STATEMENT OF FAITH
We Believe
| 1. | The Bible ( The word of God) equally in all parts and without error in its origin, inspired by God. |
| 2. | The one God, eternally existent Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who created man by a direct immediate act. |
| 3. | The pre-existence, incarnation, virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, ascension to heaven and the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. |
| 4. | The fall of man, the need of regeneration by the operation of the Holy Spirit on the basis of grace alone and the resurrection of all or damnation. |
| 5.

The spiritual relationship of all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, living a life of righteous works, separated from the world and witnessing of His saving grace through the ministry of the Holy Spirit. |
| 6. |
The
sanctity of life (all life, living, and unborn); |
| 7 |
The sanctity of marriage (man and woman); |

| CREED |
We
believe the Holy Bible is fully inspired by God’s Spirit in the original
languages. We
believe in One God, existing in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit. We
believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, became man without
ceasing to be God, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful
men. We
believe that the Holy Spirit came forth from the Father and the Son to
convict the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment; and to
regenerate, sanctify, comfort and heal those who believe in Jesus Christ. We
believe that man is totally depraved in that of himself he is utterly
unable to remedy his lost condition. We
believe that salvation is the gift of God, brought to man by grace and
received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose atoning blood
was shed on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. We
believe in the water baptism of believers, symbolizing the believer’s
union in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We
believe in the observance of the Lord’s Supper, commemorating the
sacrifice of our Savior
for all mankind. We
believe the life of the believer is to be separated from the world by
consistent conduct before God and man, and is to be in the world as life
giving light. We
believe in the personal and visible and bodily return of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
