Statement Of Faith
We believe all scripture (Old and New Testament) is inspired by God and it is the only reliable source for our rule of faith and practice.
We believe the Godhead exists in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the new birth (being born again) in and through Christ alone and the eternal security of the believer.
We believe in the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Christ, and His bodily ascension into heaven wherein He now intercedes for believers.
We believe in the pre-tribulational rapture of all believers, the pre-millennial return, and millennial reign of the Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in the two judgments—the Judgment Seat of Christ for believers and the Great White Throne of judgment for unbelievers.
We believe in the reality of heaven and hell.
We believe in the local church as God’s autonomous institution for believers and the practice of two ordinances—Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
We believe in two Scriptural offices—the pastor and deacon.
We believe that every believer is responsible to live a holy life and to practice separation both ecclesiastically and personally.
We believe that every believer should witness to others of the saving power of the gospel and carry out both at home and abroad the Great Commission.
We believe in the priesthood of individual believers, soul liberty, and the freedom to interpret the Bible individually.
We believe that the process of inspiration ended with the original manuscripts and that God superintended the preservation of His Word throughout the church age. The King James Version is an accurate and trustworthy translation of God's preserved truth and is the only version used from the pulpit and in the classrooms. We further believe that Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic studies are valid tools to help translate and interpret those preserved manuscripts in their original languages.
