What We Believe

  • We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible Word of God (Romans 15:4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17).

  • We believe that there is One God; eternally existent as The Father, Son and Holy Ghost (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 John 5:7).

  • We believe in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ, at His return (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17; Titus 2:13)

  • We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance: faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ (Mark 16:16; Hebrews 9:22).

  • We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation (John 3:3, 5).

  • We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in the answer to believing prayer (Isaiah 53:5; 1 Peter 2:24).

  • We believe that the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.

  • We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in this present world (2 Corinthians 6:17-7:1)
