The Bible
We believe in the absolute truth of the Bible, the inspired Word of God.

Diety of Christ
We believe in the diety of Jesus Christ, his virgin birth, his life, his miracles, his death,
and his resurrection.

Salvation
We believe in the Salvation Plan that the Lord Jesus Christ instituted through
  • Repentance of our sins, I John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our
    sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
  • Baptism in His name, Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one
    of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the
    Holy Ghost"
  • In the filling of the Holy Spirit (with the evidence of speaking in other tongues) Acts 2:4 "And they
    were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave
    them utterance."  
The indwelling of the Holy Spirit endures us with power to live an exciting, overcoming life.    
Acts  1:8 "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be
witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part of the earth"

Divine Healing
We believe in the supernatural power of God to heal.  James 5:14 "Is any sick among
you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him
with oil in the name of the Lord"

Duties of Christians
  • We believe it is our duty as believers to witness and to compel all to come to the
    saving knowledge of our Lord.  Mark 16:15 "And he said unto them, Go ye into all
    the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."

  • We believe it is our duty to strive to set an example of Godly living for our families,
    our children and our community.  Ecclesiastes 12:13 "Let us hear the conclusion of
    the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole
    duty of man.

Gifts of the Spirit
We believe in the nine gifts of the Spirit operating in the church for the edification of the
church.  I Corinthians 12:9-11 "To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of
healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to
another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the
interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing
to every man severally as he will."

Our Eternal Hope
We believe that if we accept the Lord Jesus Christ as our personal Savior and live our
lives according to his word, we have a promise to live eternally with him.  
Revelation 21:2 "And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out
of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband."
