Statement of Faith

• We believe there is one true God, eternally existing in the persons of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal coming again for the saints in power and glory.
• We believe the Bible to be the inspired, inerrant and the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
• We believe in personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
• We believe in sanctification through the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit, and we believe in personal holiness and purity of heart and life.
• We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: those that are saved unto the resurrection of life and those that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
• We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
• We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as distinct from the New Birth and the initial evidence of the reception of his experience is speaking in other tongues, in the gifts of the Spirit, and the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit.  We believe that all of these are available to believers.
• We believe in water baptism to be an outward evidence of the inner experience.
• We believe in the second coming of our Lord and love and wait for his appearing.
• We believe God has ordained the Church for the perpetuation of His truth and work in the world.
