Statement of Faith

"And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD of God." (Lk 4:4)

The Word of God -- The Holy Bible is the Word of God, also known as the Scriptures, or the Word of Truth. All Scripture, even every Word of God is given by the inspiration of God, written by holy men of God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. It is God's Truth for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in the righteousness of God. We should study the Word of God diligently, showing ourselves approved unto God, and learning how to live by every Word of God. (2Tim 3:16; 1Th 2:13; 2Pet 1:21; Lk 4:4; 2Tim 2:15)
 
Salvation and Everlasting Life -- All men are sinners and stand in need of God's salvation, even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe. Salvation is God's plan so that men can be saved, and whosoever believeth in God's only begotton Son Jesus Christ shall not perish, but shall have everlasting life. There is no other name (only Jesus) under heaven whereby we must be saved, even born again as Jesus taught. It is by God's grace through faith that we are saved, and it is the gift of God, and not of our own works, lest any man should boast.  (Rom 3:22-24; Jn 3:3-7,16; Acts 4:12; Jn 3:3-7; 1Pet 1:23; Eph 2:8-9)
 
The Doctrine of the Trinity  -- There is one God and Lord, manifested in three distinct persons, the Heavenly Father, the Son of God (the Word made flesh), and the Holy Spirit. They are each uniquely God and at the same time they are one. (Phil 2:6; 1Jn 5:7; Jn 1:1,14; Mt 28:19; Eph 4:5-6; Acts 5:3-4)
 
Water Baptism  -- Water baptism is a direct command of the Lord Jesus Christ. Believers in Jesus Christ as the Son of God should be baptized by immersion in the name of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Mt 28:19; Rom 6:4-5; Col 2:12; Acts 8:36-38)
 
Abundant Life -- Jesus came so that we could have His good life, even life more abundantly. Jesus is the Good Shepherd, and we believe in His goodness and mercy as God's will for all believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think of. He works all things together for good to them that love God, who are called to His purpose. We believe God wants you to have good success in your life.  (Jn 10:10-11; Ps 23:1-6; Eph 3:20; Rom 8:28; Josh 1:8)
 
Faith in the Power of God -- We believe our faith should stand in the power of God, and that we should fully preach the Gospel, believing that Jesus' miracles, signs, wonders, healing power, and gifts of the Holy Spirit are for today, because Jesus Christ is the same today as He was yesterday, and will be forever.  (1Cor 2:5; Rom 15:19; Heb 13:8; Mk 16:15-20; Jn 14:12-14; Mk 11:24; Mt 8:13-17; 1Cor 12:1,4-11)
