  • Biblical Authority

    THE BIBLE, BOTH THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS, IS THE INSPIRED, INFALLIBLE WORD OF GOD; IT SERVES AS THE HIGHEST AND FINAL COURT OF AUTHORITY FOR FAITH, WORSHIP AND CONDUCT. (2 TIMOTHY 3:15-17, 1 THESSALONIANS 2:13, 2 PETER 1:21)

  • One True God

    THERE IS ONE ETERNAL SELF-EXISTING GOD; THE CREATOR WHO IS REVEALED IN THREE PERSONS: FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT. (MATTHEW 28:19, 2 CORINTHIANS 13:14, JOHN 14:16-17)

  • The Deity of Jesus

    THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS THE ETERNAL SON OF GOD. HE:

    • Was born of a virgin (Matt 1:23)
    • Lived a sinless life (Hebrews 7:26)
    • Performed miracles (Acts 2:22)
    • Died on the cross in our place for our sins (1 John 2:2)
    • Was bodily resurrected from the dead (1 Cor 15:4)
    • Is now exalted to the right hand of the Father (Hebrews 1:3)
    • Will return to judge the living and the dead (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, 2 Tim 4:1)

  • Sin and Salvation

    ALL PEOPLE:

    • Have a sin nature (Romans 5:12-19)
    • Have sinned and fall short of God’s glory (Romans 3:23)
    • Deserve to be punished by both physical and spiritual death (Romans 6:23)

    OUR ONLY HOPE FOR SALVATION FROM THE PENALTY FOR OUR SIN IS THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST SHED ON THE CROSS. (ROMANS 6:23, ROMANS 5:8, 1 PETER 1:19)


    WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE THOUGH FAITH BY TRUSTING IN JESUS TO BE THE FORGIVER OF OUR SINS AND THE LEADER OF OUR LIVES. (JOHN 3:3, ROMANS 10:9, EPHESIANS 2:8)

  • Holy Spirit

    THE HOLY SPIRIT’S WORK IN THE LIFE OF THE BELIEVER INCLUDES:

    • Regeneration (John 3:5-7)
    • Indwelling (1 Corinthians 3:16, John 20:22)
    • Leading into all truth (John 16:13)
    • Marked/Sealed/Stamped (2 Corinthians 2:22)

    AVAILABLE TO THE BELIEVER IS THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT WHICH IS THE EMPOWERMENT TO BE CHRIST’S WITNESSES ON THE EARTH UNTIL HE RETURNS. (ACTS 1:4-8, ACTS 2:4)


    ALL OF THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT ARE AVAILABLE TO THE BELIEVER AND TO THE CHURCH FOR THE EDIFICATION OF THE CHURCH AND FOR THE EQUIPPING OF THE BELIEVERS FOR THE WORK OF THE MINISTRY. (ROMANS 12:3-7, 1 CORINTHIANS 12:4-11)

  • End Times

    WE NOW LIVE IN THE LAST DAYS (THE CHURCH AGE) DURING WHICH THE CHURCH IS ORDAINED BY GOD TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE WORLD AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF EVERY NATION. (MARK 16:15, MATTHEW 28:18-19, ACTS 1:8).


    THE LAST DAYS WILL CULMINATE IN THE END OF THE AGE INCLUDING:


    THE IMMINENT RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH (1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-17, TITUS 2:13) THE VISIBLE RETURN OF CHRIST WITH HIS SAINTS TO RULE AND REIGN ON THE EARTH FOR 1,000 YEARS (REVELATION 19:11-14, REVELATION 20:1-6, ZECHARIAH 14:5) THE FINAL JUDGMENT (REVELATION 20:11-15, REVELATION 21:8) THE NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH (2 PETER 3:13, REVELATION 21, REVELATION 22)
