 4:24).
3. WE BELIEVE in the Deity of Christ (John 10:33), His Virgin
Birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35), His death,
burial, and resurrection
(1 Corinthians 15:3-4), His Ascension (Acts 1:11), and His
personal return to establish His Kingdom on earth (Revelation
19:11-16).
4. WE BELIEVE that all men are by nature sinful and lost;
and that for salvation, Holy Spirit regeneration is absolutely
essential (Romans 3:19).
5. WE BELIEVE that Satan is a person, and that Hell is a
place of eternal conscious punishment of all unsaved (Job
1:6-7, Matthew 25:46, Revelation 20:14-15).
6. WE BELIEVE that the Holy Spirit convicts of sin, makes
believers children of God through the new birth, assuring
them of Heaven; and by His indwelling power enables Christians
to live a Godly life (John 16:8,
I Corinthians 12:13). We are NOT a part of the modern Charismatic
movement.
7. WE BELIEVE that men are justified on the single ground
of faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ (Acts 13:38-39).
8. WE BELIEVE in the eternal security of the believer (John
10:28-29).
9. WE BELIEVE that a New Testament Church is an organized
body of baptized believers practicing Scriptural ordinances
and actively engaged in fulfilling the Great Commission
(Acts 2:41-42, & 47, Matthew 28:19-20).
10. WE BELIEVE that baptism is a Scriptural ordinance requiring
immersion (Acts 8:38-39) of only believers (Acts 2:41) to
be administered by a New Testament Church (Romans 6:3-5,
Matthew 3:15-16).
11. WE BELIEVE that the Lord's Supper is a Scriptural ordinance
of the Church to be partaken of by obedient Christians of
like Faith (I Corinthians 11:23-29)
