We Believe
The Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. (John 16:13; II Timothy 3:15-17; II Peter 1:21; I Thess. 2:13)
That there is one God, eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deut. 6:4: Isa. 43:10,11; Matt. 28:19; Luke 3:22; John 14:6)
In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ. (John 1:1; Phil. 2:6-11; John 1:14; Isa. 9:6; John 20:28,29; Col. 2:9)
His virgin birth. (Matthew 1:18; Luke 1:35; Isaiah 7:14)
His sinless life. (II Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 7:26; I John 3:5; Hebrews 4:15; 7:26,26; I Peter 2:22)
His miracles. (Matthew 4:23; Luke 6:17-19; John 3:2)
His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood. (Colossians 1:14; 20; Romans 5:8,9; Ephesians 1:7)
His bodily resurrection. (I Corinthians 15:3,4; Luke 24:4-7, 36-48; Revelation 1:17,18)
His ascension to the right hand of the Father. (Acts 2:23; 5:30,31; I Peter 3:22)
That the justification by faith in the atonement of Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful man. (Romans 3:24,25; John 3:3-7; Ephesians 2:1-16: Revelation 5:9; Acts 4:12; I Corinthians 6:11; John 5:11-13)
In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit which includes: the baptism in the Holy Spirit as a distinct experience from regeneration; His indwelling whereby the Christian is enabled to live a godly life; His supernatural gifting and empowering of the church for its work, life and worship. (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4-8; 10:44-46; I Corinthians 12:14)
In the return of Jesus Christ, to consummate His Kingdom in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation. (John 5:28,29; Revelation 20:4,5; Mark 14:62; Revelation 1:5-7; II Thessalonians 1:2-10)
In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ. (John 17:11, 21-23; Romans 12:4,5; Ephesians 4:11-16)
