Our Beliefs

We believe in one God who eternally exists in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, as revealed throughout Scripture and affirmed by the Christian Church.

God the Father

God the Father is the Creator and sustainer of all things. He created humanity for fellowship and, through Christ, calls people back into relationship with Him after the fall.

The Son — Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is eternally God, present with the Father and the Holy Spirit from the beginning. For humanity’s redemption, He became incarnate through the Holy Spirit, bringing salvation to the world.

The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is God, the giver of life, who empowers believers for service and witness. He transforms lives, renews hearts, and equips the Church through His presence, gifts, and power.

We affirm that the Bible containing the Old and New Testaments is alone the only infallible inspired Word of God, and that its authority is ultimate and final and eternal. It cannot be added to, subtracted from, or superseded in any regard. The Bible is the source of all doctrine, instruction, correction and reproof. It contains all that is needed for guidance in godliness and practical Christian conduct.

Christ's vicarious death on the cross paid the penalty for the sins of the whole world, but its benefits are only applicable to those who receive Jesus as their personal Savior. Healing of the body, soul and spirit, is provided for in the atonement, as well as, all of God's provision for His saints.

The Word of God teaches that salvation is a free gift from God, made possible through the death of His Son and we have been saved by grace through faith. Salvation involves personal repentance, belief in the Lord Jesus Christ (justification), and accepting Him as Lord and Savior (regeneration). New life in Christ brings the privilege of adoption into God’s family and inheritance in His Kingdom.

Salvation is a response of free will to God’s love, and through His omniscience, God foreknew those who would choose Him. It is secure in the eternal and unchanging faithfulness of God, who never fails. True salvation produces a life of loving obedience and faithful service to Jesus Christ.

We believe that the Scriptures portray the life of the saint in this world to be one of balance between what is imputed to us as Christians and what is imparted to us according to our faith and maturity. Hence God's provision for His children is total and the promises are final and are forever.

The shortcomings of the individual and of the Church are because of the still progressing sanctification of the saints.

The Christian life is filled with trials, tests, and warfare against a spiritual enemy. For those abiding in Christ until their death or His return, the promises of eternal blessing in the presence of God are assured. To remain faithful through all circumstances of life, it requires dependence upon the Holy Spirit and a willingness to die to personal desires and passions.

a. The Church is a body & bride of Christ. One day Jesus will come to take His bride with Him.

b. The goal of the Church is to preach the Gospel & make disciples of all nations.

c. The Church is governed by the five-fold ministry as outlined in Ephesians 4:11-12

d. Church discipline, as taught in the Bible, is very important for the life of the Church. Every individual should follow it, and the church leaders should also guide and practice it together as a group.

People were created to exist forever. They will exist either eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is Hell. To be eternally in union with Him is Heaven. Heaven and Hell are places of eternal existence.

The Word of God enjoins on the Church two perpetual ordinances of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Water baptism: The water baptism is the outward sign of what God has already done in the individual's life, and is a testimony to all, that the person belongs now to Jesus. Water baptism allows believers to identify with Jesus and is performed in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The Lord's Supper: The Lord’s Supper is a commemoration of the death of the Lord and is done in remembrance of Him until He comes again, and is a sign of our participation in Him. Both institutions are restricted to those who are believers.

We affirm the bodily, personal, second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the Saints, the Millennium, and the final judgment. The final judgment will determine the eternal status of both the saints and the unbelievers, determined by their relationship to Jesus Christ. We affirm with the Bible the final state of the New Heavens and New Earth.

We affirm there are two sexes as created by God - male and female (Gen. 1 - 2), and that marriage is a sacred institution exclusively between one man and one woman (Matt. 19:4-6).

Sexuality and the divinely prescribed boundaries for the expression thereof is covered clearly in the Holy Scriptures, which limit sexual expression to the marital relationship of one (1) man with one (1) woman.

Homosexual acts, adultery, bestiality, and all forms of fornication are categorically condemned in the Holy Scriptures. See 1 Corinthians 6:18; 1 Thes. 4:3; Rom. 1:26-27; Prov. 5:3-4, 8-13; 7:21-27; Gal. 5:19; Exodus 20:14; Deut. 5:18; Matt. 5:27; 19:18; Luke 18:20; Rom. 13:9; James 2:11; Lev. 20:10-21; 1 Cor. 6:18; 10:8; and Jude 7.

Furthermore, the Church believes that sexuality is assigned by God at birth, whatever that may be, and the Holy Scripture does not permit an individual to alter their sexual identity physically or otherwise. See Deut. 23:1.
