What
We Believe
This
church accepts the Holy Scripture as the revealed will of God, the
all-sufficient rule for faith and practice, and for the purpose of
maintaining general unity adopts the following statement of fundamental
truths:
We
believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible and authoritative
Word of God.
We
believe that there is one God, eternally existent in the Godhead; God the
Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost.
We
believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His
bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and
in the blessed hope of His personal visible future return to receive unto
Himself His blood brought church that it may be with Him forever.
We
believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through
regeneration by the Holy Spirit and this is absolutely essential for
personal salvation.
We
believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing
of the human body in answer to believing in prayer.
We
believe in the baptism in water as a public demonstration of a clear
conscience with God.
We
believe that the baptism with the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4 is
given to believers who ask for it.
We
believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling
the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
We
believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the one to
everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation.
