Our Belief
 

God’s Word

The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living. (See II Timothy 3:15-17.)

God

There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man. (See Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4-6; Colossians 2:9; I Timothy 3:16.)

 

Sin and Salvation

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by faith through grace based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (See Romans 3:23-25; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9.)

 

The Gospel

The saving gospel is the good news that Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. We obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:8; I Peter 4:17) by repentance (death to sin), water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ (burial), and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives the utterance (resurrection). (See I Corinthians 15:1-4; Acts 2:4, 37-39; Romans 6:3-4.)

 

Christian Living

As Christians, we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. We walk by faith and not by sight, believing that the supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, and restoration are for the church today. (See Titus 2:12; Mark 12:28-31; II Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; I Corinthians 12:8-10; II Corinthians 5:7)

​

The Future

Jesus Christ is coming again to catch His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death. (See I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15.)
