We Believe

The Bible

We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be the verbally and plenary inspired Word of God. The Scriptures are inerrant, infallible and God ­breathed and, therefore, are the final authority for faith and life. The sixty­six books of the Old and New Testament are the complete and divine revelation of God to Man. The Scriptures shall be interpreted according to their normal grammatical ­historical meaning, and all issues of interpretation and meaning shall be determined by the pastor. The King James Version of the Bible shall be the official and only translation used by the church. (2 Tim. 3:16­-17; 2 Pet. 1:20­21)

The Triune God

We believe in one triune God, eternally existing in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—each co­eternal in being, co­identical in nature, coequal in power and glory, and having the same attributes and perfections. (Deut. 6:4; Matt. 28:19; 2 Cor. 13:14; John 14:10, 26)

The Natural Condition of Man

We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God; but that in Adam’s sin the human race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God. Man is totally depraved and, of himself, utterly unable to remedy his lost condition. (Gen. 1:26­-27; Rom. 3:22­-23; 5:12; 6:23; Eph. 2:1­3; 4:17-­19)

Salvation

We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, Whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins. We believe that all sins, except blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, are forgivable. (John 1:12; Eph. 1:7; 2:8­-10; 1 Pet. 1:18­-19; Matt. 12:31­-32; 1 John 1:9)

Eternal Blessedness of the Redeemed 

We believe that all the redeemed, once saved, are kept by God’s power and are thus secure in Christ forever. (John 6:37­40; 10:27­30; Rom. 8:1; 38-­39; 1 Cor. 1:4­8; 1 Pet. 1:4­5)

Eternal State of the Lost

We believe that the souls of unbelievers remain, after death, in conscious punishment and torment until the second resurrection, when with soul and body reunited, they shall appear at the Great White Throne Judgment, and shall be cast into the Lake of Fire, not to be annihilated, but to suffer everlasting conscious punishment and torment. (Matt. 25:41­46; Mark 9:43­48; Luke 16:19­26; 2 Thess. 1:7­9; Jude 6­7; Rev. 20:11­15)
