​

1. We hold to the highest view of, and respect for, the Holy Scriptures. We believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God and that it leads to obedience to Jesus. We hold that its interpretation and application must be consistent with the words, Spirit and intent of Christ. (John 16:13; 2 Timothy 3:15–17; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Thessalonians 2:13)

2. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10–11; Matthew 28:18; Luke 3:22; John 14:16).

3. We affirm the full deity and the full humanity of Jesus Christ. We believe that God sent His Only Son, Jesus, to die on the Cross for our sins so that we would not have to be eternally separated from Him. We reject the teaching that there is salvation outside of Christ. We declare the message of the Gospel plainly and openly, by word and by deed, believing that every person must confess Jesus as Lord in order to receive God's free gift of Eternal Life.  (John 1:1, 14; 20:28-29; Philippians 2:6–11; Isaiah 9:6; Colossians 2:9)

4. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit which includes: the baptism in the Holy Spirit as an experience distinct from regeneration; his indwelling, by which the Christian is enabled to live a godly life; his supernatural gifting and empowering of the church for its work, life, and worship (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4–8, 2:1–4, 10:44–46; 1 Corinthians 12, 14).

5. We endeavor faithfully and radically to follow Jesus in the present day, seeking to fulfill the Great Commission and to provide an authentic, biblical, credible witness to all those to whom He leads us.

6. We encourage men, as well as women, to use the gifts God has given to them to edify the Body and bless the Church.

7. We believe in a lifestyle and practice of ethical conduct and integrity consistent with the character of Jesus Christ and biblical standards (Romans 12:1–2; 1 Corinthians 6:9–10; Galatians 5:19–21; Ephesians 4:13–32; 1 Timothy 3:1-13).

8. We affirm the Ministry Gifts God gives for the building up of the Kingdom of God, and we believe that these Gifts are operative until the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.

9. We support local as well as world evangelization, both through our going as well as our giving.

10. We believe that the baptism of believers with water is a pledge of their covenant with God. It identifies them with the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. It is a sign of their cleansing and freedom from sin, and their commitment to follow Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit.

11. We believe that through the Lord's Supper, the Church renews its covenant with God and with each other, and participates in the life and death of Jesus Christ until He comes.

12. We place our hope in the reign of God and its fulfillment in the day when Christ will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead; the unsaved to be sent into everlasting punishment of hell fire and the saved into eternal bliss with Christ. We await God's final victory, the end of this present age of struggle, the resurrection of the dead, and a new heaven and a new earth (John 5:28–29; Mark 14:62; 2 Thessalonians 1:2–10; Revelation 1:5–7; 20:4–5, 11–12).
