THE SCRIPTURES ARE INSPIRED BY GOD

We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament are verbally inspired of God, and they are without error in the original writings, and they are the supreme and final authority for faith and life.

 

THE THREE PERSONS OF THE TRINITY

We believe in one God, Creator and Sustainer of the universe, Who is eternally existent in three persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

 

THE DEITY OF JESUS CHRIST

We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, His death to pay the penalty for everyone’s sins, His bodily resurrection, His exaltation at God’s right hand, and His visible, personal, premillennial return.

 

THE SIN OF EVERY MAN

We believe that all have sinned and are therefore guilty before God and are under His condemnation.

 

THE BELIEF IN JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO SALVATION

We believe that all who by faith receive Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit, therefore children of God and eternally saved, and that the Holy Spirit dwells within every believer to enlighten, guide, and enable the believer in life, testimony, and service. We believe that God answers the prayers of His people and meets their needs according to His purpose.

 

MISSIONS

Realizing that the cause of Christ extends beyond any one local fellowship, we commit ourselves to an ongoing ministry of extending the call of Christ to make disciples around the world (Matthew 28:19-20 ). We believe it is the aim, duty, and privilege of every believer and local church fellowship to glorify God by responding as active participants in the Great Commission to go and make disciples of all nations.

 

THE BODILY RESURRECTION OF ALL

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved in Glory and the everlasting conscious punishment of the lost in hell.

 

BELIEVERS ARE CALLED TO LIVE SEPARATE

We believe that all believers are called to a life of separation from all worldly and sinful practices and alliances.

 

GOD ORDAINED MARRIAGE

We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person a biological male or female. These two distinct but complementary sexes together reflect the image and likeness of God. Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of God’s merciful design and creative order.
