authoritative and sufficient rule for faith and practice. Therefore we affirm the following:
The Bible
- The Bible is the inspired, infallible, authoritative, and totally sufficient Word of God.
God
- There is only one God, Who eternally exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit.
Jesus Christ
- We affirm the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His
miracles, His vicarious and atoning death on the cross for sin, His bodily resurrection,
His ascension to the right hand of the Father and His physical return in power and
glory.
Salvation
- For the salvation of lost and sinful mankind, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is
absolutely essential.
Grace and Faith
- A person is justified--declared righteous before God--only by grace through faith in the
Lord Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit
- We affirm the ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to
live a godly life.
Resurrection
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: Those that are saved to
the resurrection of life and those that are lost to the resurrection of damnation.
The Church
- We affirm the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and His church.
