Our Beliefs

We Believe:

+ Article 1: In the verbal inspiration of the Bible

We believe the Bible is the basis of divine authority. While it was written by fallible men, they were inspired by an infallible God who inspired them to record His truth.

+ Article 2: In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

We believe that scripture teaches of one, an only one, true and living God. We believe that God has elected to express His divine greatness to His people through three persons in the unified Godhead- the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; equal in every divine perfection and executing distinct, but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption.

+ Article 3: That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead; that He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.

We believe that Jesus Christ is the son of the Almighty God and that He elected to enter this world miraclously through the womb of a virgin woman according the divine plan of God. Christ's entrance in to the world was for the expressed purpose to die as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind so we can experience complete fellowship with God through Him. Furthermore, we believe, because of the divine power working in Jesus, that three days after his death by crucifixion, He ressurected from the grave and returned to Heaven to as our risen Savior to live forevermore. We believe, because Jesus lives, we have the power to live as well through His grace and power operating in our lives.

+ Article 5: That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.

+ Article 6: In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word and by the Holy Ghost.

We believe after we are "born again" through faith in Jesus Christ and His sacrifice, we are to be sanctified, or cleansed and set aside for a special purpose.

+ Article 7: Holiness to be Gods standard of living for His people.

We believe that our lives as Christians ought to be lived cleanly, free from sin and holy as God commands us to properly maximize our spiritual lives in Christ

  • This article expresses in summary the story of salvation through Jesus Christ. Beginning with His preexistence, it traces the major events in the earthly life of Christ—the Incarnation, the Virgin Birth, the Cross, and the Resurrection—and concludes with the glorious climax of His exaltation into heaven where He serves as our intercessor. The story of Jesus’ life, as recorded in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, is God’s plan of salvation. This plan of salvation involves God’s saving activity for us, through which He provides forgiveness from wrongdoings and eternal life.

  • We believe the practice of baptism are an outward display of what has already occurred inwardly by an individuals confession of faith. We subscribe to the practice of full immersion in water, which is a symbol of the death and burial of the individual’s old life of sin. When the individual emerges from the water, it is a symbol of their resurrection as a new creation in Christ. When conducting baptisms, we follow the model presented by Jesus in Matthew 28, baptizing “in the name of Father, Son and Holy Ghost”. We are intentional to
