Statement
of Faith
WE
BELIEVE that there is one
living and true GOD, eternally existing
in three persons: The Father, the Son, and
the Holy Sprit, equal in power and glory;
that this triune God created all, upholds
all, and governs all.
WE
BELIEVE that the SCRIPTURES of the Old and
New Testaments are the Word of God, fully
inspired without error in the original manuscripts,
and the infallible rule of faith and practice.
WE
BELIEVE in GOD, THE FATHER, an infinite,
personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom,
power and love; that He concerns Himself
mercifully in the affairs of men; that He
hears and answers prayer; and that He saves
from sin and death all who come to Him through
Jesus Christ.
WE
BELIEVE in JESUS CHRIST, God's only begotten
Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe
in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles
and teachings, His substitutionary atoning
death, bodily resurrection, ascension into
heaven, perpetual intercession for His people
and personal, visible return to earth.
WE
BELIEVE in the HOLY SPIRIT, who came forth
from the Father and Son to convict the world
of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and
to regenerate, sanctify and empower for
ministry all who believe in Christ; we believe
the Holy Spirit indwells every believer
in Jesus Christ and that He is an abiding
Helper, Teacher, and Guide. We believe in
the present ministry of the Holy Spirit
and in the exercise of all the Biblical
gifts of the Spirit.
WE
BELIEVE that all PEOPLE are sinners by nature
and choice and, therefore, are under condemnation;
that God regenerates by the Holy Spirit
those who repent of their sins and confess
Jesus Christ as Lord; that Jesus Christ
baptizes the seeking believer with the Holy
Spirit and power for service, often subsequent
to regeneration.
WE
BELIEVE in the universal CHURCH, the living
spiritual body, of which Christ is the Head
and all regenerated persons are members.
WE
BELIEVE that the Lord Jesus Christ committed
two ORDINANCES to the Church: 1) baptism,
and 2) the Lord's Supper. We believe in
baptism by immersion and communion open
to all believers.
WE
BELIEVE also in the LAYING ON OF HANDS for
the baptism of the Holy Spirit, for ordination
of pastors, elders, and deacons, and for
receiving gifts of the Spirit of healing.
WE
BELIEVE in the personal, visible RETURN
OF CHRIST to earth and the establishment
of His Kingdom, in the resurrection of the
body, the final judgment and eternal blessing
of the righteous and endless suffering of
the wicked.
WE
BELIEVE in what is termed "THE APOSTLES'
CREED" as embodying fundamental facts of
Christian faith.
