DOCTRINAL STATEMENT OF FAITH
Luke 10:27 "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your
soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your
neighbor as yourself.'"
Gal 2:10 we should continue to remember the poor
2Timothy 2:2 And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many
witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.
James 1:27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is
this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself
from being polluted by the world.
Mat 19:13-14 Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his
hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked those who brought
them. Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them,
for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
We believe that the Bible is the complete written Word of God, sixty-six books
in the Old and New
Testaments, verbally inspired in all parts, and therefore wholly without error
as originally given by
God.
We believe that the Godhead eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son and
Holy Spirit, who
are one God.
We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, manifested in the flesh
by virgin birth. He
lived a sinless life, died for our sins, arose bodily from the dead, ascended
into heaven, is
preparing a place for us as our High Priest and is coming again.
We believe that the Holy Spirit is God, a divine eternal person, having an
intellect, emotions, and a
will of His own. I believe the present ministry of the Holy Spirit is
restraining sin in the world by
convicting the world of sin, righteousness and judgment. He, also, in the
present age regenerates
believers in Christ, baptizes them into the Church, the body of Christ, indwells
them permanently,
seals them unto the day of redemption and empowers them with spiritual gifts.
We believe that God created man in His own image and likeness. In Adam, all
mankind fell into sin
with the result that all people are sinners, resulting in spiritual and physical
death and all mankind
is now sinful by nature and practice, unable to save himself from sin.
We believe that salvation is the free gift of God brought to men by His grace
and received by faith
alone in Christ, who died for our sins and rose again. Salvation is apart from
any sacraments,
good works or human merit.
We believe that every believer is promised positional, progressive and ultimate
sanctification.
We believe that all who are born of the Holy Spirit through faith in Christ can
have assurance of
salvation and are eternally secure in Christ.
We believe that all believers from Pentecost to the return of Jesus Christ are
members of the body
of Christ, the Church that Christ is building. This body is manifest on earth in
local churches where
believers should assemble for teaching, community and ministry.
We believe that every believer is to live a life of righteousness and good
works, to be separated
unto God from worldliness, maintain a godly home, settle differences between
believers in the church,
avoid carnality, exhibit the fruit and fullness of the Spirit and fulfill the
Great Commission in making disciples of all nations.
