What We Believe:
We believe in one God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Creator of all things and the Bible in its entirety as infallible and to be the inspired Word of God.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the first-begotten Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, died and was buried, was resurrected, ascended into heaven, and is now seated at the right hand of God interceding for us.
We believe in the rapture, that the dead in Christ shall rise first and those who are alive shall be caught up to meet Jesus in the air; the eternal happiness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost.
We believe in personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of Jesus Christ and that salvation is by grace through faith, by believing with the heart and confessing with the mouth the Lord Jesus, all shall be saved.
We believe in sanctification through the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit, and we believe in personal holiness, purity of heart.
We believe in divine healing, through faith in the Name of Jesus Christ, and that healing is included in the Redemption and that by His stripes we are healed.
We believe in water baptism, in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit as distinct from the New Birth, in speaking with tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance, in the gifts of the Spirit, and the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit. We believe that all of these are available to us now.
We believe in receiving tithes and offerings in the local church and giving alms to the poor and caring for the needy, sick, homeless and the otherwise unfortunate.
