OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

·  We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God. (II Tim 3:3-5)

·  We believe there is only one true God revealed in three   
    persons ...Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Matt. 28:19)

·  We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, as God's Son Jesus 
    was both human and divine. (John 1:1, 14)

·  We believe that man was created in God's image. By voluntary 
    transgression he fell and his only hope of redemption is Jesus   
    Christ.  ( Rom. 6:12-21)

·  We believe that every person can be restored through accepting 
    salvation through Jesus Christ. (Rom 10: 8-10)

·  We believe and practice two ordinances*

(1)     Water Baptism by Immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation, and

(2)     Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation. (Matt. 28:19; I Cor. 11:24-30)

·  We believe that the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Special
     Experience Following Salvation that empowers believers for 
     witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament
     times. (Acts 1:4-8; 2:38-39; 10:44-46; 11:14-16; 15:7-9)

·  We believe the Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy
    Spirit is *Speaking in Tongues,* as experienced on the Day of
    Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts and the Epistles.

    ( Acts 2:4; 10:44-46)

·  We believe in a Divinely Called and Scriptural Ordained Five-fold
     Ministry of Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher. 
     (Eph.4:7-13)

·  We believe that the atonement of Jesus Christ has freed the believer 
    form the curse of the fall and provides total prosperity for all in
    Christ. 
    Spiritual –  (John 33:; II Cor.5:17-21; Rom. 10:9,10 
    Mental- (II Tim.1:7; Rom. 12:2; Isa. 26:3)

    Physical - ( Isa. 53:4,5; Matt. 8:17; I Peter 2:24)

    Financial - (III John 1:2; Mal. 3:10-11; Luke 6:38; II Cor.9:6-10)

·  We believe in The Blessed Hope when Jesus Raptures His Church
    Prior to His Return to Earth (the second coming) Forever. 
    ( I Cor. 15:51,52; I Thess. 4:16,17; II Thess. 2:1)

·  We believe in The Millennial Reign of Christ when Jesus returns with
    His saints at His second coming and begins His benevolent rule over
    earth for 1,000 years. At that time many in the nation of Israel will

    recognize and accept Him as the Messiah, the Savior who died for
    them and all mankind
    (Rom 11:25; 27; II Thess. 1:7; Rev. 19:11-16 )
