Statement of Faith
1. We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired of God and that they
are the supreme and final authority for faith and practice. We accept the Authorized King James Version to
be the Word of God, without error.
2. We believe in a triune God, Who Is-
God The Father, Creator of Heaven and earth, perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom, rich in grace,
supreme in love, and measureless in power. He hears and answers prayer. He saves from sin and
death, all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
God The Son, Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son and born of the virgin Mary. He is the only
atonement for the sin of this world by the shedding of his blood on the cross. We believe that he
arose bodily, ascended into Heaven and is seated at the Father's right hand as our High Priest and
Only Mediator. We look forward for His personal premillennial, imminent return.
God The Holy Spirit, A Person who is co-equal with the Father and the Son. He is sent from God to
reprove the world of sin and to regenerate all who receive Christ as personal Savior.
3. We believe that man was created in the image of God but because of Adam's transgression, the whole
human race fell. All men everywhere are sinners, both by nature and by choice.
4. We believe in a personal devil who was cast out of Heaven and is now the prince of the air. He is the
archenemy of God. He has already been judged and someday will be cast into the lake of fire to be
tormented day and night, forever and forever.
5. We believe that salvation is by grace, through the merits of the blood of the Son of God. which was shed
for the sins of all mankind, not merely for a selected few. When one obtains salvation, he is eternally
secure.
6. We believe that Heaven and Hell are literal places, prepared of God as the only eternal abode. All those
who have been saved shall live eternally with God. All those without Christ shall abide in the lake of fire
forever, eternally separated from God.
7. We believe the church consists of regenerated believers who have been scripturally baptized and are
banded together for worship, spiritual fellowship and the work of spreading the gospel to the ends of the
earth. Baptism and the Lord's Supper are the only church ordinances.
8. We believe in Bible separation, that is to be set apart from the world, sin, self, and Satan, and to be
separated "unto the praise of His glory" and the furtherance of the Gospel.
9. We believe that all believers are to be witnesses unto the lost for Christ. We believe that all believers
have certain God-given gifts and talents and are stewards for God. Some are called to preach or to other
special ministries. We also believe that all who have rejected the Gospel or who have never heard the
Gospel are lost and that it is every believer's responsibility to help get the Gospel to everyone.
10. We believe in the Premillennial Second Coming of Christ, in the bodily resurrection of the righteous
dead at His coming, an endless joy in Heaven for all the redeemed, and endless punishment in Hell for all
the lost
