We believe the Bible, and all of the 66 books contained therein, to be the only inspired, infallible Word of God and our guide in all matters of our faith and practice. We believe in one eternally existent God, who is Creator and Sustainer of all things and exists in three persons as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe that Mankind, though created by God perfect in His image, suffered the physical consequences of Adam and Eves' disobedience and because of that and our sinful choices thereafter are under God's wrath as sinners deserving eternal punishment. We believe that God so loved the world that He sent His one and only Son Jesus the Christ to be born of a virgin, to live a sinless life and to die for us, “the just for the unjust”, that whoever believes and receives this gift of Grace in repentance and faith will have eternal life. This repentance from sin is necessary for salvation and without repentance, sinners will suffer in Hell for all eternity. We also believe that the justification of repentant sinners before God is a Sovereign act of His Grace and cannot be bought or earned through human effort. Salvation then comes totally through faith in the finished work of Christ on the Cross as a propitiation for our sin and its eternal consequences. We believe that Jesus bodily rose from the dead and ascended to the right hand of the Father, where He now lives and ministers forever as the “one” Mediator between God and Man. Jesus will return to Earth a second time, raising the dead believers up to Him in the air, followed by the living ones and in the final resurrection to follow He will raise and judge all who have ever lived. At that time the wicked will be eternally punished and the righteous, as His Bride, will receive the fullness of life everlasting in His Presence. We believe that the Holy Spirit of God enters into and regenerates all those who repent of their sin and commit themselves to Christ as their Savior and Lord. We believe that once there, the Holy Spirit carries on the work of continual sanctification in our lives thereafter. We believe that the Holy Spirit distributes spiritual gifts to all believers for the common good, but that no one “particular” gift signifies His Baptism or filling. We believe that the visible Church of Christ is a body of baptized believers and that the election of its' officers belongs to its' members alone. While amendable to no earthly authority but Christs' and the Scriptures, the Church should show due regard to the counsel, needs and interests of our sister churches around the world who share our beliefs and faith. We believe that Baptism as the first public act of obedience for the new believer is the Scripturally recognized door into the visible Church and should be done (barring special or emergency circumstances) by immersion. Baptism and the observance of the Lord's Supper, instituted by Christ for His perpetual remembrance until He returns are the two recognized ordinances of the Church.
We also believe that the first day of the week, that we celebrate as the Lord's Day, should be like the Old Testament Sabbath kept sacred to religious purposes by abstinence from all unnecessary commerce and profit making labor and by attending on that day worship services for the cultivation of our personal and Church community life. We believe that God established marriage to be a lifelong covenant relationship between one biological man and one biological woman only. Marriage so defined is the only permissible context for intimate sexual expression and is the God given foundation for a human family. We further believe that human life is precious and should be protected from beginning, at fertilization, until death.
