Statement of Faith

We believe that:

  • The Bible is the inspired Word of God - the product of men who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. The New Covenant (New Testament) is what we accept as our infallible guide in all matters of life and doctrine. (I Timothy 3:16; I Thessalonians 2:13; II Peter 1:21)
  • There is one God, eternally existent in three persons - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit being coequal. (I John 5:6-8; Philippians 2:6)
  • Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God, but through Adam's fall, sin came into the world. "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God". Jesus Christ came in the form of man and gave His life to restore us back to God, undoing the work of the Devil. (Romans 5:14; Romans 3:10 & 23; I John 3:8). Salvation is the gift of God to man, which we receive by faith in Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 2:8)
  • Man's first step toward salvation is godly sorrow through repentance. The New Birth is necessary for all men, and when experienced, produces eternal life. (II Corinthians 7:10, I John 5:12; John 3:3-5; Romans 10:9-10)
  • The Bible teaches that, without holiness, no man can see the Lord. We believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, beginning at the time of salvation, and continuing until the return of Christ. (Hebrews 12:14; I Thessalonians 5:23; II Peter 3:18; II Corinthians 3:18; Philippians 3:12-14; I Corinthians 1:30)
