That the Bible is God's only Holy Word, verbally and fully inspired in the original text, and that it is the supreme
authority in all matters of faith and conduct and is the only text to and for men.
That there is one God, eternal
existant in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In God the Father, perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom,
measureless in power, that He hears and answers prayers, and that He saves from sin and death all who
repent of their
sins and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
In Jesus Christ, the divine, eternal and begotten Son of God. We believe
that in His earthy life He was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin and lived a sinless life. We believe in His
vicarious and atoning death for the sins of all He has called and are His elect in the world. We believe in His bodily resurrection
from the dead, His ascension to the right hand of the Father to make intercession for the saints, His elect, and His personal,
visible, return to the world in power and glory.
In the Holy Spirit, in His personality and deity, that He was sent
forth from the Father to convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement. We believe that He is come to regenerate,
indwell, sanctify, instruct and comfort the saints.
That all men are, by nature and by choice, sinners, destitute
of all power to save themselves. We believe, therefore, that the only means of salvation of sinful men is the regeneration
work of the Holy Spirit on the basis of the atoning work of Christ through personal faith in Christ. We believe in the resurrection
of all men, those that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation and those that are regenerated to the resurrection of eternal
life.
In the church--the living spiritual body of which all regenerated persons are members. We believe that the Lord
laid upon the church the task of taking the Gospel message unto all the world as a witness, giving a warning message of impending
judgment to all who will not repent of their sins, and the glorious hope of salvation through the sacrificed blood of the
Lamb Of God, Jesus Christ and in Jesus Christ alone.
We believe that we were at one time under the laws of God which condemned us but after salvation have been taken out
from beneath those laws by Jesus Christ's sacrifice on the cross. We believe that Jesus Christ alone is our salvation
and that no amount of law keeping or any other works that we do can save us.
That all Christians
are ordained by the Holy Spirit to spread the Gospel with whatever gift they are given from God. Not all are to be Pastors
but all are to use their Gift of God to present the gospel. [1 corinthians 12:28-31]
That the primary message to the
world is, one must repent of their sins, through confession to God that he/she is a sinner hopelessly lost, and that Jesus
Christ took his/her full penalty of that sin, and believes that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead, and now seated at the
right hand of God in heaven.
That living the unrepentive lifestyle of a homosexual is a sin, we believe that it is
a sin the same as stealing, adultery, fornication ect. all of which must be repentented of.
That the method of baptism
is by water submersion of his/her body. This is to represent the spiritual burial of the old man and the resurrection of the
new man in Christ. We also believe that ones salvation is not dependent on baptism, but that baptism is the outward evidence
of ones desire to be obedient to God and His commands.
In a real hell, a place of eternal torment that will last for
all eternity of which once there, there is no way out. We believe that the unrepentive sinner will be forever separated from
God in hell.
In a real heaven, a place that all believes go immediately upon the death of their earthy bodies. They
are in a conscious state and are glorifying God.
That "The Lord's Supper" as often as it is taken, is the second of
the two sacraments, the other is baptism, that the church is commanded to administer to the saints. We also believe that the
Lord's Supper is only to be taken by those that are believers.
Please be advised that we will not Ordain anyone outside of the traditional Protestant Church. We believe that salvation
can only be obtained through Jesus Christ and not through any Law keeping or by keeping a Saturday Sabbath. We believe
that the New Testament Church established keeping Sunday as the day of the week to come together. They set this day aside
because it was on that day that Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
