We
believe that the Bible, consisting of Old and New Testaments only, is
verbally inspired by the Holy Spirit, is inerrant in the original
manuscripts, and is the infallible and authoritative Word of God.
We believe that the one triune God exists eternally in three persons:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe that Adam, created in the image of God, was tempted by Satan, the
god of this world, and fell. Because of Adam’s sin, all men have guilt
imputed, are totally depraved, and need to be regenerated by the Holy Spirit
for salvation.
We believe that Jesus Christ is God, was born of a virgin, died vicariously,
shed His blood as man’s substitutionary sacrifice, rose bodily, and ascended
to heaven, where He is presently exalted at the Father’s right hand.
We believe that salvation consists of the remission of sins, the imputation
of Christ’s righteousness, and the gift of eternal life received by faith
alone, apart from works.
We believe that the return of Jesus Christ is imminent, and that it will be
visible and personal.
We believe that the saved will be raised to everlasting life and blessedness
in heaven, and that the unsaved will be raised to everlasting and conscious
punishment in hell.
We believe that the church, the body of Christ, consists only of those who
are born again, who are baptized by the Holy Spirit into Christ at the time
of regeneration, for whom He now makes intercession in heaven and for whom
He will come again.
We believe that Christ commanded the church to go into the entire world and
preach the gospel to every creature, baptizing and teaching those who
believe.
