WHAT
WE BELIEVE
As a church, we believe that:
1.
The Bible is the inspired and inerrant Word of God,
the only infallible rule of faith and
practice.
2.
There is one God, eternal and self-existing in three
persons (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) who are to
be equally loved, honored, and adored.
3.
All mankind participated in Adam's fall from his
original sinless state and is thus lost in sin and
totally helpless.
4.
The Sovereign God, for no other reason than His
own unfathomable love and mercy, has chosen lost
sinners from every nation to be redeemed by the
quickening power of the Holy Spirit and through
the atoning death and resurrection of His son, Jesus
Christ.
5.
Those sinners whom the Spirit quickens come to believe
in Christ as Savior by the Word of God, are born
again, become sons of God and will persevere to
the end.
6.
Justification is by faith and through it, the undeserving
sinner is clothed with the righteousness of Christ.
7.
The goal of God's salvation in the life of the Christian
is holiness, good works and service for the glory
of God.
8.
At death, the Christian's soul passes immediately
into the presence of God and the unbeliever's soul
is eternally separated from God unto condemnation.
9.
Jesus Christ will return to earth, visibly and bodily,
at a time when He is not expected, to consummate
history and the eternal plan of God.
10.
The Gospel of God's salvation in Jesus Christ must
be published to all the world as a witness before
Jesus Christ returns.
