Doctrinal Statement

ABOUT THE BIBLE — We believe in the Scripture of the Old and New Testaments as verbally inspired of God and of supreme and final authority in faith and life (2 Peter 1:20,21; 2 Timothy 3:16,17).
 
ABOUT GOD — We believe in one God eternally existing in three Persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1; John 4:24, 10:30).
 
ABOUT JESUS CHRIST — We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary and is true God and true Man (Isaiah 7:14; Luke 1:26-35; 1 Timothy 3:16). We believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins as our substitute on the cross, and that all who repent and believe on Him are justified from their sins on the grounds of His shed blood (1 Peter 2:24; Romans 5:9; Hebrews 9:26). We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there for us, as High Priest and Advocate (1 Corinthians 15:3-5; Hebrews 7:25).
 
ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS — We believe that man was created in the image of God but that “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” and are lost, condemned to death (Romans 3:23, 5:12-19, 6:23).
 
ABOUT ETERNITY — We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the just raised unto everlasting life, and the unjust raised unto eternal damnation (Revelation 20:6, 10:15).
 
ABOUT SALVATION — We believe that all who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ are born again of the Holy Spirit and are given the power to become the sons of God (John 1:12, 3:3, 3:16).
 
ABOUT CHRIST’S RETURN — We believe in the personal, bodily, visible, premillenial and sudden return of the Lord Jesus Christ (Titus 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17).
