What We Believe
Bible. We believe and accept the entire Bible as the infallible and inspired Word of God. (II Peter 1:21; II Timothy 3:16-17; Romans 1:16; Revelation 22:18-19)
Jesus. We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is God. He assumed a human body through a virgin called Mary to be both divine and human. (John 1:1-14; I Timothy 3:16)
Regeneration. We believe that regeneration is received only through faith in Jesus Christ, who was raised from the dead. (Romans 10:9-11; Ephesians 2:8)
Baptism. We believe in baptism by immersion in water in the name of Jesus Christ. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16; Acts 2:38, Acts 4:12, Acts 8:16, Acts 19:1-5, II Corinthians 5:17; Ephesians 4:5, Colossians 3:17)
Holy Spirit. We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the initial sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. (Mark 16:17, Luke 24:49, John 3:5 Acts 1:5-8, Acts 2:1-4, Acts 8:17, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 11:15- 16, Acts 19:6,Jude 20)
Holiness. We believe in holy living as shared in the Bible. (Luke 1:74-75; I Peter 1:13-16; Galatians 5:16-24; Hebrews 12:14)
Communion. We believe in commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ through the taking of communion. (Luke 22:19-20; I Corinthians 11:23-26)
Giving. We believe in giving of the first fruits, tithes, and offerings as established in the Bible. (Numbers 18:25-26, Deuteronomy 14:22, Proverbs 3:9-10, Malachi 3:8-12)
Healing. We believe that provision is made in the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ for the healing of the body. The prayer of faith for the sick and anointing with oil are taught in the Bible and are privileges for the church in this present age. (Isaiah 53:4-5; Matthew 8:16-17; Mark 16-18; John 5:14; James 5:14)
Rapture. We believe in the return of the Lord Jesus Christ for his Church. (Acts 1:11; I Thessalonians 4:16; 1 Corinthians 15:51-54)
Love. We believe in expressing the Love of God. (Matthew 22:37-39; John 13:35; Romans 5:5; Romans 13:9-10; I Corinthians 13:1-5; Galatians 5:22; II Timothy 1:7; I Peter 2:17; I John 4:7-21; Jude 21)
Faith. We believe in the importance of walking by faith as shared in the Bible. (Habakkuk 2:4; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Hebrews 11:1, 6)
Marriage. We believe sex is a gift for marriage and that marriage is between one man and one woman. (Matthew 19:4-6; 1 Corinthians 7:2-3; Hebrews 13:4)
