-
WE BELIEVE that the entire Bible is
the Word of God, the
infallible
revelation of God to man, divinely
inspired by the Holy Spirit, and our
source of
foundational truth.
-
WE BELIEVE that there is
one true, eternal God, the Almighty Father, the
Creator of the heavens and the earth. WE BELIEVE He is revealed in three
persons as the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
WE BELIEVE that Jesus is the
Messiah, the
Son of God, who was
born of a virgin and
lived a sinless life. He
performed miracles, died to
redeem us from sins
, was
resurrected
on the third day, and
ascended to heaven.
-
WE BELIEVE that
all have sinned, that
all need salvation, that
salvation is available only through the blood of Jesus Christ
, and that
all must confess and repent of their sins to receive forgiveness and eternal life. This process is known as becoming
“born again” in Christ.
-
WE BELIEVE that once you have been forgiven of your sins (born again in
Christ), you should be
baptized in water.
-
WE BELIEVE in
justification, meaning that through the resurrection of
Christ and becoming born again, we have been acquitted of our sins and
declared righteous in God’s sight.
-
WE BELIEVE in
sanctification, which means to be
separated from sin and
dedicated to God. Biblically, sanctification is a symbol of being
cleansed from pollution and allowing the Holy Spirit to renew us. Once
you become born again and baptized in water, a believer should strive to
become more Christ-like in their behavior, exhibiting the
fruits of the Spirit
and
living a holy and moral life through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit.
When we miss the mark, we should repent right away and ask
the Lord to deliver us from every bondage and stronghold.
-
WE BELIEVE that the
baptism of the Holy Spirit is promised to all
believers. The promise of a Spirit-filled life includes a
prayer language (speaking in other tongues), the power to be a
witness, an
anointing
to serve God, and operation in the
gifts of the Holy Spirit .
-
WE BELIEVE that
divine healing and
deliverance are provided through the
blood of Jesus Christ, and that
the prayer of faith will heal the sick.
-
WE BELIEVE that Christians are called to be
salt and light to the world,
and to
reach the world with the Gospel message of Jesus Christ.
-
WE BELIEVE in the premillennial
second coming of Jesus Christ, first to
resurrect the dead saints and to
catch away the living in the air.
-
WE BELIEVE in eternal
life for the righteous and
eternal punishment for the wicked.
-
WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ will
return to
rule and reign on earth as King of kings and Lord of lords
for
a thousand years. Then the dead will
be judged at the
great white throne judgment, and all whose
names are not written in the Book of Life will be cast into the lake of fire.
The righteous will live eternally on a new earth .
