We Believe
Holy Scripture
We believe the Bible to be the inspired (God-breathed)
Word of God, and accept the same as the only infallible guide and rule
of our faith and practice. God's Word is eternally true and is useful
for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.
The Godhead
We believe in the eternal, infinite, transcendent,
immanent, sovereign, God. We believe in the trinity of the Godhead–that
there are three persons equal in every divine perfection and
attribute, executing distinct, but harmonious offices, in the great
work of redemption.
The Plan
of Redemption
We believe that Christ was the perfect
Lamb of God, foreordained from the foundation of the world, and by the
shedding of His blood, on the cross, made provision for salvation for
ALL men.
The New Birth
We believe that because of mankind's total inability to
save himself, salvation is by God's grace alone. It is received
through sincere godly repentance, and whole-hearted acceptance of
Jesus Christ as one's personal Savior; through being born again, or
spiritually reborn, one becomes a new creature in Christ Jesus.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit
We believe that the baptism of the Holy
Spirit is a definite experience, not identical with conversion. The
initial evidence of this experience is the speaking in other tongues
as the Holy Spirit enables us.
Divine Healing
We believe that divine healing–the
power of God to heal the sick and afflicted–is
done in answer to a believer's prayer, and is provided for in the
atonement of Jesus Christ's sacrifice. We believe that God is willing
to, and does, heal the sick today.
Second Coming of Christ
We believe that the Rapture, or the
second coming of Christ is personal, imminent, and occurs before the
Great Tribulation.
