Statement of faith:
1. We believe the bible is the inerrant, inspired, entirely truthful [John 17:17, Psalm 119:160] and infallible Word of God. God's Word is the final authority for faith and life.2.Tim.3:16-17
2. We believe there is only one God, and He has chosen to reveal Himself as God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Matt.28:19
3. We believe man was created in the image of God and the sin of Adam (the first man) marred that image, creating an eternal divide between God and man. Every person is born in sin.Rom.3:23
4.We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ is absolutely essential.
5. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved to eternal life [Heaven] and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation [Hell]
6. We believe in the ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life.
7.We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance according to Acts 2:4, and in the operation of the spiritual gifts and ministries.
8. We believe the church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a local body of believers on mission to enlarge God's kingdom.
9. We believe in water baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper as ordinances of the church.
10. The redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing of the human body in answer to believing prayer.
11. We believe in the practical application of the Christian faith in every day experience and in the need to minister to people in every area of life, which includes not only the spiritual but also the social, political and physical.
12.We believe in the force of prayer. We believe in miracle [signs and wonders].
-We believe we are to show forth the praises of him who has called us out of darkness in light
These are the principles that guide our growth as a church and as a
community.
