We believe and teach: a. The Bible is Inspired. The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative written Word of God. b. One True God. There is only one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. c. The Lord Jesus Christ is Fully God. The deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, His personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand years. d. The Fall of Mankind. Mankind was created good and upright, however, mankind ignored God’s instructions…choosing to engage in what they knew was wrong and evil. e. The Salvation of Mankind. Salvation is deliverance from spiritual death and enslavement by sin. God provides salvation for all who believe and accept His free offer of forgiveness. The only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Jesus. f. The Ordinances of the Church. (1) Baptism in water symbolically declares to everyone that the old sinful life style of the believer died with Christ and has been raised anew in Christ. (2) The Lord’s Supper, or Communion, consisting of bread and the fruit of the vine (grape juice), is a memorial of Christ’s suffering and death. The eating and drinking of these symbols express the believer’s awareness that he has been made right with God and shares the divine nature of eternal life through Jesus Christ. g. The Baptism in the Holy Spirit. It is given to believers who ask for it. The Holy Spirit provides the power for victorious Christian living and productive service through specific spiritual gifts. h. The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit. The gift of tongues (unlearned language) is spoken as the Spirit of God gives audible expression (Acts 2:4). i. Sanctification. The act of separating ourselves from evil and identifying with things that are good, upright, and morally pure. j. The Church and Its Mission. The church is a body of believers with Christ as the Head. As His church, our mission is to fulfill God’s purpose concerning mankind. k. The Ministry. A divine call to ministry is ordained through Scripture. This is provided by the Lord for the purpose of leading the church in evangelization of the world, worship of God, and building a body of believers conforming
