The sole basis of our beliefs is the Bible, God’s infallible written Word, the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments. We believe that it was uniquely, verbally and fully inspired by the Holy Spirit and that it was written without error (inerrant) in the original manuscripts. It is the supreme and final authority in all matters on which it speaks. 1 Pet 1:21, 2 Tim 3:16

1.      There is one true God, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – each of whom possesses equally all the attributes of Deity and the characteristics of personality. 2 Cor 13:14

2.      Jesus Christ is God, the living Word, who became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and His virgin birth. Hence, He is perfect Deity and true humanity united in one person forever. Mat 1:18; John 1:1-2; Phil 2:5-8

3.      The Holy Spirit is a person, is God, is co-equal with the Father and with the Son, convicts the world of sin, and or righteousness, and of judgement; regenerates, indwells the believer, is our constant abiding guide and teacher, and is the power for victory over sin and the enabling power for service. The Holy Spirit has come into the world to reveal and glorify Christ and to apply the saving work of Christ to individuals. He convicts and draws sinners to Christ, imparts new life to them, continually indwells them from the moment of spiritual birth and seals them until the day of redemption. His fullness, power and control are appropriated in the believer's life by faith. John 15:26, 16:7, 8, 13.

4.      Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and all who repent and believe on Him have the forgiveness of sin through His blood.  His shed blood is the only atonement for our sins.  Salvation is wholly a work of God's free grace and is not the work, in whole or in part, of human works or goodness or religious ceremony. God imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation, and thereby justified them in His sight. 1 Cor 15:3; Eph 1:7; 1 Pet 2:24; Heb 9:22; John 1:12-13; Acts 3:19, 26:20; Rom 10:9; Eph 2:8-9.

5.      He rose from the dead in the same body, though glorified, in which He lived and died. And then He ascended bodily into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father, where He, the only mediator between God and humanity, continually makes intercession for His own. 1 Cor 15:4; 1 John 2:1-2; Heb 7:25

6.      Man was created in the image of God, and by one man sin entered the world.  By sin death, so death passed upon all men, for all have sinned, and apart from Christ, man is spiritually dead and lost.  Rom 3:23, 5:12; Eph 2:1

7.      Believers are called to live in the power of the indwelling Spirit so that they will not fulfill the lust of the flesh but will bear fruit to the glory of God. 1 Pet 2:9; 2 Cor 7:1; Col 3:1-9

8.      Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church.  The Church is the Body of Christ consisting of all true believers who have been regenerated through faith in the finished work of Christ, and baptized by the Holy Spirit into His body. Eph 1:22-23; 1 John 5:1; 1 Cor 12:13 

9.      At physical death the believer enters immediately into eternal, conscious fellowship with the Lord and awaits the resurrection of the body to everlasting glory and blessing. At physical death the unbeliever enters immediately into eternal, conscious separation from the Lord and awaits the resurrection of the body to everlasting judgment and condemnation. 2 Cor 5:8; John 5:28-29; Rev 20:13-15; Dan 12:1-2

10.  Christ is coming again, first for His saints, living or dead, for the consummation of the Church at the Judgement Seat of Christ and the Marriage Feast of the Lamb; and that His return is imminent; with His saints to judge the nations, and to rule and reign in righteousness for a thousand years upon the earth.     Act 1:11; Heb 9:28; 1 Thes 4:14-17; 2 Cor 5:10; Rev 19:6-9; Zech 14:5; Judg 14:15; Mat 35:31-46; Isa 11:1-12; Rev 20:6

11.  The Lord Jesus Christ commanded all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to disciple people from every nation. The fulfillment of that Great Commission requires that all worldly and personal ambitions be subordinated to a total commitment to “Him who loved us and gave Himself for us.” Mat 28:19-20; Acts 1:8; Eph 1:6-12, 4:12-16, 5:2
