What We Believe

We believe in the virgin birth, the sinless life, the atoning death, the glorious resurrection, and the pre-millennial return of Jesus Christ to this earth.

We believe that He purchased for us our finished salvation, and it is by grace through faith.

We believe the life that He gives is eternal and everlasting, and that we are sealed by the Holy Spirit and kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation, ready to be revealed in the last day.

We believe that repentance and faith are the two steps into the ark of safety and both are essential. We believe the repentance and faith that brings salvation makes a new creature in Christ Jesus and gives a perpetual hatred for sin and stops sin as the habit of life.

We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts, converts and continues the work of grace and gives us love, joy, peace, and makes soul winners out of us.

We believe that baptism by immersion, which symbolizes death, burial, and resurrection, is the proper method of baptism. First of all, we believe that we are all baptized by one Spirit unto Christ.

We believe in the local church and pastor; and we believe that Christ is the head of the Church, the Bible the Rule Book, and the Holy Spirit the Administrator. We believe that the under-shepherd is to rule the church, according to Hebrews 13, even as the Lord rules him.

We believe in complete separation of the church and state, and that the state has no right to formulate rules or regulations for the church. To do so is to disrespect the Head of the church, the Lord Jesus Christ.

We believe that heaven is the home for God and His children, and we must be born into His family through the new birth.

We believe that hell is the home for the devil and his children.

We believe in separation from the world to God, dedication, and consecration in our personal lives and dress.

We believe the husband and father ought to be the head of the home and demand discipline on the part of the children.

We believe that the Bible is the God-ordained Book for faith and practice, and is the only safe rule for faith and practice. We recommend that it be memorized by the chapter and read completely through once each year
