The Holy Scriptures
We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are to be the verbally inspired Word of God, the final authority for faith and life, inerrant in every matter in the original writings, infallible and God-Breathed.
The Person and Work of God the Father
We believe the Father is the first person of the one, Triune God, a self existent spirit, unseen by men, who shares one essence with Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, and possesses the same attributes of omniscience, omnipotence, love, truth, holiness, righteousness and goodness. He receives worship and is the One whom human beings relate through Christ, having sent Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to the earth. We believe the Father resurrects the dead and that Heaven belongs to Him. He controls the timeline for eschatological events. He draws the elect to Christ having chosen them before the foundation of the world.He predestines believers to adoptions as sons and preserves them in their relationship to God. We believe the Father is to be the focal point in their Christian lives and in their fellowship.He cares for them, Comforts them, hears and answers their prayers, honors believers that serve Jesus Christ, leads them, and gives them gifts.
The Person and Work of the Son
We believe the Lord Jesus Christ, eternally God, became man, without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful men. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption though His death on the cross as a representative, vicarious, substitutionary sacrifice and that our justification is made sure by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead. We believe the Lord Jesus Christ ascended to Heaven, and is now exalted at the right hand of God, where. as our High Priest, He fulfills the ministry of Representative, Intercessor, and Advocate.
The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is a person who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness, and judgement revealing Christ to men and enabling them to believe and, the He is the supernatural agent in regeneration, baptizing all believers into the body of Christ, indwelling and sealing them unto the day of redemption. We believe that He guides believers unto all truth, anoints and teaches them, and it is the privilege and duty of all that are saved to be filled with the Spirit.
The Creation and Man
We believe the Book of Genesis presents a historically accurate account of the origin of man, the fall of Adam and Eve, and consequently the entire human race, the institution of marriage between one man and one woman, the worldwide flood, the call of Abraham, and the origin of God’s chosen people, Israel. included in this is our belief that special creation of the existing universe, consisting of time, space, and matter, was accomplished in six, twenty-four hour literal days as detailed in Genesis chapter one. We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but that when man sinned, the human race fell and became alienated from God. Man, thus, is totally depraved and of himself, utterly unable to remedy his lost condition.
Salvation
We believe that is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal and purposeful faith in the death burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of sins.
The Eternal Security and Assurance of Believers
We believe that it is the privilege of believers to rejoice in the assurance of their salvation through the testimony of God’s word which, however, clearly forbids the use of Christian liberty as an occasion to the flesh.
The Two Natures of The Believer
We believe that the regenerated person retains their corrupt, sinful, depraved nature, but at the moment of salvation also becomes a partaker of the divine nature, capable of pleasing God through the ministries of the indwelling Holy Spirit.
Separation
We believe that all the saved should live in such a manner as not to bring reproach upon their Savior and Lord and that separation from all religious apostasy, all worldly and sinful pleasures, practices and associations is commanded by God.
Missions
We believe that it is the obligation of the saved to witness by life and by word to the truths of the Holy Scriptures and to seek to proclaim the gospel to all mankind.
Ministry And Spiritual Gifts
We believe that God is sovereign in bestowing of all His gifts that the gifts of evangelist and pastor-teacher are given to the church for the equipping of the saints today that each believer has a spiritual gift for the purpose of ministry to others, such as the gifts of ministry, helps, leadership, administration, exhortation, giving, mercy, and teaching the gifts of prophecy, speaking in tongues, and the working of sign miracles ceased as the New Testament Scriptures were completed and their authority became established. We believe that God does hear and answer the prayer of faith, in accord with His own will, for the sick and afflicted.
Dispensationalism
We believe that the Scriptures interpreted in their natural, literal sense reveal divinely determined dispensations or rules for life which define man’s responsibilities in successive administrations of God. These dispensations are divinely ordered stewardships by which God directs man according to His purpose. Three of these — the dispensation of law, the dispensation of the grace of God, and the dispensation of the kingdom– are subjects of detailed revelation in Scripture.
The Personality of Satan
We believe that Satan is a person, the author of sin and the cause of the fall that he is the open and declared enemy of God and man and that he shall be eternally punished in the lake of fire.
The Second Advent Of Jesus Christ
We believe in that “Blessed Hope” . The personal, physical imminent , pretribulation al and premillennial of the Lord Jesus Christ for the Church and His subsequent return to earth with His saints to establish His Millennial Kingdom, which will begin only after the second advent.
The Eternal State
We believe in the bodily resurrection of all human beings., the saved to eternal life and the lost to everlasting judgement. We believe that the souls of justified at death are absent from the body and present with the Lord., where in conscious bliss , they await the first resurrection, when soul and body are reunited to be glorified forever with the Lord.
