What We BelieveWe believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God. The Word of God is without error, infallible, and the final authority for faith and life. The sixty-six books of the Holy Bible are the complete and divine revelation of God to mankind.
Bible References: 2 Timothy 3:16, 17; 2 Peter 1:20, 21 One GodWe believe in one God the Eternal Spirit, who created all things for His pleasure. He is infinite in power and wisdom, holy in nature, attributes and purpose, possessing total deity.
Genesis 1; Deuteronomy 6:4, 5; Revelation 4:1 God has revealed Himself as Father (in giving life – creation), as Son (in reconciliation of humanity), and as Holy Spirit (in regeneration of lives). John 14:16-18; 1 Corinthians 8:6; 2 Corinthians 5:19; 1 Timothy 3:16 We believe in Jesus Christ, who is both God and man. He is God incarnate in flesh, the image of the invisible God, God manifested in the flesh as God's only begotten Son. As a son, He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, and taught with authority. He died for the sins of all humanity, had a bodily resurrection, ascended into heaven, and will return again. John 1:1-2, 14; John 3:16; Colossians 2:8, 9; 1 Timothy 2:5; 3:16 Salvation Through Jesus ChristWe believe that all people are sinners by nature and are alienated from God until reconciled with Him through salvation. They are reconciled to God only by God's grace which is received through faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
Romans 5:12; Romans 3:23-25; Ephesians 2:8 Baptism in Jesus NameWe believe in the new birth experience of being born of the water and the Spirit. We adhere to the Apostolic message that all are to "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." Acts 2:38. We believe that after repentance, in obedience to the scripture, one should be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.
Holy Spirit InfillingWe believe in the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the initial sign of speaking in other tongues.
John 3:1-5; Acts 2:37-39, 8:16, 10:48, 19:5, 22:16, Romans 6:3 Apostolic LivingWe believe the Church is the living, spiritual body of believers, in which the Lord Jesus Christ is the Head. Godly living should characterize the life of all believers, based on the examples and teachings of the Word of God.
1 Corinthians 12:12-14, 27; Colossians 1:18, 19; Titus 2:11-12 We believe there is eternal life in a place God has prepared for those who accept His grace and receive His gift of salvation. There is also eternal destruction of those who reject His grace and refuse His gift.
