Our Beliefs

WHAT WE BELIEVE

  • We believe the Holy Bible is the inspired Word of God, without any error, all-sufficient in matters of faith, doctrine, and Christian living.

 

  • We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

 

  • We believe in the Virgin Birth of Jesus Christ, and that He is true God and man. He died on the cross for our sins. He rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father and is now our High Priest and Advocate.

 

  • We believe that man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and therefore lost. Only through the redemptive work of Christ on the cross is regeneration effected by the work of the Holy Spirit, resulting in man’s salvation and spiritual life.

 

  • We believe that eternal salvation is the free gift of God, entirely apart from man’s works, and is possessed by any and all who have faith in and receive Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.

 

  • We believe in a regenerated church membership: that is, persons old enough to understand their need for Jesus Christ and, of their own free will, accepted Him as their personal Lord and Savior.

 

  • We believe that baptism is by immersion and the Lord’s Supper is a memorial to His suffering and death on the cross. These are ordinances to be observed by the church in its present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as means for man’s salvation.

 

  • We believe in the personal, bodily, imminent, and glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

  • We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, the everlasting blessedness of the saved in heaven, and the everlasting punishment and separation from God of the unsaved in hell.

 

  • We believe in the autonomy of the local church. The church shall manage its own affairs and shall not be subject to any other religious body or organization.

 

  • We believe that God has ordained the family as the foundational institution of human society. It is composed of persons related to one another by marriage, blood, or adoption. Marriage is the uniting of one man and one woman in covenant commitment for a lifetime. It is God's unique gift to reveal the union between Christ and His church and to provide for the man and the woman in marriage the framework for intimate companionship, the channel of sexual expression according to biblical standards, and the means for procreation of the human race.
