.::What
We Believe::.
We believe the whole Bible from Genesis
1:1 to Revelation 22:21 as the verbally
inspired and infallible Word of God.
We believe Jesus Christ was born of the
virgin Mary and is the Son of God and God
the Son.
We believe that Christ died for our sins
according to the Scriptures, the just for
the unjust, that He might bring us to God.
We believe that Christ rose from the grave
the third day according to the Scriptures.
We believe that Jesus Christ is our great
High Priest, and we need no other to
intercede
for us.
We believe that Christ will come again in
Person, bodily and visibly, to establish His
kingdom on earth.
We believe that in order to be saved the
soul must be born again - ye must be born
again. John 3:7.
We believe that every truly born again
soul should declare his faith by the act of
baptism (immersion in water) showing forth
the Lord's death, burial, and resurrection.
We believe that Christ keeps those who are
truly born again (II Timothy 1:12; John
10:28).
We believe that all Christians are called
unto a life of separation from worldly and
sinful practices and to a life of usefulness
for Christ. (II Corinthians 6:17; II Peter
1:2-9).
We believe that the local church is a body
of baptized believers whose only mission is,
not to reform the world, but to preach and
teach the Gospel of Salvation to the
individual soul.
We believe that at Christ's coming in the
air the bodies of the dead in Christ shall
be raised incorruptible and reunited with
soul and spirit; the bodies of Christians
who are alive shall be changed and glorified
and, without dying, shall be caught up to be
with the Lord (I Thessalonians 4:13-17; I
Corinthians 15:51-53). The saved will then
appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ
and be rewarded for their works (II
Corinthians 5:10; I Corinthians 3:11-15).
After these things, Christ will return
bodily and visibly to the earth with His
saints, and shall rule the world in
righteousness for a thousand years. At the
end of this, the unsaved dead will be
resurrected, and their judgment and
condemnation shall take place (Matthew
24:30-31; Revelation 19:11-16; Revelation
20:5-6, 11,15).
