Our Faith
|
We believe in the Scripture of the Old and New Testament as verbally inspired of God as inerrant in the original writings. We believe in one God eternally existing in Three Persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, and was born of the virgin Mary, and is the true God and true man. We believe that man was created in the image of God, that he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death; that all human beings are born with a sinful nature
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, as representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood.
We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there as Mediator for us.
We believe in "that blessed hope," the personal, premillennial, and imminent return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
We believe in the personality of Satan who deceived the whole world. He is the god of this age.
We believe that all who receive Christ as Savior and confess Him before men are saved by the shedding of His blood. They are God's children, joint heirs with Christ and shall never perish.
We believe in Heaven and Hell; that Heaven is a place of pure delight and eternal joy for all those who have believed in the Lord Jesus Christ; that Hell is a place of eternal punishment for all the unsaved.
We believe that those gifts called "sign gifts" such as prophecy, tongues and healing have ceased to function upon the completion of the Canon and therefore should not be conjured up or exercised today. |
