1.  We believe the Bible to be the divinely inspired, only infallible, authoritative Word of God.

 

2.  We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons:  God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

 

3.  We believe in the reality of  sin and the sinful nature in all mankind, which apart from salvation, results in the righteous judgment of God and eternal separation from God in hell, the lake of fire.

 

4.  We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God, in His virgin birth, in His sinless human life as Son of Man, and in His miracles.

 

5.  We believe in Christ’s vicarious and atoning death on the cross.  In His shed blood there is forgiveness and cleansing from sin, deliverance from demonic bondage, and freedom from the curse of the law; in His scourging there is healing from sickness; in His death and burial there is release from the old selfish nature.

 

6.  We believe in Christ’s bodily resurrection, and His ascension to the right hand of the Father.  In His resurrection and ascension there is new spiritual life for all believers.

 

7.  We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful mankind, regeneration by the Holy Spirit, being born again through repentance from sin and faith in Jesus Christ, is absolutely essential.  This joins the believer to Christ, giving him a new spirit within, a new beginning, and a destiny in heaven in the presence of God.

 

8.  We believe in water baptism for all believers, following the example of Jesus Christ and the New Testament church.

 

9.  We believe in the outpouring from God of the Holy Spirit upon all flesh, beginning with the day of Pentecost and continuing until now.  This comes in the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, accompanied by speaking in unknown tongues, prophecy and other supernatural manifestations of the Holy Spirit.

 

10.  We believe in the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit in every believer and the requirement to walk by the Spirit in holiness of  character and behavior.

 

11.  We believe that in the blood covenant of Christ’s atonement, God has provided blessing for all His children in all areas of life – fellowship with God, holiness, health, finances, family, work, and ministry.

 

12.  We believe in the living Body of Christ, the Church universal and local; and in the spiritual unity of all believers under the Head of the Body, Jesus Christ.

 

13.  We believe in the Kingdom of God, both present and future; that believers must recognize Jesus Christ as King of Kings and Lord of Lords in their lives now, and eventually every authority must bow to Him.  We believe this Kingdom needs to be prayed down, preached out, received and acted upon in order to be experienced.

 

14.  We believe in the completion of the Great Commission by the Church of Jesus Christ, the preaching of the Gospel of the Kingdom as a witness to all peoples.

 

15.  We believe in the personal, bodily and imminent return of Jesus Christ to the earth in power and glory.

 

16.  We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto everlasting life in heaven with God; and they that are lost unto everlasting separation from God in hell.
