 What We Believe (Statement Of Faith)

• We believe the Bible to be divinely inspired, an all sufficient guide for salvation, and the infallible authoritative Word of God. II Timothy 3:16
   
• We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I John 5:6-8
   
• We believe in the Deity of the Lord, Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, sinless life, supernatural miracles, sacrificial and atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His victorious return.  I Corinthians 15:3-4, I Peter 2:18-24, John 3:16
   
• We believe in a complete Salvation as God's free gift to us; we need only to accept it.  It cannot be earned or granted by living a good life.  Salvation is obtained when a person accepts Jesus as their Savior (being born again). Romans 6:23; Ephesians 1:13, 14; 2:8, 9; John 14:6; 1:12; Titus 3:5; Galatians 3:26; Romans 5:1
  
  
• We believe God gives us eternal life through Jesus Christ; the true believer is secure in their salvation for eternity. Salvation is maintained by the grace and power of God, not by the self-effort of the Christian. John 10:29; Ephesians 1:13, 14; 2:8, 9; 2 Timothy 1:12; Hebrews 7:25; 10:10, 14; 1 Peter 1:3-5
   
• We believe that all new converts (after being born again) are to be baptized (fully immersed) in water in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in Jesus Name.  Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38; Colossians 2:12
   
• We believe in the Baptism in the Holy Spirit as a distinct experience that takes place subsequent to salvation with the initial evidence of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.  The purpose for this baptism is to receive empowerment for ministry. This baptism is not salvation, a part of salvation or required for salvation.  Acts 1:8; 2:4; 10:44-46, 19:6
   
• We believe that divine healing and deliverance is provided in the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer in answer to believing prayer. Isaiah 53:4, Matthew 8:16-17, Mark 16:18, James 5:14-15, I Peter 2:24
   
• We believe in the operation of Spiritual Gifts as the Holy Spirit wills for the edification of the Body of Christ.  I Corinthians 12:1-11
   
• We believe Jesus Christ is the founder and head of the Christian Church, the Body of Christ,  which is made up of every born-again believer that has received salvation through Jesus Christ.  Acts 2:47
   
• We believe in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, His revelation on earth, the rapture of the Church and the establishment of His eternal Kingdom. John 14:3, I Thessalonians 4:13-18, Revelation 22:20
   
• We believe in the resurrection and judgment of the saved and the lost, and a real Heaven for the saved and a real Hell for the lost. Luke 16:19-31, John 5:24, 28, 29
   
• We believe and practice the ordinances of the Church: Water Baptism & The Lord’s Supper (Communion).
