Our Beliefs

The Bible
The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the authority for salvation and Christian living.

I Timothy 3:15-17

Salvation
We believe that salvation is only found in Jesus Christ and is appropriated to humanity by God’s grace through the New Testament new-birth experience.

Acts 4:12; Ephesians 2:8; John 3:3-7

The Holy Spirit
We believe that the evidence of Holy Spirit infilling is speaking in other tongues.

Acts 10:45-46

The Christian Life
As Christians we are to love God and others. We should live a holy life inwardly and outwardly, and worship God joyfully. The supernatural gifts of the Spirit, including healing, are for the church today.

Mark 12:28-31; 2 Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Corinthians 12:8-10

God

We believe that there is one true and living God. Whose name is Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 4:5; Deuteronomy 6:4; Colossians 2:9

God

We believe that there is one true and living God. Whose name is Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 4:5; Deuteronomy 6:4; Colossians 2:9

The New Birth
We believe that the new-birth experience consists of repentance, water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, and the infilling of the Holy Spirit. This is the New Testament pattern for all believers to follow as a result of their faith in Christ.

Acts 2:38; Luke 13:1-5; Acts 10:44-48; Acts 19:5-6

The Future
Jesus Christ is coming again to catch away His church. In the end will be the final resurrection and the final judgment. The righteous will inherit eternal life, and the unrighteous eternal death.

I Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-15
