Tenet of Faith

We Believe

  • The Bible is the inspired, only infallible and authoritative written Word of God.
  • There is one God eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.
  • 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.
  • In the Blessed Hope, the rapture of the Church, at Christ's coming.
  • The only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
  • Salvation produces regeneration by the filling of the Holy Spirit; this is essential for personal growth.
  • The redemptive work of Jesus Christ at the cross provides healing of the human body in answer to believing prayer.
  • The baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
  • In the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
  • In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. The one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation.
  • The Gospel shall be preached with authority to destroy the power of the devil which holds people in captivity.

Ordinances

  • The ordinance of baptism by immersion in water shall be recommended (administered) to all who have repented of their sins, and have believed on the Lord Jesus Christ to the saving of their souls, and who have clear evidence of their salvation. (Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:3-5, Colossians 2:12.)
  • The Lord's supper shall be taught and taken in purity of heart.
