We Believe
WE BELIEVE...the Bible is the inspired,
only infallible and authoritative written
Word of God.
WE BELIEVE...there is one God eternally
existent in three persons: God the Father,
God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.
WE BELIEVE...in the deity of our Lord
Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in
His sinless life, in His miracles, in
His vicarious and atoning death, in
His bodily resurrection, in His ascension
to the right hand of the Father, in
His personal future return to earth
in power and glory to rule a thousand
years.
WE BELIEVE...in the Blessed Hope, the
rapture of the Church, at Christ's coming.
WE BELIEVE...the only means of being
cleansed from sin is through repentance
and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
WE BELIEVE...salvation produces regeneration
by the filling of the Holy Spirit; this
is essential for personal growth.
WE BELIEVE...the redemptive work of
Jesus Christ at the cross provides healing
of the human body in answer to believing
prayer.
WE BELIEVE...the baptism in the Holy
Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given
to believers who ask for it.
WE BELIEVE...in the sanctifying power
of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling
the Christian is enabled to live a holy
life.
WE BELIEVE...in the resurrection of
both the saved and the lost. The one
to everlasting life and the other to
everlasting damnation.
WE BELIEVE...the Gospel shall be preached
with authority to destroy the power
of the devil which holds people in captivity.
