What We Believe:
The Godhead
God the Father. We believe The Lord our God is one God reveal in three persons-The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God is self-existent, eternal, unchanging, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, holy, righteous, and loving. God created the universe from nothing and He rules His creation sovereignty, including both human and angelic beings. Genesis 1:1, 26, 27; Psalm 90:2; Mt. 28:19; 1 Pet. 1:2; 2 Cor. 13:14
The Bible
The Holy Bible, comprised of the Old and New Testament Scriptures is God’s inspired Word, inerrant and infallible, by the Holy Spirit in His exercising of divine influence over man of God, whereby they wrote the precise words that God intended. The Holy Bible is God’s complete revelation to man and therefore the final and supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Pet. 1:20, 21; 2 Timothy 1:13; Psalm 119:105,160; Proverbs 30:5)
Jesus
God The Spirit
We believe the Holy Spirit is equal to the Father and the Son as God and is the continued presence of God on earth. He convicts the world of guilt in regard to sin, righteousness, and judgment in order to lead the unbeliever to salvation and the believer to a transformed life that exhibits the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22). He indwells believers as a guarantee of the inheritance to come and guides them in understanding truth. The Christian desires to live under His control daily. 2 Cor. 3:17; Jn.16:7-13, 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; 1 Cor. 2:12, 3:16; Eph. 5:1; Gal. 5:25.
Creation
We believe God, by speaking, created the entire universe out of nothing in six days. People were created to glorify God and live in a relationship with Him. Each person is God;s unique workmanship. All three members of the Godhead had a part in creation. (Gen. 1:2; Ps. 33:6-9; Jn. 1:1-3; Col. 1:16). Creation, in the beginning, was perfect, sinless, and entirely good (Gen. 1:4, 31).
Sin
We believe that sin is an act of man that fails to conform to God’s holy character. By the disobedience of Adam as mankind’s representative, sin entered the race, and the earth was cursed. Thus, all men are born as sinners. Sin deserves death, which is spiritual death, physical death, and eternal death in the lake of fire. Mankind’s sin also demands separation from God. Only the saving grace of Jesus Christ can forgive mankind of his death-deserving sin. (Rom. 3:23, 5:12-21, 7:18, 23, 6:23; 1 Cor.15:21, 22; 1 Jn. 3:4; 5:17; Heb. 11:6, 9:27; Gen. 2:17, 3:8; rev. 20:5-11).
Salvation
Salvation is only available through Christ’s atonement and is guaranteed to the righteous in God’s justice. Anyone who has ever sinned must pay the penalty for his own sin by eternal separation from God. Since it is impossible for people to restore their relationship with God on their own, Jesus came to do for us what we could not do for ourselves: live a completely righteous life and die to pay the penalty of sins for others. By God’s grace, the righteousness of Jesus is credited to those who trust in His atoning sacrifice on the cross on their behalf by accepting His death as a substitute for their own thereby making them righteous in God’s sight. (Rom.6:23, 5:1; Eph. 2:8, 9; Jn. 14:6, 1:12; Tit. 3:5; Gal. 3:26).
Church
The Church is the body of Christ and is comprised of people who have accepted God’s free gift of salvation. The purpose of the church is to encourage others to join them in glorifying God by following Jesus and being transform by the Holy Spirit. To accomplish this, people are to use their spiritual gifts, talents, and abilities in ministering according to the purpose of God’s design so that hose who follow Him may increase in number and maturity as well as together await His return.
Ordinances of the Church
We believe that the Church today must practice two ordinances of believer’s baptism and the Lord’s supper. Baptism is symbol of believer’s union with Christ’s death, burial and resurrection, and a public testimony of his or her faith in Christ. The Bible lead us to practice the mode of baptism as immersion. Christ also instituted the ordinance of the Lord’s supper, which is regularly celebrated by the Church in order to remember Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf and soon return to earth. The elements of the Lord’s supper are symbolic of Christ’s body and blood (Rom. 6:3-5; 1 Cor. 12:13; Col. 2:12; Acts 2:14, 8:12; Mt. 26:26-28; Mk. 14:22-24, 1:5; Lk. 22:19-20).
Second Coming and Judgment
God’s redemptive purpose will be consummated by the return of Christ to raise the dead, judge all humanity, and establish His kingdom. Those who have received the free gift of salvation will be raised bodily from the dead or (snatched up from their earthly lives) to meet Christ at His second coming and their earthly bodies will be transformed into eternal bodies. They will live forever in the fellowship and kingdom of God in a new heaven and a new earth. But, eternal conscious punishment, separation from the fellowship and kingdom of God (hell), is the ultimate destiny of unredeemed humanity, Satan, and his entire angelic host of demons.
