What We Believe

1. We believe the Bible is the inspired and infallible source of Christian faith and practice. The Bible is the supreme revelation from God.  (2 Tim 3:16, 17).
   
   
2. We believe there is one God, eternally present in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Gen. 1:26, Matt 3:16-17, John 1:1-4).
   
   
3. We believe that the only hope for man is to believe on Jesus Christ, the virgin-born Son of God, fully God and fully man. Through faith in Christ’s life, death and resurrection, mankind is redeemed (Rom. 10:9-10, 13, John 3:16, Eph. 2:1-10).
   
   
4. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells all believers, and through the Baptism of the Holy Spirit believers are empowered for Christian service.  An evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues as the Holy Spirit gives utterance.  (Luke 11:13, Acts 1:8, 2:1-4,  10:44-46, 19:6)
   
   
5. We believe that the Church is the Body of Christ, both universal and local, and is composed of individuals who through faith in Jesus Christ have been born again by the Holy Spirit. We believe that Christ Jesus is the Head and Lord of the Church.  (Matt. 28:1-20, Col. 1:18)
   
   
6. We believe that eternal life in heaven is the reward of all who believe and receive Christ as their Lord (John 3:16-17, Luke 23:43, John 14:2-3).
   
   
7. We believe that salvation is by faith and through grace alone. No amount of good works will produce justification before God. (Eph. 2:8-10).
   
   
8. We believe in the calling and gifting of various ministries in the Church, including but not limited to apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers and elders. We believe that the Church has responsibility for recognizing, equipping, and commissioning these various ministries for the edification of the Body of Christ (Eph. 4:11-13, 1 Cor.12:12-30, Rom. 12:3-8).
   
   
9. We believe that divine healing, physical, emotional and spiritual, is included in the atonement of Christ (Isa. 53.4, Matt. 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24-25).
   
   
10. We believe in two sacraments of the Church: a) The Sacrament of Water Baptism, b) The Sacrament of Holy Communion. (Acts 2:38; Matthew 26:26-30).
