Abridged Doctrinal Statement

Bible

  • We believe the Bible, including both the Old and New Testaments, is verbally inspired by the Holy Spirit, that it is inerrant in the original manuscripts and the supreme, final authority in all matters of faith and practice. The King James Version is the standard Bible text for all classroom use.

God

  • We believe there is one God eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are co-equal in power and glory, possessing the same attributes and glory.

Christ

  • We believe that Jesus Christ was virgin born, fully God manifest in the flesh and sinlessly perfect. He accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross as a propitiatory and substitutionary sacrifice. He rose bodily from the dead and is now seated at the Father's right hand interceding for us.

Holy Spirit

  • We believe that the Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity. He regenerates, indwells, and empowers the believer to live a godly life.

Man

  • We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God. Because of his sin, he fell, making regeneration by the Holy Spirit essential for the salvation of man.

Salvation

  • We believe that every child of God possesses eternal life by faith alone. He is justified, sanctified, and sealed with the Holy Spirit and is secure for all eternity.

Church

  • We believe that the Church, which is His body, espoused Bride of Christ, is a spiritual organism made up of all born again persons of this age. The establishment and continuance of local churches is clearly taught in the New Testament.

Ordinances

  • We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has left two ordinances to be observed by local churches: water baptism and observance of the Lord's Supper. We totally reject that method of interpretation which opposes either of these, or that makes them necessary for salvation.

Second Coming

  • We believe in the personal, imminent, pre-tribulational coming of the Lord Jesus for His redeemed ones, and His pre-millennial return to earth with His saints to establish His millennial kingdom.

Resurrection

  • We believe that there will be a resurrection of the saved and the lost. The saved will experience eternal bliss with the Lord, and the lost will experience judgment and everlasting punishment in a literal hell.

Satan

  • We believe that Satan is a created being who is the enemy of God and His people. His ultimate end is the lake of fire.
