:: What We Believe
  • In One true God, revealed as a triune being: The Father, The Son, and  The Holy Spirit.    
  • The Deity of Jesus Christ.   He is God. 
  • The Holy Spirit is a Divine Person.
  • The Old and New Testaments are the Divinely Inspired Word of God and the final authority in all matters. 
  • All have sinned and come short of the Glory of God and are in need of salvation.
  • Salvation has been provided in the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer. 
  • Salvation is 100% a work of the Grace of God, received by Faith, and can in no way be earned by human works.
  • It is the Will of God that every believer is filled with the Holy Spirit. 
  • Healing is provided in the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer. 
  • The Church consists of all those who have received Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. 
  • Victorious living is possible by the power of the Holy Spirit.
  • There shall be a bodily resurrection of the righteous and of the unrighteous. 
  • We believe in the personal, visible, imminent return of Jesus Christ. 
  • We believe in water baptism and observance of the Lord's Supper as outward symbols of the inward work of the Holy Spirit through Faith in Jesus Christ.
