The Bible

The Bible is God’s Word to all people. It was written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. Because it was inspired by God, the Bible is truth without any mixture of error and is completely relevant to our daily lives.

Deuteronomy 4:1-2 |  Psalms 119:11, 89, 105 |  Isaiah 40:8 |  Matthew 22:29 |  John 5:39; 16:13-15; 17:17 |  Romans 15:4 |  2 Timothy 3:15-17 |  Hebrews 1:1-2; 4:12 |  1 Peter 1:25 |  2 Peter 3:16

God

There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three manifestations: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 

Deuteronomy 6:4 | Isaiah 61:1 | Matthew 28:19 | Mark 1:9-11 | Luke 1:35 | John 5:21-23; 14:10, 16 | Romans 8:9-11 | 1 Corinthians 8:6 | 2 Corinthians 13:14 | Hebrews 1:8-10 | James 2:19 | 1 Timothy 3:16 | Ephesians 4:5

The Son

Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He is the only plan for bringing people who are far from God back into a right relationship with God. He lived a perfect life, so that He could be a substitution for us in satisfying God’s demands for perfection. He died on the cross, the complete and final sacrifice for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where, at the right hand of the Majesty on High, He is now our High Priest and Advocate.

Isaiah 7:14; 53 | Matthew 1:18-23; 3:17; 8:29; 14:33; 16:16;28:5-6 | Luke 22:70; 24:46-47 | John 1:1, 14; 10:30; 11:25-27; 17:1-5 | Acts 1:9; 2:22-24; 7:55-56 | Romans 1:3-4; 3:23-26; 8:1-3; 10:4 | 1 Corinthians 8:6 | 2 Corinthians 5:19-21 | Galatians 4:4-5 | Philippians 2:5-11 | Colossians 1:15; 2:9 | 1 Timothy 2:5-6; 3:16

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit’s presence assures us of our relationship with Christ. He guides believers into all truth and exalts Christ. He convicts people of their sin, regenerates the believing sinner, indwells, guides, instructs, and empowers the believer for godly living and service. He comforts us, gives us spiritual gifts, and makes us more like Christ.

Genesis 1:2; Psalm 51:11; 139:7 | Isaiah 61:1-3 | Joel 2:28-32 | Mark 1:10 | Luke 1:35; 4:1; 11:13; 12:12 | John 15:26; 16:7-14 | Acts 1:8; 2:1-4; 13:2 | Acts 2:37-39 | Romans 8:9-11, 14-16, 26-27; | 1 Corinthians 3:16 | Ephesians 1:13-14 | 2 Peter 1:21 | Revelation 22:17

Salvation

Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin and is therefore lost, and only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained. Repentance, a turn away from sin and a turn towards God, water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus who died for our sins, and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and is evidenced by a changed life. 

Matthew 28:19 | John 3:5 | John 3:16 | Acts 1:8 | Acts 2:37-39 | Acts 8:11-40 | Acts 10:42-48 | Acts 19:1-6

Future Events

We believe in the personal, pre-millennial, and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ is our hope. There will be a bodily resurrection of all the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord, and of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment.
