Statement of Faith
The Bible
We believe that the Bible is the inspired and authoritative Word of God.
(2 Timothy 3:15–16; 2 Peter 1:20–21)God
We believe in one true God who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
(Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14)Jesus Christ
We believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, His sinless life, His miracles, His sacrificial death for our sins, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to heaven, and His second coming.
(Matthew 1:23; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Acts 1:9–11)Salvation
We believe that salvation is a gift of God received through faith in Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection we receive forgiveness of sins and eternal life.
(Romans 10:9–10; Titus 3:5–7)Water Baptism
We believe in water baptism by immersion as a public testimony of faith in Jesus Christ.
(Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38)Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit for the empowerment of believers for service and witness, with the sign of speaking in tongues.
(Acts 1:8; Acts 2:4; Acts 10:44–46)Gifts of the Holy Spirit
We believe that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are active in the Church today for the edification of believers.
(1 Corinthians 12:4–11)Divine Healing
We believe that healing is provided through the work of Jesus Christ and is available through faith and prayer.
(Isaiah 53:4–5; James 5:14–16)Communion
We believe that believers should regularly participate in the Lord’s Supper in remembrance of Jesus Christ.
(Luke 22:19–20; 1 Corinthians 11:23–26)The Second Coming
We believe in the second coming of Jesus Christ and the rapture of the Church.
