 |
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.
