THE BIBLE

We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of all the Scripture, comprised of 39 Books of the Old Testament and 27 Books of the New Testament in the originals, and that they are the final authority in faith and life. (2 Samuel 23:2; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20, 21)

GOD

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19)

THE PERSON OF JESUS

We believe in the virgin birth of Christ, and that He is true God and true man. (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:20–23; John 1:1, 2, 14)

THE WORK OF JESUS

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that, with His shed blood, He obtained for us an eternal redemption. (1 Corinthians 15:3; Hebrews 9:12)

THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS

We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His bodily ascension into heaven, and in His present life there as our High Priest and Advocate. (1 Corinthians 15:3, 4; Acts 1:9; Hebrews 4:14–16; 1 John 2:1)

THE RETURN OF JESUS

We believe in the personal, imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Thessalonians 4:15–17; 1 Corinthians 15:51–52)

THE SINFULNESS OF MAN

We believe in the total depravity of all mankind, and in the necessity of regeneration. (Romans 3:10–18; Romans 5:12; John 3:3)

SALVATION

We believe that Salvation is the free gift of God, entirely apart from works, and is possessed by all who have by faith received the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. (Ephesians 2:8, 9; Titus 3:5; Romans 3:28; Romans 10:9, 10; John 10:27, 28)

HOLY SPIRIT

We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine Person and that He indwells all believers. (Romans 8:11; 1 Corinthians 3:16)

PERSONAL ESCHATOLOGY

We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost. (John 5:24–29)
