We believe that the entire Bible
is the inspired Word of God and is true;
therefore, we believe: § In one triune God revealed in the
Scriptures as Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deut. 6:4; Matt.28:19).  § In His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His complete and atoning death,
in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of God the Father, in His personal return to this earth in power and glory, and that He is both Lord and Christ
(Is. 7:14; Matt. 1:23; Is. 9:6).
§ That all have sinned and that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through the blood of Christ
(Rom. 6:23; I John 1:7-9). § That man is justified by faith in Jesus Christ, apart from works
(Eph. 2:8-9).  §
That the redemptive work of Christ provides healing for the whole man - spirit, soul and body
(I Thes. 5:23; II Cor. 5:17).
§ In water baptism, as a command of the Lord, by immersion, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
(Matt. 28:19; Acts 2:41; Acts 8:37-38). § In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling presence, the believer is enabled to live a Godly life
which demonstrates the fruit of the Spirit
(John 14:16-17; Gal. 5:22-26). §
That a life of good deeds demonstrates God's love to the world
(Romans 2:4).  § In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved to everlasting life, and the lost to
eternal judgment (John 5:29; Acts 24:15).
§ That the Bible is the infallible
Word of God, given to men by the inspiration of God
(II Tim. 3:16; Romans 15:4; I Cor. 10:11). §
In the reality of our enemy, Satan. He is a defeated foe
(I Peter 5:8; I John 3:8). |
