† We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are inspired by God and inerrant in the original writings, and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life. 2 Tim 3:16; 2 Pet 1:21.† We believe in one God, the Creator, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Gen 1:1; Matt 28:19; John 10:30.
† We believe that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, that He is the only begotten Son of God, that He was born of the Virgin Mary, led a sinless life, and that He was and remains true God and true man. John 1:14; Matt 1:18-23; Col 2:9; Rev 22:13; Heb 4:15; John 3:16-18.
† We believe that God created Adam and Eve in the divine image; that they sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death which is separation from God; and that as a result of Adam’s sin, all human beings are now born with a sinful nature and being unable to save themselves from the natural consequences of this original sin, stand guilty before God. Gen 1:26-28; 2:7, 18-24; 1 Thess 5:23; Gen 3:1-24; 5:3; Mark 7:21-23; Rom 7:18-19; Rom 3:23.
† We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, as a representative and substitutionary sacrifice; and that all who believe in Him as Lord and Savior, are justified on the grounds of His blood, shed on the cross. 1 Pet 1:18-19; Rom 5:8-10, 5:18-19; 2 Cor 5:21; Heb 2:17; John 3:16-17; 1 John 2:2, 4:10; Phil 2:7-8.
† We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into Heaven, and in His present life there, at the right hand of God, as our High Priest and Advocate. Luke 24:36-43; John 20:25-28; Heb 4:14-15, 9:24; 1 John 2:1.
† We believe in the blessed hope of the personal and imminent return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Acts 1:11; Rev 1:7; Mark 13:33-37; Tit 2:11-13; Rev 22:20.
† We believe that all who by faith receive the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior are, through the grace of God, born again of the Holy Spirit and thereby become children of God. Rom 3:24, 6:23, 8:11, 8:14-16.
† We believe that the Holy Spirit indwells and gives spiritual life to all believers, enables them to understand Biblical truth, empowers them for godly living and equips them for service and witness. Matt 28:19; 2 Cor 13:14; John 16:13, 14:16,26; Rom 12:6-8; 1 Cor 12:8-11; Gal 5:22.
† We believe in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust, the everlasting blessedness of the saved, and the everlasting punishment of the lost. Tit 2:13-14; Rom 6:23; John 14:2-3, 3:16-18; 1 Thess 4:16-17; 1 Pet 1:3-4; Rev 20:12-15, 22:12-14.
