We believe that the Old and New Testaments of the Bible were written by men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit. It is the only perfect authority for doctrine and life. \u00a0The Bible is preserved perfectly for us in the King James Version. I Tim 3: 16; Psm 12: 6, 7; 119:89<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”gh” title=”The Godhead” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that there is one God who is omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. He is Spirit, and is triune in nature; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.\u00a0Each part of the trinity has equally important responsibilities.\u00a0Mt 28: 19; Is 45: 5; Jn 4: 24; Jn 10: 30; Eph 2: 18<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”jc” title=”Jesus Christ” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe Jesus Christ is the manifestation of God in the flesh.\u00a0He was virgin born and conceived by the Holy Ghost.\u00a0Mt 1: 18-21; Jn 8: 58; I Tim 3: 16<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”hs” title=”Holy Spirit” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that the Holy Spirit is God.\u00a0He is a person not a force.\u00a0He is co-equal with the Father and the Son.\u00a0His ministry is for the conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment.\u00a0He is to help edify the saint, convert the sinner, and glorify the Savior.\u00a0We do not believe He is the author of the Charismatic movement.\u00a0Jn 16: 7-14; Jn 4: 24<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”c” title=”Creation” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that God created the universe with the aid of nothing but His own spoken word.\u00a0God\u2019s word will maintain a harmonious balance until He sees fit to create a new heaven and new earth.\u00a0Heb 1: 3; Gen 1: 1; Gen 1: 3<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”m” title=”Man” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that man was created in the image of God, but through succumbing to temptation brought sin into the human race.\u00a0This brought physical and spiritual death to every man and there is no man on earth that is not in need of redemption. \u00a0Gen 1: 27; Rom 5: 12<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”s” title=”Salvation” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that Jesus died, was buried, and rose from the grave the third day.\u00a0His sacrifice on the cross was substitutionary for mankind. He completed once and for all the necessary atonement required for man\u2019s sins. He lives today and is our advocate at the right hand of the Father. \u00a0I Cor 15: 3, 4; Rom 5: 8; Heb 9: 26; I Jn 2: 1; Heb 10:10<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”es” title=”Eternal Security” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that all born-again believers are kept eternally secure in Christ forever. \u00a0This is not an assurance given that allows Christian liberty to indulge in the flesh, but one given that allows them to rejoice confidently and focus attention on Christian growth and outreach.\u00a0 Jn 6:37-40; 10:27-30; Rom. 8:1, 38-39, 13:11-14; Gal 5:13; 1 John 5:11-13; Pet. 1:4-5<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”ch” title=”The Church” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that the local church is an assembly of baptized, born-again believers who congregate for the purpose of evangelizing the sinner, edifying the saint, and glorifying the Savior as stated in the Great Commission.\u00a0\u00a0Mt 28: 19, 20<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle admin_label=”sa” title=”Second Advent” open=”off”]<\/p>\n
We believe that the Lord Jesus will return to rapture His church prior to the tribulation period during which time God will purify Israel in preparation for their coming Messiah.\u00a0Then Christ will return with his saints to set up His 1,000 year reign on the earth.\u00a0Jn 14: 1-3; Phil 3: 20; I Thes 4: 13-18<\/p>\n
