We believe that there is one God, the Creator and Ruler of the universe. He is infinite, all-knowing, and perfect in all His attributes. He is one in essence while eternally existing in three Persons-the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit-each equally deserving worship and obedience.

We believe in the complete deity and humanity of Jesus Christ. He is 100% God and 100% man. He was born of a virgin and lived a sinless life. Because He was sinless, He was able to offer Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of His people. He was crucified and died. He arose bodily from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death, and to confirm that His sacrifice was sufficient to God as a substitution for the death otherwise required of every person for his or her sins.

We believe in the miracles of Jesus Christ, and in His ascension to the right hand of God the Father. We believe that He will return again to earth someday in power and glory to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

We believe that the Holy Spirit is co-equal with the Father and the Son. He is the divine helper, assistant, counselor, and instructor. He is present in the world to make men and women aware of their need for redemption from their sins through the atoning shed blood of Jesus Christ.

We believe that the Holy Spirit baptizes all believers into the Body of Christ at the moment of salvation. He also indwells, sanctifies, instructs, and empowers them for service, and seals them unto the day of redemption. We believe that the Holy Spirit gives to every believer one or more spiritual gifts. As Christians, we seek to live under His control daily.

We believe that all who put their faith in Jesus Christ are immediately placed by the Holy Spirit into the Church, of which Christ is the head. The formation of the Church began on the Day of Pentecost and will be completed at the coming of Christ for His own.

We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, written by men who were under the supernatural inspiration of the Holy Spirit. We believe that all Scripture is absolutely inerrant in its original writings. We believe that the Bible is God's progressive revelation of Himself to man.

We believe that the Bible stands alone as our guide to faith and practice and that it is absolutely sufficient for all that pertains to life and godliness.

We believe that the salvation of man, who is sinful and lost, is instantaneous and accomplished solely by the power of the Holy Spirit when the repentant sinner - enabled by the Holy Spirit - responds in faith. This salvation is wholly of God by grace through faith on the basis of the redeeming work of Jesus Christ, the merit of His shed blood, and not at all on the basis of human merit or works. All the redeemed are kept by God's power and are thus secure in Christ forever.

We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the unsaved; the saved unto the resurrection of eternal life and the unsaved unto the resurrection of eternal damnation.
