We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of Holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. We accept the New Covenant, as recorded in the New Testament, as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine.

SALVATION - is the gift of God to man, separate from works and the Law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God. (Ephesians 2:8-10)

THE GODHEAD- Our God is one, but manifested in three persons-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4 * Philipians 2:6 * 2 Timothy 3:16 * 2 Peter 1:21)

THE DIETY OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST - Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He was born of a virgin (Matthew 1:23 * Luke 1:31, 35), lead a perfect, sinless life (Hebrews 7:26 * 1 Peter 2:22) died on the cross for the remission of our sins (1 Corinthians 15:3 * 2 Corinthians 5:21) was resurrected from the dead (Matthew 28:6 * Luke 24:39 * 1 Corinthians 15:4). He is exalted to the right hand of God (Acts 1:9 * Acts 2:33 * Philipians 2:9-11, Hebrews 1:3) he will one day return.


		MAN, HIS FALL AND REDEMPTION - Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God, but through Adam's transgression and fall, sin came into the world. The Bible states, "...all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." and "...there is none righteous, no, not one." (Romans 5:14 * John 15:26)

	ETERNAL LIFE AND NEW BIRTH- Man's first step toward salvation is godly sorrow that leads to repentance. The new birth is necessary to all men, and when experienced, produces eternal life. (2 Corinthians 7:10 * John 3:3-5 * 1 John 5:12) WATER BAPTISM - Baptism in water by immersion is a direct commandment of our Lord and is for believers only. The ordinance is a public symbol of the Christians identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. (Matthew 28:19 * Romans 6:4 * Colossians 2:12 * Acts 8:36-39) BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT - The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the new birth. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues the Holy Spirit gives utterance. (Matthew 3:11 * John 14:16-17 * Acts 1:8 * Acts 2:38-39 * Acts 19:1-7 * Acts 2:1-4)
