What We Believe

We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God and must be taught from a contextual model. (II Timothy 3:16).

We believe in the triune God who is revealed as Father, Son and Holy Spirit (John 14:18-27; II Corinthians 13:14).

We believe in the Virgin Birth, The Begotten Sonship, and Deity of Jesus Christ. We believe that He was God and Man (I Timothy 3:16; Matthew 1:23).

We believe in the salvation of sinners by grace, through repentance and faith (Ephesians 2:8-9; Hebrews 9:12,22; Romans 5:11).

We believe in water baptism as an outward expression of one’s inner faith that it’s God’s plan for every believer to be baptized in water by immersion    (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38; 10:47-48).

We believe the baptism of the Holy Spirit is available to all believers. (Acts 1:8, 19:1-6).

We believe that every believer is given power to live a victorious, overcoming life (I John 5:4).

We believe in the operation of the gifts of the Spirit individually and corporately (I Corinthians 12-14).

We believe in the table of the Lord, commonly called communion or the Lord’s Supper, for believers (I Corinthians 11:28-32).

We believe in eternal life for believers (John 5:24, 3:16) and eternal punishment for unbelievers (Mark 9:43-50; II Thessalonians 1:9; Revelation 20:10-15).
