What We Believe

that the Holy Bible is God’s written revelation to all men, and is inspired by Him, without error, and is the authoritative Word of God. that God is revealed in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. that God created the heavens and earth in a state of perfection only to be marred by rebellion of the archangel, Lucifer, and a third of the angels. Lucifer became Satan, the adversary of God. Satan tempted man to rebel against God, and mankind became servants to Satan. In order for man to be restored and reconciled to God, there must be a sinless redeemer to be the substitute to pay for man’s rebellion. that Jesus Christ is God the Son in the flesh, that He was born of a virgin; and that because He is God, He led a sinless life, and performed miracles while on the earth. that Jesus Christ died on the cross to be a propitiation our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. Without shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins; therefore, we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins. that the Lord Jesus Christ was buried and He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures so that we who believe may be justified freely before God. that our Lord ascended to Heaven and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father, who is on the throne of the Universe. To this day, Jesus Christ intercedes as an Advocate for us who believe. that our Lord Jesus Christ will unexpectedly return to the earth one day to overthrow Satan and his kingdom upon this earth, and that Christ will forever reign. that Heaven is the eternal abode of those who have placed their trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, and that hell is the eternal abode of those who refuse forgiveness by Jesus Christ. that regeneration by the Holy Spirit for lost and sinful man is absolutely necessary and that the Holy Spirit ministers on earth today through indwelling believers and enables us to live a godly life. that in order to convince the world that our faith is of God, we must become one, as God and Christ are one, and by this shall men know that we are Christs disciples, if we love one another.
