1. Trinity—We believe there is but one true and living God whose essence is spirit and who exists in a
Trinity of equal persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and that they are each equal and infinite
in their being, power, glory, and attributes.

The Father—We believe that God the Father is the First Person of the divine Trinity who is absolute in
His deity possessing all the attributes of deity and equal with the Son and the Holy Spirit.

2. Jesus Christ—We believe in the absolute deity of Jesus Christ our Lord and that He shares equally in
all the attributes of deity with the Father and the Holy Spirit. We believe in His virgin birth, in His perfect
and sinless humanity, in His miracles and in their literalness, in His substitutionary, satisfactory,
propitiatory, atoning death on Calvary, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the
Father, in His present intercessory ministry, and in His personal return for the Church.

3. Holy Spirit—We believe in the absolute and full deity of the Holy Spirit, the Third Member of the
blessed Trinity, who is equal with the Father and the Son. It was the Father who gave His Son, the Son
who gave His life, and it is the Holy Spirit who today gives spiritual life to those who believe in Christ. He
indwells the believer and empowers him and Christ’s Church for service giving the various gifts to the
members of the body of Christ to aid the Church in accomplishing the Great Commission.

4. Scriptures—We believe that holy men of old wrote the Bible as they were moved (lit. “Being borne
along”) by the Holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:21), which harmonizes with 2 Timothy 3:15, which teaches that all
Scripture is inspired (lit. “God breathed” or “breathed out by God”). This means that the Holy Spirit so
superintended the writers of the Holy Scripture that, although they utilized their own vocabularies and
experiences, they wrote the very exact message God intended without any omission, addition, or error
which means that the Bible is theologically, historically, scientifically, and geographically correct since
the Holy Spirit is incapable of erring. Being plenary verbally inspired by the Holy Spirit guarantees the
infallibility and inerrancy of the Bible in every area in which it speaks and makes it the highest authority
and guide for the believer. The King James Version of the Bible shall be the official and only translation
used by the church.

5. Salvation—We believe in salvation by grace totally apart from any human merit. Salvation is bestowed
by a gracious God upon unworthy man conditioned solely upon his faith in Jesus Christ and His
finished work on Calvary (Ephesians 2:8-10; John 3:16).

6. Resurrection—We believe in future bodily resurrection of the believer, at which time he will receive a
resurrected glorified body, and that the new body will be joined with the soul so that the child of God will
spend eternity to come as a body/soul being. We likewise believe that the unbeliever will be resurrected
with a body and soul, which will forever suffer in the torments of hell.


7. Devil—We believe in the existence of a literal personal evil and malicious being called Satan or the
Devil who led a rebellion against God at some point before creation and was cast out of heaven along
with the angels (demons) who followed him. He and his demonic hordes seek to tempt men to sin and
thereby doom them to eternity in the fires of hell. His doom and that of mankind who follow him has
been pronounced as the lake of fire where he will one day be banished and shut up forever.

8. Church—We believe in the local church as God’s autonomous, self-governing, divinely ordained
institution for this age, whose head is Christ (Ephesians 5:22-23; Colossians 1:18) and whole life and
vitality are produced by the regenerating indwelling presence and power of the Holy Spirit. We believe
that the Great Commission (to evangelize and edify) is still the great task of the Church today (Matthew
28:18-20). We believe that the individual local church is the highest spiritual authority on earth outside
the Christian home and that all other parachurch organizations or institutions exist by the authority
granted by the local church or cooperating local churches, and that their only right of existence is as they
ultimately aid the Church in fulfilling the Great Commission.


9. Ordinances—We believe that God has given His Church the ordinance of Baptism, which is to be
administered only to believers, by immersion and in the name of Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit; and
the Lord’s Supper, which is to be open to all born again believers present; and the washing of the Saint’
s feet—Matthew 28:19,20; Romans 6:3,4; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; John 13: 1-17.


10. Human Sexuality—we believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged
in outside of marriage between a man and woman. We believe that any form of homosexuality,
lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication, adultery and pornography are sinful perversions of
God’s gift of sex.
(Gen. 2:22-24; Gen. 19:5-13; Gen. 26:8-9; Lev. 18:1-30; Rom. 1:26-29, 1 Cor. 5:1,6-9; 1 Thess. 4:1-8;
Heb. 13:4).

We believe that the only legitimate marriage is the joining of one man and one woman (Gen. 2:24; Rom.
7:2; 1 Cor. 7-10; Eph. 5:22-23)

11. Missions—We believe that God has given the church a great commission to proclaim the Gospel to
all nations so that there might be a great multitude from every nation, tribe, ethnic group, and language
group who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. As ambassadors of Christ we must use all available
means to go to the foreign nations and not wait for them to come to us (Matt. 28:19-20; Mark 13:10; 16:
15; Luke 24:46-48; John 20:21; Acts 1:8; 2 Cor. 5:20).

12. Giving—We believe that every Christian, as a steward of that portion of God’s wealth entrusted to
him, is obligated to support his local church financially. We believe that God has established the tithe
(10%) as a basis for giving, but that every Christian should also give other offerings sacrificially and
cheerfully to the support of the church, the relief of those in need, and the spread of the Gospel. We
believe that a Christian relinquishes all rights to direct the use of the tithe or offering once the gift has
been made (Gen. 14:20; Mal. 3:10; 28:22; Prov. 3:9-10; Acts 4:34-37; 1 Cor. 16:2; 2 Cor. 9:6-7; Gal. 6:6;
Eph. 4:28; 1 Tim. 5:17-18; 1 John 3:17).
