Affirmation of Faith:
1. The Word of God: We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme
authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
2. The Trinity: We believe that there is one living and true God, eternally existing in three persons. God The Father, God The Son, and God The Holy Spirit are equal in every divine perfection, and they execute distinct but harmonious offices in the work of creation, providence and redemption.
3. God the Father: We believe in God, the Father, an infinite, personal spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love. We believe He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
4. God the Son - Jesus Christ: We believe in Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son, conceived by the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles and teachings. We believe in His Substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension into heaven, perpetual intercession for His people, and personal visible return to earth.
5. God The Holy Spirit: We believe in the Holy Spirit who came forth from the Father and the Son to convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify, and empower all who believe in Jesus Christ. We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Christ, and that He is an abiding helper, teacher and guide.
6. Regeneration: We believe that all men are sinners by nature and by choice and are, therefore, under condemnation. We believe that all men need a Savior, and that God the Father gave His Son, The Lord Jesus Christ, to pay the penalty for our sin and to be our Savior. We believe that we are born again by grace, through faith, and not by our own doing. We believe Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
7. Eternal Security: We believe that our regeneration (salvation) mentioned above is fully wrought by the work of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross. His Work is sufficient to save all true believers everywhere throughout all time. All those who are saved remain saved forever by the unchangeable covenant of God's Grace and the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit.
8. The Church: We believe in the universal church, a living spiritual body of which Christ is the head and all regenerated persons are members. We believe in the local church, consisting of believers in Jesus Christ, associated for worship, work and fellowship. We believe that God has laid upon members of the local church the primary task of giving the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost world.
9. Christian Conduct: We believe that a Christian should live for the glory of God both in private and in public, in vocation and in worship; to serve the well-being of his community, country, and world; that he should be a faithful steward of his possessions; that he should walk in all matters of life in a manner worthy of the calling which he has been called; and submit to the providential work of grace in his life to realize the full stature of maturity in Christ, for God's glory and the benefit of His Church.
10. The ordinances: We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has committed two ordinances to the local church: baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe that Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the triune God. We believe that the Lord's Supper was instituted by Christ for commemoration of His death. We believe that these two ordinances should be observed and administered until the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
11. Religious Liberty: We believe that every human being is accountable to God, and is responsible to God alone in all matters of faith; that the church is independent and must be free from interference by any ecclesiastical or political authority; that therefore Church and State must be kept separate as having different functions.
12. The Last Things: We believe in the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ from heaven to deliver the Church unto Himself. After a seven year period of Tribulation upon the earth we believe in the personal and visible return of the Lord Jesus Christ to earth and the establishment of His kingdom. We believe in the resurrection of the body, the final judgment, the eternal life of the righteous, and the endless suffering of those who reject Christ as Savior and Lord (unbelievers).
13. Satan: We believe Satan is a created being and that Hell is a place of eternal conscious punishment. That Satan was created with might (as an angel) only second to God, that he rebelled against God and led angels (now known as demons) to fall with him. His demons take their orders from him, he is in authority over the unsaved, comes in conflict with believers, and is a liar and the author of lies. His final doom is the lake of fire.
