The verbal inspiration of the Bible

We believe in the verbal inspiration of the Bible. It is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to man, the infallible rule of faith and conduct, and is superior to conscience and reason, but not contrary to reason.

2 Peter 1:20-21
1 Thess.2:13

The Trinity

We believe in one God existing in three separate and distinct personalities, namely the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are eternally self-existent, self- revealed and function as one entity.

The Fall of Man

We believe in the creation and fall of man and that his only hope for redemption from the fallen nature is in Jesus Christ the Son of God.

Genesis 1:26-31
Genesis 3:1-7
Romans 5:12

Divinity of Jesus Christ

We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of God as the Intercessor.

Water Baptism

We believe in water baptism by immersion and is to be observed, whenever physically possible as commanded in the Scriptures, by all that have repented and accepted Christ as Savior and Lord.

Matthew 28:19
Acts 10:47, 48

We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit as an experience subsequent to salvation, with the initial physical evidence of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. 

Acts 1:8
Acts 2:4
Acts 10:44-46
Acts 19:2,6

Isaiah 53:4,5
Matthew 8:16,17

James 5:14,15

Holy Communion

We believe in the Lord’s Supper, or Holy Communion. It is the symbol expressing our sharing of the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ, a memorial of His suffering and death, and a prophecy of His Second Coming. It is enjoined on all believers “until He comes”.

John 6:48,51,53-57
Luke 22:19,20
1 Corinthians 11:23-32

1 Thessalonians 4:13-17
