What We Believe

WE BELIEVE that the Holy Bible is the written, infallible, inerrant, inspired Word of Almighty God and is the source and foundation of all we believe. – 2 Tim 3:16-17, 2 Pet 1:19-21
 
WE BELIEVE that Jesus of Nazareth is God Almighty manifested in the flesh. –

WE BELIEVE that He was born of a virgin and conceived of the Holy Ghost. –

WE BELIEVE He was tempted in every manner just as we are, yet without sin. –
2 Corth 5:21, Isa 53:3-5 7-11, Heb 4:14-15
 
WE BELIEVE He was crucified on a cross, bled, died, was buried, and rose from the dead on the third day according to the scriptures. – John 19:16-19 33-34, Mark 15:42-46, Luke 24:45-46
 
WE BELIEVE that all men have sinned, are under the curse caused by sin, and the consequence for that sin is death. John 8:7, Rm 3:23, 1 John 1:8-10, Rm 5:12-14, 1 Corth 5:14, Rm 6:23, James 1:14-15.
 
WE BELIEVE that God our Father has accepted the death of His Son Jesus and His blood for the forgiveness of our sins. And not for ours only, but for the sins of the world.
1 John 2:1-2, Rm 3:24-26
 
WE BELIEVE all power in heaven and in earth is given to Jesus and that He shall come again with power in the clouds and judge the quick and the dead. – Matt 28:18, Phil 2:9-11, Matt 26:64, 1 Thes 4:16-17, Rm 14:10-12, Acts 10:42, 2 Tim 4:1
 
WE BELIEVE that all believers must be born of the water and of the Spirit to enter the kingdom of God.  The only reliable evidence of such a new birth is the absence of evil fruit in the life of the believer. – John 3:5, Matt 7:20, 1 John 3:9-10, 1 John 2:4
 
WE BELIEVE that whosoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ by evidence of their new birth shall live and reign in eternity with Him. – John 14:1-3, 1 Thes 4:17, Rev 22:1-5
 
WE BELIEVE in the person of the Father who is above all and through all, the person of the Holy Ghost who is given to all them who obey God, and the person of the Son who is the Lord and Savior of the world. These three agree and are One and comprise the Godhead of the only true and living God our Creator. – Eph 4:6, 1 Corth 15:24-28 Acts 5:32, John 14:26, Phil 4:10-11, 1 Tim 4:10, 1 John 5:7
 
WE BELIEVE that the tithe (tenth) is holy unto God and it is by the tithe and offering that God intends for us to support the work of His Church. Therefore, each member, as an act of faith, should give his/her tithe and offering in love, obedience and as a sacrifice unto God. – Gen 14:20, Gen 28:20-22, Lev 27:30, Num 18:21, Neh 10:35-39, Mal 3:8-10, Luke 11:42,1 Corth 16:1-2
 
We voluntarily band ourselves together as one body of baptized believers in Jesus Christ, each committed to sharing the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ to mankind everywhere.
 
The ordinances of the church as left by our Lord are baptism by water and the Lord’s Supper. – Matt 28:19, Mark 16:16, Luke 22:15-20, 1 Corth 11:23-26
