Church Doctrine

There is one God, Who infinitely, perfectly exists eternally in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit- each of whom possesses equally all the attributes of Deity. Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He existed with the Father before the foundation of the earth and transcends time and space. Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 1:23; 28:19, John 1:18

The Bible is the infallible Word of God. It was inspired by the Holy Spirit through the hands of human authors and is without error in the original manuscripts. The sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are the complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men and the Divine and final authority for Christian faith and life. 2 Timothy 3:15-17, 1 Thessalonians 2:13, 2 Peter 1:21

Salvation may only be obtained by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and His completed work at Calvary. By confessing the Lord Jesus and believing in one’s heart that God has raised Him from the dead does one make confession unto salvation. Good works are not a condition of salvation, but rather a result. The indwelling Holy Spirit guides, teaches and empowers the believer to live a victorious life, free from the bondage of sin and corruption. Luke 24:47, John 3:3, Romans 10:13-15, Ephesians 2:8, Titus 2:11, Titus 3:5-7

Mankind was created in the image and likeness of God, but through disobedience (sin) he fell into a state of separation from God. The result of this fallen state is both physical and spiritual death. It is God’s desire that every believer live a Spirit-filled life. The evidence of a Spirit-filled life will be love, boldness and thankfulness to God for all things — good and bad. Genesis 1:26,27, Genesis 2:17, Genesis 3:6, Romans 5:12-19, 1 Peter 1:15,16

We believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit as set forth by the Holy Scriptures. The gifts are given for the edification of the church and the building of the Kingdom of God. The gifts of the Spirit are not in any way related to obtaining salvation but rather given freely by God to each believer according to His sovereignty. John 7:37-39, Acts 4:8, Hebrews 12:28, Acts 2:42, Mark 16:20

There will be a day very soon when Jesus will gather together those who believe in Him in a snatching away or “Rapture of the Church.” This is not the second coming of Christ but rather precedes His coming. The Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is imminent. This vital truth gives the believer the incentive to live a holy and upright life being faithful to the calling of God. 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17, Romans 8:23, Titus 2:13, 1 Corinthians 15:51,52

We believe in the ordinance of baptism by immersion as commanded by the Lord Jesus. This experience is identification with Jesus in His death, burial and resurrection. Baptism is in no way related to the obtainment of salvation, but rather a desire to fulfill all righteousness resulting from salvation. Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 10:47,48, Romans 6:4

We believe in the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper (communion) as an emblem of the broken body and shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 11:26

We believe in the Lord’s command to, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19
