We believe in One God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the maker of heaven and earth, the ruler and preserver of all life. John 10:30; John 17:21 & 22; I Cor, 8:6; Eph. 4:5)
We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, the incarnation of the son, born of a virgin, the very God for whom and by whom all things were created. (I John 1:1-10)
We believe in the propitiation of the Lord Jesus Christ, that He, by the grace of God, tasted death for every man and that all must be born again through faith in Him, or are forever lost. Redemption is accomplished by the cross and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ by grace, through faith, believing in the heart that God raised Him from the dead. Salvation is by Jesus Christ and none other, for God has highly exalted Him and given Him a name which is above every name that at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, of things in heaven and of things in earth, and of things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Heb. 2:9; John 3:1-18, 6.14-49; Eph.2:8; Romans 10:9; Phil, 2:9-11)
We believe in the physical resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ and that He ascended bodily into heaven, and is now at the right hand of the Father as our mediator, high priest, and advocate. (Acts 3:12-26; John 20; Heb. 9:24; I Cor. 15:12-28)
We believe in water baptism and Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) as the ordinances of the church which are to be observed as public declaration of salvation through Jesus and in commemoration of His death, burial and resurrection in victory over Satan, death, hell and the grave. (Matt. 28:19-20; Luke 22:19-20)
We believe in the personal, visible, imminent return of Jesus Christ both "for" His Saints and "with" His Saints to reign in victory. (I Thess. 4:13-18; I Cor. 15:50-55; Rev. 19:19-20, 20:1-6)
We believe in Jesus Christ as the sovereign giver of spiritual gifts to the church. We believe spiritual gifts are given for the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of the ministry and for the edifying of the body of Christ and are given without regard to ethnicity, social class or gender. (Eph. 4:7-12; Gal. 3:26-28)
We believe in the autonomy of the local church as an independent entity with regard to matters of government, polity operation and discipline. (I Cor. 5:5; I Thess. 5:21; Il Thess.3:6, 14-15; Acts 6:3-5, 11:22; Titus 1:5.
We believe in the value of biblical terminology of leadership in the post-modern church:
Apostle, Bishop, Overseer, Teacher, Evangelist, Elder, Minister, Deacon, Missionary. We believe all these are designations for servant-leaders. (Jer. 3:15; Acts 20:28; II Cor. 6:4;Eph. 4:11 & 12; I Tim. 11 & 12.
We believe in the Bible as the inspired, infallible, Word of God, inerrant in the original autographs and the only rule of faith, guide for practice and indisputable and ultimate authority of the revelation of God, His will and His way. (II Tim. 3:16-17; Psalms 19:7-11;II Peter 1:16-21).
