We believe that the Bible is divinely inspired, completely trustworthy in its entirety, and that it is the only full, final, complete and infallible revelation of God from God to man. It is a complete rule of faith and conduct. Hence, we recognize no other authority above the Bible. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

We believe in One God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 3:16-17)

We believe in God the Father, creator of the universe, perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom, measureless in power. We rejoice that He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of men, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ. (Genesis 1:1, 2 Timothy 1:9)

We believe in Jesus Christ, the eternal and only-begotten Son of God, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, sinless in His life, making atonement for the sins of the world by His death, by Whom we are saved. We believe in His bodily resurrection, His ascension into heaven, and His pre-millennial visible return to the world according to His promise. (John 1:1-3, Matthew 1:20, Hebrews 4:15, 2 Corinthians 5:17-21, Luke 24:39, Acts 1:9-11, 1 Thessalonians 4:17)

We believe in the Holy Spirit, Who came forth from God to convince the world of sin, of righteousness of judgment, and to regenerate, sanctify and comfort those who believe in Jesus Christ. (John 16:7-14, Romans 8:9, 8:14-16)

We believe that all men by nature and by choice are sinners, but that “God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

We believe, therefore, those who accept Christ as Lord and Savior will rejoice forever in God’s presence, and those who refuse to accept Christ as Lord and Savior will be forever separated from God. (Ephesians 2:2-3, Romans 3:23, John 3:3, John 5:24, 1 John 5:12, Revelation 20:12-15)

We believe in the Church – a living spiritual body of which Christ is the Head and of which all regenerated people are members. (Ephesians 1:17-2:1)

We believe that a local church is a company of believers in Jesus Christ, associated for worship, work, fellowship and the persuasion of the unsaved to accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. We believe that the inevitable by-products of this fellowship are human betterment and social improvements. We believe that the Scriptural order for church membership is always: (1) salvation, publicly confessed, (2) baptism, (3) church membership. This doctrine is known as “regenerate church membership.” (Acts 2:37-47)

We believe that the Bible teaches the observance of only two ordinances: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Therefore, this church is committed to the observance of these ordinances only. (Matthew 28:19, 1Corinthians 11:26)

We believe that the only Biblical mode of baptism is by immersion. Baptism is the outward sign of an inner experience, and thus symbolizes the believer’s death to sin, burial of the old life, and resurrection to newness of life in Christ. Baptism does not save and should only follow belief in Jesus Christ as personal Savior. Therefore, we do not believe in infant baptism. (Romans 6:3-6)

We believe that the Lord’s Supper, or Communion, is and ordinance symbolizing the giving of the body and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ for our sins. It is observed in remembrances of the atoning work of Christ, and is a means for communing with Christ. It is to be received only by believers who are living in obedience to the Lord, according to their own consciences. (1 Corinthians 11:23-29)

We believe that every human being is responsible to God alone in matters of faith. We believe that every believer in the finished atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ has the right to direct access to God, and that no priest, church, nor decree can come between the believing soul and his Lord. (Romans 14:12, 1 Timothy 2:5, Hebrews 4:14-16)

We believe that the local church is a self-governing AUTONOMOUS unit. Christ alone is the head of the church. Each local church is the seat of final authority, which is vested in the body of believers who compose it, and thus the necessity for any higher body to exercise authority or to legislate is eliminated. While this principle of autonomy is insisted upon, we realize the value of fellowship with believers of like faith. Association or affiliation with others must remain on a voluntary basis, but on such basis we may form local, area, state, or national associations as long as such associations have no judicial authority over the local congregation.

We believe, therefore, that each church is independent and must be free from interference by any ecclesiastical or political authority; that, therefore, Church and State must be kept separate as having different functions, each fulfilling its duties free from the dictation or patronage of the other.

We believe that God created mankind as male and female for the purpose of a heterosexual relationship within the confines of marriage. We further believe that marriage is a God ordained and biblically based union between one man and one woman. (Genesis 2:18-24, Matthew 19:4-6, Mark 10:6-9)
