We believe:
- There is one God,
eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I John 5:7
- In the deity of our Lord
Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His
resurrection from the dead by the power of God, in His ascension to the right
hand of the Father and
that He will personally return in power and glory. John 1:14;
Matthew 1:18,25; Philippians 2:5-6; II Thessalonians 1:10
- Christ's blood atonement
has affected mankind's salvation and reconciliation with God. I John 1:7
- We receive salvation
from sin and death by grace through faith in Christ. Romans 10:9-10
- In the everlasting
existence of both those saved into the resurrection of eternal life, or those
lost to eternal condemnation. Revelation 20:12-15; John 6:44,65
- The Bible to be the
inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God that is granted for
our faith and conduct on earth. II Timothy 3:16
- In the Holy Spirit
baptism of believers, the present day ministry of the Holy Spirit, and His
gifts and fruit; and that by indwelling
the Christian He enables and empowers godly living. Hebrews 2:4; I Corinthians 12:1-11
- In the spiritual unity of
believers through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:21-22
- In the
Scriptural ordinances of water baptism and the receiving
of the Lord's Supper. We believe neither is essential for salvation but serves
as a living demonstration of our living faith in Christ. Romans 6:4; Matthew 28:19; I Corinthians
11:23-26
