What We Believe:

We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God and the sole authority for doctrinal instruction, salvation, and Christian living. (Psa. 12:6; 18:30; 33:4-6; Matt. 24:35; II Tim. 3:16; II Pet. 1:21)

We believe in the One ever-living, eternal God, Creator of heaven and earth, infinite in power, holy in nature, in attributes, in purpose, and possessing absolute indivisible Deity.  This one true God has revealed Himself as Father in Creation, the Son through redemption, and as the Holy Spirit through emanation and regeneration.  (Isa. 40:28; Deut 6:4; Gal 3:20; Mal 2:10; Eph. 4:6; Jn. 10:30-38, 1 Cor.8:6, 2 Cor. 5:19, Tit.3:5).

We believe the saving name of God is "Jesus" which mean "Jehovah-Savior".  The name of Jesus is the manifested name of God that is of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. (Isa.52:6; Zech.14:9; Matt. 1:21; 28:19; John 14:13-14; 17:6; Acts 4:12; 10:43;  1 Cor. 6:11; I John 2:12)

We believe that in order for "fallen man" to be restored to a right relationship with God and saved from eternal judgment he must be "born again".  This "born again" experience consists of repentance, water baptism, and baptism of the Spirit. (Lu.13:3-5; Jn. 3:3-5; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 10:47-48; 17:30; 22:16; Rom. 6:3-4; 8:9; I Cor. 6:11; 12:13; I Pet. 3:21; I Jn. 3:24)

We believe in the New Testament practice of water baptism by full immersion (for believers) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.(Matt.3:16; 28:19; John 3:23; Acts 2:38; 8:16, 35-38; 10:48; 19:3-5; Rom.6:4; Col.2:12)

We believe that the baptism of the Holy Ghost is still an experience for all believers today and is initially evidenced by speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance.     (Joel 2:28-29; Mk.16:17; John 3:8; Acts 2:4, 15-20; 10:45-46; 19:6)

We believe that Jesus Christ will return again for His Church, and that no one, but the Father, knows the day or the hour of His appearing. (Matt.24:5-14, 24, 27; Luke 21:25-28; Acts 1:11; 2 Thes. 2:1-7; Tit. 2:13; Rev. 1:7; 19:11-16; 22:20)

We believe that the power of God still operates in people today.  God still heals people physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.  He is still performing miracles today when faith is present. (Ex.15:26; Psa. 103:3; Isa.53:4-5; Matt.8:16-17; Mk.6:13; Mk.16:17-18; I Cor.12:9; Jam.5:14-15; I Pet.2:24)

We believe in the operation of all the gifts of the Spirit as given by God to the Church.  God has endowed believers with special gifts, abilities, and ministries for the benefit of the body as a whole.  These gifts of the Spirit operate in a Spirit of love to edify, comfort, and to build up the body of Christ. (Matt.10:1, 8; Mk.16:17-18, 20; John 14:12; Rom.12:6-8; I Cor.12:8-10; 14:1-40; Eph. 4:7-8, 11-16; Heb.2:4;

We believe that all Christians should pursue after holiness and strive to live a holy and consecrated life.  In order to be pleasing to God every believer should live a life of purity and separate themselves from the sins of the world. (Lev.11:45; I Pet. 1:15-16; Rom.12:1-2; 13:14; II Cor.6:17; 7:1; Eph.4:22-24; Phil.2:12-13; I Thes.5:22; I John 2:15-16)
