1. God's WORD
A. The Bible is Inspired -- We believe the scriptures are inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind. 
(2 Timothy 3:15-17, 1 Thessalonians 2:13, 2 Peter 1:21)

2. God's PERSON
A. One True God -- We believe there is only one true God--revealed in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).
(Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 43:10, Matthew 29:19, Luke 3:22)
B. Jesus Christ is Fully God -- We believe in the city of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God's son, Jesus was born both human and divine. The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. 
(Matthew 1:23, Hebrews 7:26, Acts 2:22, 1 Corinthians 15:3, Matthew 28:6, Acts 1:9)

3. God's Plan for MAN
A. The Fall of Man -- We believe through originally good, man willingly fell to sin--ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world. 
(Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 2:17, Genesis 3:6, Romans 5:12-19)
B. The Salvation of Man -- We believe every person can have restored fellowship with God through salvation. Salvation is simply accepting Christ's offer of forgiveness for sin. 
(Luke 24:47, John 3:3, Romans 10:13-15, Ephesians 2:8, Titus 2:11-12, Ephesians 4:24)
C. Sanctification -- We believe that Christ Followers should separate themselves from evil and identity with things that are pure through a process called sanctification. 
(Romans 12:1, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, Hebrews 13:12, Hebrews 12:14)
D. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit -- We believe the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a special experience following salvation that empowers believers for witnessing and effective service, just as it did in New Testament times. 
(Luke 24:49, Acts 1:4-8, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31, Acts 8:12-17, John 7:37-39, Mark 16:20)

E. The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit -- We believe that the baptism of Christians in the Holy Spirit is accompanied by the initial physical sign of speaking in other tongues (unlearned languages) as the Spirit of God gives them audible expression. 
(Acts 2:4, 1 Corinthians 12:4-10)

F. Divine Healing -- We believe divine healing of the sick is a privilege for Christians today and is provided for in Christ's atonement. His atonement is His sacrificial death on the cross for our sins. 
(Isaiah 53:4-5, Matthew 8:16-17, James 5:14-16)


4. God's Plan for the CHURCH 
A. The Ordinances of the Church -- We believe Water Baptism by immersion after repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation, and Holy Communion (the Lord's Supper) as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's suffering and death for our salvation. 
(Baptism -- Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 10:47-48, Romans 6:4) (Holy Communion -- 2 Peter 1:4, 1 Corinthians 11:26)

B. The Church and Its Mission -- We believe the Church has a mission to seek and save all who are lost in sin. We believe 'the Church' is the body of Christ and consists of the people who, throughout time, have accepted God's offer of redemption (regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son, Jesus Christ. 
(Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:15, Ephesians 1:22-23, Hebrews 12:23)

C. The Ministry -- We believe a divinely called and scripturally ordained leadership ministry serves the Church. The Bible teaches that each of us under leadership must commit ourselves to reach others for Christ, to worship Him with other believers, and to build up or edify the body of believers--the Church. 
(Mark 16:15-20, John 4:23-24, Ephesians 4:11, 16)


5. God's Plan for ETERNITY
A. The Blessed Hope -- We believe all Christ Followers who have died will one day rise from their graves and will meet the Lord in the air. Christ Followers who have not yet died will be raptured or caught up with them, to be with the Lord. 
(Romans 8:23, 1 Corinthians 15:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, Titus 2:13)

B. The Millennial Reign of Christ -- We believe that the second coming of Christ includes the rapture of all Christ Followers, which is our blessed hope, followed by the visible return of Christ with His saints to reign on the earth for 1000 years. 
(Zechariah 14:5, Matthew 24:27, Revelation 1:7, Ezekiel 37: 21-22, Romans 11:26-27, Micah 4:3-4)

C. The Final Judgment -- We believe there will be a final judgment in which the wicked dead (those who have died without accepting Christ's salvation) will be raised and judged according to the way they lived. 
(Matthew 25:46, Mark 9:43-48, Revelation 19:20, Revelation 20:11-15, Revelation 21:8)

D. The New Heavens and the New Earth -- We believe that "according to God's promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, where righteousness will dwell and reign forever."
(2 Peter 3:13, Revelation 21-22)
