1.
We believe
the
Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible,
authoritative, inerrant Word of God. (2 Tim.
3:15, 2 Peter 1:21)
2.
We believe
there is only one God, eternally existent in
three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
(Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30)
3.
We believe
in the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin
birth (Is. 7:14, Mt.1:23, Luke 1:35); His
sinless life (Heb. 4:15, 7:26); His miracles
(John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death (I
Cor. 15:3, Eph. 1:7; Heb. 2:9); His resurrection
(John 11:25, I Cor 15:4); His ascension to the
right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); His
personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11,
Rev. 19:11).
4.
We believe
in the
absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy
Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding
sinfulness of human nature; and that men are
justified on the single ground of faith in the
shed blood of Christ and that only by God’s
grace and through faith alone we are saved (John
3:16-19, Romans 3:23, 5:8-9, Eph. 2:8-10, Titus
3:5).
5. We believe
in the
resurrection of both the saved and the lost;
they that are saved unto the resurrection of
life, and they that are lost unto the
resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
6.
We believe
in the
spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus
Christ (Rom. 8:9, I Cor. 12:12-13, Gal.
3:26-28)
7. We believe
in the
present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose
indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a
godly life (Rom. 8:13-14, I Cor. 3:16, 6:19-20,
Eph. 4:30, 5:18). |
