-
The Bible is the only inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God.
-
There is one God, eternally existent in Three Persons: Father, Son & Holy Spirit.
-
The deity of Jesus Christ in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory.
-
That for the salvation of the lost and sinful humanity, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential and that repentance from sin and acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the only way to come into a relationship with God.
-
In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to have a godly life. We further believe his power and gifts are available to believers today.
-
In the resurrection of both the saved and the lost. Those who are saved unto the resurrection of life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
-
That it is important to uphold the scriptural practices of the early church. Therefore, we hold to the practice of water baptism and the regular taking of communion. We do not believe that either of these practices is essential for salvation, but they shall serve as a demonstration of our living faith in Christ.
