OUR BELIEFS
WE BELIEVE...
​
The scriptures, both the Old and New testaments, are inspired of God and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct.
​
The one true God has revealed himself as the eternal self-existent “I AM,” the Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind. He has further revealed Himself as embodying the principles of relationship and association as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. We believe in His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His substitutionary work on the cross, His bodily resurrection from the dead and His exaltation to the right hand of God.
Man was created good and upright; for God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.” However, man by voluntary transgression fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.
Man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God. The conditions of salvation are that salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ. by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost, being justified by grace through faith, man becomes an heir of God, according to the hope of eternal life. The inward evidence of salvation is the direct witness of the Spirit. The outward evidence to all men is a life of righteousness and true holiness.
The ordinance of baptism in water immersion is commanded in the Scriptures. All who repent and believe on Christ as Savior and Lord are baptized, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Thus, they declare to the world that they have died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in newness of life.
​
In the ordinance of Holy communion in taking the Lord’s supper, consisting of the elements of bread and the fruit of the vine is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of the Lord Jesus Christ; a memorial of His sufferings and death; and is enjoined on all believers “Till He comes!”
