Our Beliefs

We believe the Holy Bible, consisting of the thirty-nine Old and twenty-seven New Testament canonical books. Only within the original manuscripts is the verbal, plenary, inerrant, and infallible Word of God, entirely without error or contradiction in all matters of which it stands.

2 Timothy 3:16, 1 Peter 1:24-25, 2 Peter 1:21

We believe in one “triune” God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They are equal in essence and attribute, yet distinct in office and activity.

Deuteronomy 6:4, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14

We believe that man is totally depraved: that the only way to be saved is by the grace through faith in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. We believe in the eternal security of the believers.

Ephesians 2:1-3, 8-9, Romans 3:10&23, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, John 10:28

We believe the church, which is the Body of Christ began on the day of Pentecost and has two divine institutions: The Lords Supper as a memorial, and Baptism by immersion.

Acts 2:1, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, 12:12 -18, Matthew 28:19-20

We believe that Satan is a person, the author of the fall, and that he has been defeated on the cross and shall be eternally punished.

Job 17, Genesis 3:1-19, Hebrews 2:14, Revelation 20:10

We believe that Christ may at any moment return in the air to rapture the saints and that a tribulation period of seven years will follow after which Christ will come to Earth with his saints to rule for a thousand years. After His millennial rule, the wicked will be judged and cast into the Lake of Fire. We believe in the eternal, conscious punishment of the lost, and the eternal joy of the saints.

1 Corinthians 15:51-57, 1 Thessalonians 4:13 -18, Revelation 19:11 & 20:10-15
