OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe that the Bible is the infallible,
verbally inspired Word of God and that it is,
therefore, our final authority in matters of
faith, practice, and conduct.
We believe in the eternally existing, triune
God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ in His
virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His
miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death
through His shed blood, in His bodily
resurrection , and in His ascension to the
right hand of the Father where He now acts
as Mediator and Advocate.
We believe in the personal, imminent return
of the Lord Jesus Christ for His own, in His
later return in power and glory with His own
to reign in righteousness over the earth and
in the resurrection of both the saved and the
lost -- they that are saved into the
resurrection of life and they that are lost unto
the resurrection of damnation.
We believe that Heaven is the place of
eternal blessedness for the saved and that
Hell is the place of eternal conscious
punishment for the lost.
We believe that regeneration by the Holy
Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation
of lost and sinful men and that all who
receive the Lord Jesus Christ by faith are
born again and become the children of God.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy
Spirit whose indwelling in all believers
enables them to live godly lives.
