What We Believe

- We believe that the Godhead exists eternally in three persons; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that these three are one God. We believe that Jesus Christ in the flesh was both God and man, that He was born of a virgin and that He lived a sinless life, in which He taught and wrought mighty works and wonders and signs exactly as revealed in the four Gospels. Then He was crucified, died as a penalty for our sins, and was raised from the dead bodily on the third day. Later, He ascended to the Father's right hand where He is Head of the Church and intercedes for believers, and from whence He is coming again personally, bodily, and visibly to this earth to set up His Kingdom.  

- We believe that the Bible is the word of God, supernaturally inspired, so that it is inerrant in the original manuscripts and preserved by God in its verbal, plenary inspiration, so that it is a divinely authoritative standard for every age and life.

- We believe that since in His death, by His shed blood, the Lord Jesus Christ made a perfect atonement for sin, redeeming us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, men are saved, and justified on the simple and single ground of the shed blood. Such salvation within its forgiveness of sins, it's impartation of a new nature, and it's hope of eternal life, is entirely apart from good works, baptism, church membership, or man's effort, and is of pure grace. We belive that it is the goal of every Christian to grow in spiritual maturity through obedience to the Word of God and the indwelling Spirit.  

- We believe that Baptism and the Memorial (Lord's) Supper are the only ordinances of the Church, enjoined by Christ; that true believers only are subject for Baptism; that those Baptized should only be invited to the Memorial (Lord's) Supper; and that Baptism is immersion in the name of the Trinity.  

- We believe that all who receive Christ become joint-heirs with Christ, and at their death, their spirits depart to be with Christ in conscious blessedness, and at the rapture their bodies will be raised to the likeness of the body of His glory and dwell forever in divine presence.  

- We belive that the Holy Spirit is a person, is God, and possesses all the divine attributes. He indwells all believers, baptizes and seals all believers at the moment of their salvation, and fills them in response to confession of sin and submission to Christ's lordship.  

- We believe that the obligation rests upon the churches to preach the Gospel to every creature, witnessing "In Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost parts of the earth."
