Statement of Faith
The Bible, both the Old and New Testaments, was verbally inspired by God, inerrant in the original writings, and is supreme and final in authority, faith, and life.
2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:20-21
There is one God eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, co-equal in power and glory, identical in their essential nature, attributes, and perfection.
Matthew 28:19, Genesis 1:1, Hebrews 1:1-3, Acts 5:3-4, John 10:30
The Lord Jesus Christ was begotten in the flesh by the Holy Spirit through the Virgin Mary, being thus true God and true man and the only Mediator between God and man.
Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:18-25, John 1:14, 1 Timothy 2:5, Philippians 2:5-8
The Holy Spirit is that person of the Triune Godhead who convicts men of sin and indwells believers for a life of victory and seals them unto the “Day of Redemption”.
John 14:16-17, John 16:7-12, Ephesians 1:3-14
Man was created by God in His image, not a product of evolution. Man fell into sin and thereby incurred to himself and his posterity not only physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from God. All human beings are born with a sinful nature and are totally depraved, having no spark of divine life.
Genesis 1:26-27, Romans 3:10, 23, Romans 5:12, Ephesians 2:1-3
The Lord Jesus Christ voluntarily died as a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins, and all who believe in Him are justified by His death, burial, and resurrection.
Romans 5:8, Romans 3:23-26
Salvation is not of works, but by grace alone. All who receive the Lord Jesus Christ by faith as their personal Savior are born again of the Holy Spirit and baptized by Him into that spiritual body (the Church) of which Christ is the Head.
Ephesians 2:8-10, John 1:11-13, 1 Corinthians 12:13, Colossians 1:18
Our Lord is personally coming again, first to receive His own to Himself and later to set up His earthly kingdom according to His promises. We believe that this Blessed Hope has a vital bearing on our personal life and service.
John 14:1-3, 1 Corinthians 15:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Titus 2:13-14, 1 John 3:1-3
