THE SCRIPTURES: We believe the
Holy Bible, composed of the sixty-six books both of the Old and New Testaments,
is God's Revelation unto man, and was written without error by men divinely
inspired by the Holy Spirit, and is therefore the sole authority in all matters
of faith and practice, and is the supreme standard by which all human conduct,
creeds, and opinions be tried.
THE
TRUE GOD: We believe in one
God, eternally existing in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
a. God the Father - We believe in God the
Father, perfect in holiness, boundless in love, infinite in wisdom, measureless
in power. We believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs
of men, that He hears and answers prayers, and that He saves from sin and death
all that come to Him through Jesus Christ, His Son.
b. God the Son - We believe in Jesus Christ,
God the Son, pre-existent with the Father, begotten by the Holy Spirit and born
of the Virgin Mary: sinless in His nature and life. Infallible in His
teaching, making atonement for the sins of the world by His substitutionary
death on the cross. We believe in His bodily resurrection, His ascension
into Heaven, His perpetual intercession for His people and His glorious second
advent according to promise. We believe in the promise of His second
coming.
c. God the Holy Spirit - We believe in the
deity and personality of the Holy Spirit. We believe that He came from
God to convince and convict the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment:
and to regenerate, sanctify, indwell, and comfort and empower those who believe
in Jesus Christ.
MAN: We believe that
man was created in the image of God; that he sinned and thereby incurred not
only the physical death, but also that spiritual death which is separation from
God. We believe that all human beings are born with a sinful nature, and
in the case of those who reach moral responsibility, become sinners in thought
and deed by choice.
SATAN: We believe in the
reality and personality of Satan.
SALVATION: We believe that
the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, as a
representative and substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who by faith receive
Him as their personal Savior, are justified on the ground of His blood shed on
Calvary and His resurrection from the dead and are born again of the Holy
Spirit, and thereby become the children of God.
THE
CHURCH: We believe that
every human being has direct relations with God, and is responsible to God
alone in all matters of all faith; that each church is independent and
autonomous, and must be free from any interference by an ecclesiastical or
political authority, that therefore the church and state must be kept separate
as having different functions, each fulfilling it's duties free from the
dictation or patronage of the other.
LAST
THINGS: We believe in the
bodily resurrection of all the dead, the saved to eternal life and blessedness
in Heaven and the unsaved to eternal conscious suffering and woe in Hell (John
5:29).
ASSURANCE: We believe in the
eternal security of the believer. (John 10:27-29)
CHRISTIAN LIVING: We believe that everyone that confess Christ as their Savior should strive to love one another… "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. John 13: 34-35 KJV" And….”If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men”. Romans 12:18 KJV
