Statement of Faith

The Scriptures Inspired
We believe the Bible to be the only inspired infallible Word of God.
2 Pet 1:21, 2 Tim 3:16-17, Psalm 19:7-11
One True Godhead
We believe the Godhead consists of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Three in One and One in Three.
John 1:1-3
Deity of Jesus Christ
We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father. We acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus Christ over all things in heaven and on earth and under the earth.
1 Tim 3:16, Phil 2:9-10, Col 1:15-20
Man, His Fall and Resurrection
Man was created good and upright, for God said, "Let us make man in Our image, after Our likeness". But, man, by voluntary transgression, fell and his only hope of redemption is in Jesus Christ the Son of God.
Gen 1 :26-31, Gen 2:17, Gen 3:1-7, Rom 5:12-21
The Salvation of Man
We believe in salvation through the redeeming blood of Christ by repentance toward God, faith in Jesus Christ, and confession of His Lordship and in the keeping power of God.
Heb 9:22, Rom 10:9, 10-13, Jude 1:24
Baptism In Water
We believe in water baptism by immersion for those who have repented and believed - signifying the burying of the sin nature, which results in cutting off (heart circumcision) the slave relationship of sin.
Rom 6:1-6, Col 2:11-13
Sanctification and Holiness
We believe in sanctification and holiness of heart and the overcoming life as scriptural requirements for the Bride of Christ.
Eph 5:25-27
The Promise of the Father
We believe the Baptism and Fullness of the Holy Spirit is available to every believer. Along with this, is the openness to all of the gifts laid out in 1Cor 12:8-11, and growing in the fruit of the Spirit.

Mt 28:18-20, Acts 1:8
The Church
We believe the true church is one body of many members consisting of "born again" Christians regardless of church affiliation and that we, as individuals, become members of the Body through the power of the Spirit; and so we have fellowship one with another.
