Statement of Faith

“What We Believe”

The Scriptures

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, the product of Men of old who spoke and wrote as the Holy Spirit moved them. The New Covenant as recorded in the New Testament, we accept as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to conduct and doctrine.

(II Timothy 3:16, I Thessalonians 2:13, II Peter 1:21).

 

The Godhead – Our God is One, but manifested in three persons – The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit, being co-equal. (Philippians 2:6).  God the Father is greater than all, the Source of the Word (logos) and the Begetter.  (John 14:28, John 16:3-8, John 1:14).

 

The Son is the Word flesh – covered, the One begotten, and has existed with the Father from the Beginning. (John 1:1, John 1:18, John 1:14).

 

The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son and is eternal. (John 15:26).

 

Man, His Fall and Redemption

Man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God, but through Adam's transgression and fall, sin came into the world. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”  As it is written, “there is none righteous, no not One.”  Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to undo the works of the devil, and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God. (Romans 5:12, Romans 3:23, Romans 3:10, I John 3:8).

Eternal Life and New Birth

Man's first step toward salvation is Godly sorrow that worketh repentance. The new birth is necessary to all men, and when fulfilled produces eternal life. (II Corinthians 7:10, I John 5:12, John 3:3-5).

Water Baptism

Baptism in water is by immersion and is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection.  (Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:12, Acts 8:36-39).
