We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible authoritative Word of God written in 66 books of both New and Old Testament. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. We believe that Man was created in the image of God and lived in innocence until he fell by voluntary transgression from his sinless state, the result being that all mankind are sinners. We believe that the sinner is saved wholly by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and the requisites to regeneration are repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ We believe that all who trust Jesus Christ for salvation are eternally secure in Him and shall not perish. We believe that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful men. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live the Godly life. We believe that The Church is Christ Body and is manifested through a local group of born again, baptized believers, united for His purpose, for the knowledge of Christ, and spread of the Word of God through worldwide missions. Each local church is an independent, self-governing body, and no other ecclesiastical body may exercise authority over it. We believe that there are two pictorial ordinances in the Lord's churches: Baptism and the Lord's Supper. We believe in the premillennial, personal, bodily return of Christ as the crowning event of the Gentile age. This event will include the resurrection of the righteous to eternal heaven, and the Millennium will be followed by the resurrection of the unrighteous unto eternal punishment in the lake of fire and that the righteous shall enter into the heaven age.
