The Bible is the Inspired Word of God. The Old and New Testament are verbally inspired by God. The Bible is without error and the final authority of all Christian faith and life (II Timothy 3:15-17, I Thessalonians 2:13, II Peter 1:21).
There is one true God. God is all knowing, all powerful, and present everywhere. He is the creator of all things. While God is one, He has revealed Himself in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1&2 Matthew 28:19).
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Jesus Christ is God in human flesh. He is fully God and fully man. The Scripture declares his virgin birth, His sinless life, His death for us on the cross, His bodily resurrection from the dead, and His place at the right hand of God (Matthew 1:18-23, Hebrews 7:26, II Corinthians 5:21, Matthew 28:1-6, Philippians 2:9-11).
The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right (2 Corinthians 3:17; John 16:7-13, 14:16, 17; Acts 1:8; 1 Corinthians 2:12, 3:16; Ephesians 1:13; Galatians 5:25; Ephesians 5:1 ).
The Fall of Man. Man was created in the image of God. However, Adam and Eve disobeyed God. That first act of sin separated humankind from God and left man in a completely sinful condition. (Genesis 1:26, Genesis 3:6, Ephesians 2:11-18, Romans 3:23).
The Salvation of Man. Our salvation came at a very high cost to Jesus. He is the only means of salvation. He died on the cross to pay the penalty of our sins. He offers us a pardon for our sins and wants us to become children of God. Once we have confessed to God that we are sinful and admit to him that we believe Jesus Christ died for us and are trusting him alone for our salvation – then, and only then, are we born again. No longer lost, God “seals us” with His Holy Spirit, who will continue to teach us and guide us as we move throughout life (Romans 3:23, Isaiah 53:6, Psalm 51:5, Isaiah 59:2, Romans 5:8, 1 Corinthians 15:3, Galatians 1:4, 1 Peter 2:24, Romans 10:9-10).7.
The Ordinances of the Church.We believe that the Lord’s Supper and Water Baptism are ordinances to be observed by the church. They are however, not to be regarded as a way of salvation (I Corinthians 11:23-26, Matthew 28:19-20).
The Second Coming of Jesus. We believe in the personal and imminent coming of Jesus, the bodily resurrection of believers, and the final judgment which will seal the eternal status of both believers and unbelievers based on their relationship with Jesus Christ (II Corinthians 5:10, Revelation 20:15, II Thessalonians 1:7-9).
