Doctrinal Statement
II Timothy 2:15
Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
- We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be the inspired word of God. The Scriptures, in the form of the King James 1611 version, are inerrant, infallible, and are the final authority for faith and life.
- We believe that the Bible reveals divinely determined dispensations which define man's responsibilities towards God in successive ages.
- We believe in one God, existing eternally in three persons, a body, soul, and spirit.
- We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ the eternal Son of God, became a man, without ceasing to be God.
- We believe that all men are sinners, and because of their sin are alienated from God, and by himself, unable to remedy his lost condition.
- We believe that salvation is a gift of God brought to man by grace and received by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Whose blood was shed for the forgiveness of sins. We believe further, that the eternal Salvation of the sinner, in this dispensation, is wholly by Grace through Faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
- We believe in an eternal salvation; and that all the redeemed, once saved, are kept by God's power and are thus secure in Christ forever.
- We believe that the church, which is the body of Christ is solely made up of born-again persons.
- We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is to return literally and bodily from heaven.
- We believe in the bodily resurrection of all men, the saved to eternal life, and the unsaved to judgment and everlasting punishment.
- We believe that Satan is a person, the author of Sin and the cause of the fall of man.
- We believe that God created the universe in six literal days. We reject the theory of evolution, and Theistic Evolution, on the grounds of Scripture and scientific fact.
- We believe that God has given the church a great commission to proclaim the Gospel to all nations.
