Articles of Belief
- We believe the Bible, consisting of Old and New Testaments only,
is verbally, plenarily inspired by the Holy Spirit. It is inerrant
in the original manuscripts, and is the infallible and authoritative
Word of God.
- We believe that the one triune God exists eternally in three distinct,
but not separate persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe that Adam, created in the image and after the likeness
of God, was tempted by Satan, the god of this world, and fell. Because
of Adam's sin, all men have guilt imputed to them, are totally depraved,
and need to be regenerated by the Holy Spirit for salvation.
- We believe that Jesus Christ is God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
and born of a virgin, died vicariously at Calvary, shed his blood
as man's substitutionary sacrifice, rose bodily, and ascended to heaven.
He is presently exalted at the Father's right hand.
- We believe that salvation consists of the remission of sins, the
imputation of Christ's righteousness, and the gift of eternal life.
It is received by faith alone, apart from any works. We believe that
it is the privilege, not only of some, but of all who are born again
of the Spirit through faith in Christ as revealed in the Scriptures,
to be assured of their salvation from the very day that they take
him to be their Savior.
- We believe that the Church, the body of Christ, consists only of
those who, when born again, are instantaneously baptized by the Holy
Spirit into the body of Christ, for whom he now makes intercession
in heaven and for whom he will come again.
- We believe that the Holy Spirit not as an influence, but as a Divine
Person, is the source and power of all acceptable worship and service.
He is our abiding Comforter and Helper.
- We believe that we are called with a holy calling to walk, not after
the flesh, but after the Spirit.
- We believe that Christ commanded the Church to go into all the world
and preach the gospel to every person, baptizing and discipling those
who believe.
- We believe that the blessed hope is the Lord Jesus' personal, imminent
return to rapture the Church and then introduce the millennial age,
when Israel shall be restored to their own land and the earth will
then be full of the knowledge of the Lord.
