What We believe

The Bible

As the inspired Word of God.

The Bible is a product of holy man of old who spoke  and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. The New Covenant, as recorded in the New Testament, we accept as our infallible guide in matters pertaining to  conduct and doctrine.

(2 Tim, 3:16; 1 Thess, 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21)

Godhead

The GodheadOur God is one, but manifested in three Persons

God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, being co-equal. 

(Deut. 6:4; Phil. 2:6).

 God the Father is greater than all; the Sender of the Word (Logos) and the Begetter (John 14:28; John 16:28; John 1:14).  

The Son is the Word flesh-covered, the One Begetten, and has existed with the Father from the beginning. (John 1:1; John 1:18; John 1:14).

 The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father, the Son and is eternal. (John 14:16; John 15:26).

Man

Man  - Which is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God.  But through Adam’s transgression and fall, sin came into the world. The Bible says “...all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,” and “...There is none righteous, no, not one” (Rom. 3:10; 3:23). Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to undo the works of the devil and gave His life and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God.

(Rom. 5:14; 1 John 3:8).

Salvation

Salvation - Which is the gift of God to man through faith in Jesus Christ.

Salvation is the gift of God to man, separate from works and the law, and is made operative by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, producing works acceptable to God

(Eph 2:8-10)

Eternal life

First step toward salvation is Godly sorrow that worketh repentance. The New Birth is necessary to all men, and when experienced, produces eternal life.

 (2 Cor. 7:10; John 3:3–5; 1 John 5:12)

The one who physically dies in his sins without accepting Christ is eternally lost and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting.

The terms “eternal” and “everlasting,” used in describing the duration of the punishment of the damned in the lake of fire, carry the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstasy of saints in the Presence of God (Heb. 9:27; Rev. 19-20).

Divine Healing

Divine Healing -Which is the privilege of the body of Christ provided through Jesus’ death on the Cross

Healing is for the physical ills of the human body and is wrought by the power of God through the prayer of faith, and by the laying on of hands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privilege of every member of the Church today.

 (James 5:14, 15; Mark 16:18; Isa. 53:4, 5; Matt. 8:17; 1 Peter 2:24).

Sanctification

Sanctification -Which is living a life of Holiness.

The Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord. We believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing until the consummation of salvation at Christ’s return. (Heb. 12:14; 1 Thess. 5:23; 2 Peter 3:18; 2 Cor. 3:18; Phil. 3:12–14; 1 Cor. 1:30)

Baptism in Water

Baptism in Water – Which is by Immersion.

The ordinance is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12; Acts 8:36–39).

Our Leadership

Our Mission

Col. 1:28-29NLT, Eph. 4:11-12 NLT

Our vision

To reconcile the lost to Christ and to encourage the flock to stay steadfast in the Lord.

Col. 1:19-22 (NLT)
