OUR DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

The Bible is the infallible Word of God and is the only and final authority for salvation and Christian living.

(2 Timothy 3:16, Isaiah 40:8, John 17:17, 2 Peter 1:20-21)

There is only one God, Jesus Christ, who is fully the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

(Deuteronomy 6:4, Colossians 2:9, Isaiah 43:11, Ephesians 4:4-6, 1 Timothy 3:16, Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9)

All have sinned and are in need of salvation.

(Romans 3:23, 1 John 1:8)

Salvation comes by grace through faith by the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

(Ephesians 2:8-9)

Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, and resurrected on the third day. In like manner, we obey the command of Jesus Christ (John 3:5) and the Apostle Peter (Acts 2:38) through repentance (death to sin), water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ (burial), and the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance (resurrection).

(Romans 6:4-6, Acts 2:4, Acts 8:14-18, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 19:2-6)

The promise of the Holy Spirit is for all generations, not just for those who lived in Jesus’ day.

(Acts 2:38-39)

The Bible teaches that God has called us to love and serve others and to live a life with inward and outward holiness.

(Mark 12:28-31, 2 Corinthians 7:1, Galatians 5:13-14, Hebrews 12:14)

Jesus Christ is coming again and will catch away His church to Himself. There will be a final judgement and the righteous will inherit eternal life while the unrighteous inherit eternal death.

(1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, Revelation 20:11-15)
