Doctrinal Statement
-
We hold the Bible to be God's Holy Word in its entirety and inspired
in every part by the Holy Spirit.
(2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21)
-
We hold that man was created in the image of God, holy and innocent:
that of his own choice, he sinned, and, as a result, brought death
upon all humanity.
(Romans 3:23; 5:12; 6:23)
Those who are not
saved from sin are eternally separated from God.
(John 3:18)
-
We hold that Jesus Christ is God, born of a virgin, that He gave his
life on the cross where He, Who knew no sin, was made sin for us: that
He was buried and arose again from the dead, afterward he ascended
into heaven, from whence he will come again.
(John 5:39; 2
Corinthians 5:21; I Corinthians 15:4; Acts 2:9-11)
-
We hold that we are saved by grace through faith, apart from works,
that the sinner who repents and personally accepts the finished work
of Christ on the cross becomes a child of God, is made a new creature,
and is indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
(Ephesians 2:8,9; John 1:12; 2
Corinthians 5:17; John 14:17)
-
We hold that Jesus Christ is coming again for his church, to establish
his kingdom on earth, to judge the wicked and the lost, cast death and
hell into the Lake of Fire, and dwell with the saints forever and ever.
(John 14:3; Titus 1:13; I Thessalonians 5:16, 17; Revelation 20:6; 20:14;
20:15; 22:1-5)
