What We Believe

In essentials - UNITY; In Non-essentials - LIBERTY; In All Things - CHARITY

  • THE HOLY SCRIPTURES - We believe the Bible is God-inspired (2 Timothy 3:16,17) 
  • THE ETERNAL GODHEAD - We believe God is Triune: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 13:14) 
  • THE FALL OF MAN - We believe that man was created in the image of God, but that by voluntary disobedience he fell from perfection (Romans 5:12) 
  • THE PLAN OF SALVATION - We believe that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, signing the pardon of all who believe on Him (John 3:16; Romans 5:8) 
  • SALVATION THROUGH GRACE - We believe that we have no righteousness and must come to God pleading the righteousness of Christ (Ephesians 2:8) 
  • REPENTANCE AND ACCEPTANCE - We believe that upon sincere repentance, and a whole-hearted acceptance of Christ, we are justified before God (I John 1:9) 
  • THE NEW BIRTH - We believe that the change which takes place in the heart and life at conversion is a very real one (2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 2:20) 
  • DAILY CHRISTIAN LIVING - We believe that it is the will of God that we be sanctified daily, growing constantly in the faith (Hebrews 6:1) 
  • BAPTISM AND THE LORD'S SUPPER - We believe that baptism by immersion is an outward sign of an inward work (Matt. 28:19). We believe in the commemoration of the Lord's Supper by the symbolic use of the bread and juice of the vine (I Corinthians 11:24, 25) 
  • BAPTISM WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT - We believe that the Baptism with the Holy Spirit is to endue the believer with power; and that His incoming is after the same manner as in Bible days (Acts 2:4) 
  • THE SPIRIT-FILLED LIFE - We believe that it is the will of God that we walk in the Spirit daily (Ephesians 4:30-32) 
  • THE GIFTS AND FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT - We believe that the Holy Spirit has gifts to bestow upon the Christian; and that we should show spiritual fruit as evidence of a Spirit-filled life (I Corinthians 12:1-11; Galatians 5:22) 
  • MODERATION - We believe that the experience and daily walk of the believer should never lead him into extremes of fanaticism (Philippians 4:5) 
  • DIVINE HEALING - We believe that divine healing is the power of Christ to heal the physically sick in answer to the prayer of faith (James 5:14-16) 
  • THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST - We believe that the second coming of Christ is personal and imminent (I Thessalonians 4:16, 17) 
  • CHURCH RELATIONSHIP - We believe it is our sacred duty to identify ourselves with the visible Body of Christ (Acts 16:5; Hebrews 10:25) 
  • CIVIL GOVERNMENT - We believe that rulers should be upheld at all times except in things opposed to the will of God (Romans 13:1-5) 
  • THE FINAL JUDGEMENT - We believe that all shall stand some day before the judgement seat of God, and there receive eternal life or death (2 Corinthians 5:10) 
  • HEAVEN - We believe that Heaven is the glorious eternal home of born-again believers (John 14:1-3; Revelation 7:15-17) 
  • HELL - We believe that hell is the place of eternal torment for all who reject Christ as the Savior (Revelation 20:10,15) 
  • EVANGELISM - We believe that soul winning is the most important responsibility of the Church (James 5:20) 
  • TITHES AND OFFERINGS - We believe that the method ordained of God for the support and spread of His cause is by giving of tithes and free-will offerings (Malachi 3:10; 2 Corinthians 9:7)
