Our Faith Statement
What we believe as a Church
- In one true and living God externally existing and revealed to us as the Father, creator of all living things, the Son, Jesus Christ, God incarnate; and the Holy Spirit.
- In the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, death for our sins, bodily resurrection, ascension under God, and imminent return in power and glory.
- The Holy Scriptures are the inspired and complete revelation of God's will concerning man's salvation through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- That men are saved solely through faith in God's grace as displayed in the death and ressurection of Jesus christ.
- In water baptism as a public declaration that a believer has died with Christ and risen with Him to walk in a life of holiness and love.
- In unity of all true believers as members of the universal body of Christ regardless of denominational affiliation.
- In the celebration of the Lord's supper as a remembrance of Jesus.
- In the ministry of the Holy Spirit:
A) By the inward witness of salvation to the believer.
B) By daily guidance and growth of Christ- like character.
C) By the baptism of the Holy Spirit, an experience distinct from and following the new birth, evidenced initially
by speaking with other tongues, and subsequently by the manisfestation of spiritual power in public
testimony and service.
D) By the manifestation of the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit as listed in 1 Cor. 12:8-10.
9. That Jesus Christ is coming againto gather all His saints unto Himself. Those who have not accepted His
redemptive work on their behalf will suffer separation from the Godhead eternally.
10. That following His return , Jesus Christ will rule and reign for one thousand years on earth. After this there
will be a new heaven and a new earth.
