WE BELIEVE:

The Holy Bible in the original manuscripts is the divinely-inspired, infallible and complete authoritative written Word of God.

The totality of faith cannot be limited to any set of doctrinal statements prepared by men. However, we accept the need for a biblically-based foundation for our individual faith and fellowship and these are:

  • The one true and living God, who eternally exists in three persons in unity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • The divine inspiration and authority of Holy Scripture.
  • The original perfection of creation; the inherent corruptness of humanity through the fall; the necessity of repentance and regeneration by grace and through faith in Christ alone, and the eternal separation from God of the finally unrepentant.
  • The virgin birth, sinless life, atoning death, triumphant resurrection, ascension and continuing intercession of our Lord Jesus Christ. His second coming and eternal kingdom reign.
  • The justification and sanctification of believers through the finished work of Christ, their security as they remain in Him and their future resurrection in an incorruptible body.
  • The Sacraments of Baptism by immersion and of the Lord’s Supper.
  • The Baptism of the Holy Spirit for believers with supernatural signs empowering the Church for its mission in the world.
  • The gifts of the Holy Spirit for the building up of the Church and ministry to the world.
  • Christ’s leadership of the Church through Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, Teachers, Elders and Deacons for the unity, maturity and growth of the Church.
  • The privilege and responsibility of wise stewardship of the entirety that God has given, including the practice of tithes and offerings to the local church.
