Statement of Faith !!!

We believe that the scriptures both, Old and New Testament, to be the inspired Word of God, without error, the entire revelation of His will for the Salvation of mankind. It is the final and divine authority for all believers in faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21)

We believe in One True God. Creator of all things, infinitely perfect and

eternally existing in three persons, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. One in essence of power. (Deuteronomy 6:4; 2 Corinthians 13:14; John 16:5-13; Revelation 4:11; Hebrews 1:3; I Corinthians 8:6)

We believe in the full deity(fully God) and humanity(fully man) of our Lord Jesus Christ; HIs Virgin Birth; His sinless life; His substitutionary death on the cross for our sins; His physical resurrection from the grave; His ascension to the right hand of God, who is majesty on high, where He forever lives to make intercession as High Priest and Advocate, for beliers; and His personal, visible, bodily return to the earth at the end of this age (Romans 8:34; Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:18-25; I Corinthians 15; Hebrews 7; Romans 3:24-25; I Peter 2:21-25; Acts 1:9-10; I John 2:1-2)

We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person and the administer of the things of God to all believers ~ convict of sin, reveal truth, regenerate, seal, indwell, guide, instruct and impower for life and service. He energizes in matters of prayer and restrains evil. (John 16:5-16;I Corinthians 12:12-14; Ephesians 1:13-14; Romans 8:9; Titus 3:35; Ephesians 5:18; I John 2:20-27)

We believe God created man and women in His image and they came into the world by direct creation of God, that this creative act was separate and distinct from any other work of God. We believe the scriptural record of the fall of mankind through disobedience to God, marred that image, creating an eternal divide between God and man. Every person is born a sinner and is therefore lost. The only through the redemptive blood of Jesus, through His death, burial and resurrection,and the regeneration of the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

We believe in the only way a person can have a true, forgiven relationship with God and eternal life is through new birth, which only comes through faith alone in Jesus Christ and Grace Alone ~ His sacrifice on the cross. The gift of everlasting bliss of the saved.

Those who reject this gift of Salvation by rejecting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will suffer conscious, endless punishment in hell.

(John 3:3; Ephesians 2:8-10; I Corinthians 15; I Peter 5:8-9; Revelation 20:2; Revelation 20:11-15)

We believe that the church is a local body of true believers who are regenerated by the Holy Spirit through the saving faith in Jesus Christ, baptized and united together in the Body of Christ of which He is Lord and Head. The church is commissioned for the God-given task of proclaiming the gospel to every person.

Every local church has the right under Christ to decide and govern its own affairs independently from any external ecclesiastical control.

We believe that God's Word commands all believers (only believers) to be baptized by immersion.

We believe the Lord's Supper should be observed as Christ said,

"in remembrance of Me", (of His broken body and shed blood for us on Calvary). (Acts 2:40-42)

We believe in the personal and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ, and that this has a vital bearing on the personal life and service of the believer.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, of all believers to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and eternal separation from God.
