our beliefs
HUMAN BEINGS We believe that all MEN, by nature and choice, are sinful and lost; that man is the direct creation of God, made in His image and likeness. (Gen. 1:26-27; Romans 5:12)
SALVATION We believe SALVATION is by grace through faith and is a free gift of God, neither merited nor secured by any virtue or work of man; received only by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. (Eph. 2:8-9)
CHRISTIAN WALK We believe in the importance of personal dedication to the Lord and a separated walk before the eyes of an unbelieving world. (II Cor. 5:17)
GOD We believe in the one true God who is the first person of the Trinity; perfect, infinite, and eternal. He is revealed to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Deut. 6:4; I John 5:7; Rev. 4:11)
JESUS CHRIST We believe that Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity, the eternal Word, and the only begotten Son. He became man by the miracle of the virgin birth; true God and true Man. (John 1:1-2; 14; Luke 1:35)
HOLY SPIRIT We believe that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity and that He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. (John 16:8-11)
BIBLE We believe that the Bible is the inspired Word of God in all parts and wholly without error. (I Tim. 3:16)
MANKIND We believe that all men, by nature and choice, are sinful and lost; that man is the direct creation of God, made in His image and likeness. (Gen. 1:26-27; Romans 5:12)
SALVATION We believe salvation is by grace through faith and is a free gift of God, neither merited nor secured by any virtue or work of man; received only by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. (Eph. 2:8-9)
CHRISTIAN WALK We believe in the importance of personal dedication to the Lord and a separated walk before the eyes of an unbelieving world. (II Cor. 5:17)
SECOND COMING OF CHRIST We believe in that “blessed hope,” the personal, imminent, pre-tribulation and premillennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ for His redeemed ones. (I Thess. 4:13-18)
The Gospel
WE ARE SINNERS.
“For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23)
“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.” (Romans 3:10)
THERE IS A PENALTY FOR SIN.
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23)
CHRIST PAID THE PENALTY.
“But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
YOU MUST ACCEPT THIS SALVATION.
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” (Romans 10:9-10)
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)
