- We believe the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and that it is the record of God’s revelation of Himself to man, and that it is without error.
- We believe in the only true God, and that he exists in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.
- We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son, His virgin birth, sinless life, sacrificial atoning death for our sins, His bodily resurrection, and His personal, literal, imminent return.
- We believe that God created the heavens and the earth, including all life, by direct act, not by the process of evolution.
- We believe that hell is a real place and that Satan is a real person.
- We believe that heaven is a real place and that one must receive Jesus Christ as personal Savior in order to go there.
- We believe that man in his natural state can in no way save himself no matter how good his intentions. God, however, has provided a way for all people to be saved by grace through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ, and that it is a free gift of God.
- We believe in righteous living and good works, not as the means of salvation, but as its evidence and fruit.
- We believe in the autonomy of the local church and practice the ordinances of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper.
- We believe in giving our tithes and offerings to and through the local church to support local and world evangelism.
- We believe evangelism is the responsibility and privilege of every member of the local church.
