Beliefs

Doctrinal Statements

We believe all Scripture has been given to us by the inspiration of God, that "holy men of God" were so guarded by the Holy Spirit of God, so as to be kept from error in the original writings. We believe the Holy Scriptures have been preserved through the ages by God, and that they are our only infallible rule of faith and practice. We use only the King James Bible.

2 Tim. 3:16-17; I Cor. 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21; Matt. 12:26, 36; Acts 1:16, Acts 2:4, Heb. 1:1-2

We believe there is one God who exists eternally in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; that they are the same in substance and are equal in power and glory.

Mark 12:29; John 1:1-4; Gen. 1:26; Deut. 6:4; Acts 5:3-4; 1 John 5:7;  Matt. 28:19-20; Matt. 3:16-17; 2 Cor. 13:14; 1 Peter 1:2 

We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe He is the Son of God, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary. We believe that Jesus is the true God and true Man in one person.

John 1:1-4; 20:28; Matt. 1:20-25; Col. 1:19; 2:9; Heb. 4:15-16; Isa 7:14; 1 Tim. 3:16; John 4:6; 11:35




We believe the True Church is the Body of Christ. We believe that anyone who receives Jesus Christ as his/her personal Savior, becomes a member of the Body of Christ, the True Church.

Matt. 16:16-18; 1 Cor. 12:12-27; Acts 2:32-47; Eph. 4:1-6; Rom. 12:5




We believe our redemption has been purchased solely by the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ; that He was made a curse for us; that He died as our substitutes; we believe that we can add nothing or subtract anything from His work on Calvary. We believe that true saving faith consists of repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; that He alone begins salvation in us, continues it, and will complete it by His own mighty power which worketh in us.

Matt. 26:28; 2 Cor. 5:21; John 1:12; 3:16, 36; 6:37; 10:28-29; 5:24; Rom. 3:21-31; 5:6-9; 10:9-10; Gal. 3:13; Eph. 2:8-9; Acts 4:12; 1 Pet. 1:18-19; Heb. 9:26

 We believe in the bodily resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We believe He ascended to the Father and is presently working as the only Mediator between ourselves and God; that He alone is our Advocate and High Priest.

Matt. 28:6; 1 Cor. 15:3-8; Luke 24:39; Heb. 4:14-16; 7:25; 9:24; Rom. 4:25; Acts 1:9; 2:32-33; I Tim. 2:5

   

  

 

 We believe man was created in the image of God, and that through the fall of Adam, sin has been transmitted to each member of the human race. We believe the natural man is totally depraved, having no righteousness of his own, and that natural man is incapable of obeying the laws of God; we believe that natural man is under condemnation and deserves the second death, which is eternal separation from God.

Gen. 1:26; 2:17; 6:5; Eph. 2:1-3; Jer. 17:9; 1 Cor. 2:14; Phil. 3:4-9; Rom. 1:18; 3:20;  4:5; 5:12-19; Psalm 14:1-3; 51:5; 58:3; Isaiah 64:6; Titus 3:5; James 2:10

 
 

  

 

  

 

  

  

 

 We believe in the personal and imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ for the true Church; we believe in the personal, visible and glorious coming of the Lord to set up the millennial kingdom upon earth.

We believe there are two divine ordinances which the Lord would have us practice: Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe Baptism is essential to obedience, but is not essential for salvation.

Matt. 28:19; Acts 8:36-38; 9:18; 16:33; Rom. 6:3-10; 1 Cor. 11:23-27; Matt. 26:26-30
