STATEMENT OF FAITH
We believe in a triune God: The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Matt. 28:19; a Cor. 8:6; 2 Cor. 13:14; Gen 1:26; John 10:30; Matt. 3:16-17) Jesus Christ is true God and true man. ( Isa. 9:6; John 1:1,14; 1 Cor. 15:47; Titus 2:13) The Holy Spirit is a divine person (John 14:16,17,26; John 16:13,14) The Old and New Testaments are God's divinely inspired words. (2 Tim. 3:16; Matt. 24:35) All have sinned and come short of the glory of God and are in need of salvation. (Rom.3:23; Rom. 6:23) Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all people (John 3:3,16,17; Rom.10:9,10; John 14:6; 1 Tim. 2:5) Believers are to be baptized in water as an outward sign of their inward commitment to Jesus. (Matt.28:19; Acts10:48; Rom. 6:3-7) By confessing their sins to God, every believer will be forgiven and cleansed from all unrighteousness. (1John 1:9) It is the will of God that every believer be filled with the Holy Spirit and speak with new tongues. (Mark 16:17; Acts 2:4; 19:6; Eph. 5:18) Healing is provided in the redemptive work of Christ and is available to every believer. (Psalm 103:3; Isa. 53:4,5; Matt. 8:16,17; Psalm 107:20) Every believer is to grow up in the Lord through the study of the bible,prayer and renewing the mind. (Matt 26:41; Luke 18:1; Rom. 12:1,2; 2Tim. 2:15; 1; 1 Peter2:1-2) Every believer is to be planted in a local church. (Psalm 92:13; 1 Cor. 12:18) |
