What We Believe
We Believe…
The scriptures are inspired by God and filled with His design and ultimate plan for mankind.
There is only one true God - revealed to all in three persons..Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
The Lord Jesus Christ was both human and divine and is the eternal Son of God.
Though originally good, man willingly fell to sin - ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual into the world.
Man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
We practice water baptism by immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation.
We engage in Holy Communion, which is the Lord's Supper, a symbol of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation.
All Christ followers should earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ. This was the normal experience of all in the early Christian Church. With it comes the empowerment for life and service, the entrustment of the gifts and their uses in the work of the ministry.
The baptism of in the Holy Spirit is witnessed by the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit of God enables them.
Sanctification is an act of separation from that which is evil and of dedication to God. It is a progressive lifelong process as followers draw closer to God and become more Christlike.
As followers of Christ we have a mission together to seek all who are lost in sin presenting God’s truth for salvation and life change.
Scripture teaches that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves to reach others for Christ, to worship Him with other followers and to build up the body of Christ, which is the Church.
Divine healing is an integral part of the gospel. Deliverance from sickness is provided for in the atonement, and is the privilege of all Christ followers.
The resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the imminent and blessed hope of the church.
The second coming of Christ includes the rapture, which is our blessed hope, followed by the visible return of Christ with His followers to reign on earth for one thousand years.
There will be a final judgment in which the wicked dead will be raised and judged according to their works. Whosoever is not found written in the Book of Life, together with the devil and his angels, the beast and the false prophet, will be consigned to the everlasting punishment in the lake of fire, which is the second death.
According to His promise, we look for the new heavens and a new earth of righteousness.
