- We believe in the Divine Trinity, that God is One, but manifested in three Persons -
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and that they are co-equal and co-eternal.
- We believe that the Bible in its entirety is the infallible, inherent Word of God, and an
irrefutable standard for conduct of living and of faith toward God.
- We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- We believe that Jesus was God manifested in the flesh, was conceived of the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.
- We believe that Jesus Christ was crucified, buried, and resurrected from the dead and is
now seated at the right hand of the Father God in heaven.
- We believe that salvation is a gift of God to all men, separate from works and the Law,
and is made operable in each individual life by grace through faith in Jesus Christ,
producing works acceptable to God.
- We believe that water baptism by immersion is the New Testament pattern and is a
direct commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that this ordinance is for believers
only as a symbol of the Christian's identification with Christ in His death, burial, and
resurrection.
- We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift from God as promised by the Lord
Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the New
Birth, and that this experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in
other tongues as the Holy Spirit gives utterance.
- We believe that healing is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privilege of
every member in the Church today.
- We believe Divine 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.
- We believe in the operation of all nine gifts of the Holy Spirit referred to in 1 Corinthians
12:1-11 and that they are pertinent for today, manifesting as the Holy Spirit wills.
- We believe that the Lord Jesus will return for His Church and that His coming is imminent.
- We believe that those who physically die in their sins without accepting Jesus Christ as
their personal Lord and Savior are hopelessly and eternally lost in the Lake of Fire and
therefore have no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting.
- We believe that the Lake of Fire is literal, and the terms "eternal" and "everlasting" used
in describing the duration of the punishment of the dammed 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.
