We believe in The Trinity

God, the Father; God, the Son; and God, the Holy Spirit, one God, eternally existent in three persons.

Deuteronomy 6:4,

Matthew 3:16-17,

Matthew 28:19-20, 1 John 5:7

We believe in the Divine Inspiration of the Bible, that it is the true and inspired Word of God. We believe that the Bible is our standard for life, and are THE HOLY SCRIPTURES.

All scripture (Old and New Testament) is given by the inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness.

2 Timothy 3:16

1 Corinthians 10:11

We believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is the Word of God made flesh. Jesus was sent by God to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins so that we could enjoy an eternal life with Him. Jesus’ teachings on love, forgiveness, humility, and repentance are at the core of our beliefs. We also believe in Jesus’ resurrection, that it was proof of His deity and the promise of eternal life for all those who believe. We are called to follow Jesus, to live lives of holiness, and to share the good news of the gospel. As we learn to love and serve others, we are reminded of Jesus’ example of love and sacrifice.

THE DEITY OF CHRIST

Jesus is God incarnate and was manifest in human flesh. He was like us in all ways except for one, being free from sin.

Isaiah 9:6-7, John 1:1-14, John 5:22-23, John 8:54-58, John 10:30

THE FALL OF MAN

Man, by voluntary transgression, fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death.

Romans 5:12-19

THE VIRGIN BIRTH

We believe that our Lord was conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary.

Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:18-23

CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS

The vicarious atoning death of Jesus, who died on the cross so that we might live, offering Himself up as the perfect sacrifice for sinful man—the salvation of man.

Romans 5:6-10, 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10, John 3:16-17

THE BODILY RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION OF CHRIST

Christ is the risen savior. Jesus arose from the dead, ascended into Heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

Romans 8:31-35, Acts 1:8-11

We believe in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. We believe that Jesus was sent by God to save us and give us eternal life. Salvation is only possible through faith in Jesus and repentance of our sins. We understand that we are saved through grace and not by any works of our own. The Bible teaches us that no matter what mistakes we make, God’s love and grace are always available to us. We believe that through accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are able to have the assurance of salvation and the promise of eternal life with God.

THE DEITY OF CHRIST

Jesus is God incarnate and was manifest in human flesh. He was like us in all ways except for one, being free from sin.

Isaiah 9:6-7, John 1:1-14, John 5:22-23, John 8:54-58, John 10:30

THE VIRGIN BIRTH

We believe that our Lord was conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary.

Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:18-23

CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS

The vicarious atoning death of Jesus, who died on the cross so that we might live, offering Himself up as the perfect sacrifice for sinful man—the salvation of man.

THE FALL OF MAN

Man, by voluntary transgression, fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death.

Romans 5:12-19

We believe in the importance of baptism. Baptism symbolizes a believer's commitment to Jesus and His teachings, and is an outward act of confessing our faith in Him. We believe that baptism is essential to Christian discipleship, and it is a beautiful way to proclaim our allegiance to Jesus. Baptism is a sacred and meaningful experience, and we are deeply committed to helping believers celebrate this important milestone in their journey of faith. By celebrating and honoring baptism, we are proclaiming our faith in Jesus and our desire to serve Him and others.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is the unifying power between God and humanity, and is the source of our comfort, guidance, and strength. The Holy Spirit helps us to understand and appreciate the Bible, and helps us to live out its teachings in our lives. We believe that the Holy Spirit is with us always, faithfully guiding us in our walk with God. We also believe that the Holy Spirit gives us gifts such as wisdom, knowledge, understanding, healing, miracles, tongues, and prophecy so that we can be used to serve God and spread His love.

THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe that All believers are entitled to and should earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Spirit and fire, according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Luke 24:49, Acts 1:4, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31

Distinct from and subsequent to the new birth:

Acts 8:12-17, Acts 10:44-46, Acts 15:7-9

Initial evidence of this infilling is speaking in tongues:

Acts 2:4, Acts 10:46

We believe in the Christian doctrinal belief of The Church. We believe that the Church is a holy assembly of believers, united in faith and love. We strive to be a community of believers who are united in our faith in Jesus Christ and in our commitment to serve Him and His kingdom. We are committed to loving God and loving others, and to be known for our love for one another. We believe that the Church is a body of believers who are called to serve and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to all people. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we seek to be faithful disciples of Jesus and to follow His teachings. We strive to live out our faith through loving actions and service to our community and the world.

We believe in the power of prayer, both individually and corporately, as an expression of faith in God's work in our lives. Prayer is an essential part of a Christian life and is used to talk to God and to communicate with Him. We pray for guidance, strength, healing, protection, and for our families, friends, and community. Through prayer, we seek to deepen our understanding of God's will and His plans for our lives. Praying helps us grow closer to God and to gain a better understanding of His will and how we can best serve Him. When we pray, we open ourselves up to God and He will answer us in His own way and in His own time. Prayer is a beautiful and powerful way to communicate with our Heavenly Father and to seek His love and guidance.

19. THE INSTITUTION OF THE HOME

Jeremiah 1:5, Psalm 139:13, 16

Marriage is between a man and a woman only.

Genesis 2:18-25, Proverbs 5:18-19, 1 Corinthians 7:1-16

God Himself created and instituted marriage as the holy union between one man and one woman, according to the Holy Scriptures. No other form of union or marriage is acceptable in the eyes of God or by this corporation/Church.

“But from the beginning of the creation, God ‘made them male and female.’ ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’ [NW1]; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate” (Mark 10:6-9 NKJV).

Children are a heritage from the Lord and are to be brought up scripturally.

The husband is the head of the home, and he must give an account to Christ.

A distinct, separate event from the rapture of the Church. The personal, imminent return of Christ at the end of the seven-year tribulation, when He will personally and visibly return, with His saints.

A thousand years on earth, during which satan will be bound, and the Lord will have things the way He always intended for His kingdom and His saints.

23. THE HOUSE OF GOD (CHURCH FACILITIES AND PROPERTY)

We ought to conduct ourselves properly on church property and in the church facilities.

We should fear God; and when we go to the house of God, we should conduct ourselves prudently—with wisdom, honor, respect, and discretion.

Ecclesiastes 5:1

People should not be allowed to do things in the house of God that are not in accordance with the Holy Bible.

Matthew 21:12-13

All properties (land, buildings, assets, goods, resources, etc.) of this ecclesiastical Corporation will be used in compliance to the Corporation’s bylaws and will not be permitted to be used in violation of the Corporation’s religious beliefs as duly set forth in the Corporation’s governing documents, policies, and the Holy Scriptures.
