STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of the heavens and the earth,
and ruler of all. We believe in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God,
conceived by the Holy Ghost and born of the Virgin Mary. We believe that He
lived upon the earth and suffered stripes under Pontius Pilate for our healing.

 

We believe Jesus was crucified, died, and was buried; and rose again the
third day from the dead, ascended into the heavens, and is now sitting at the
right hand of God the Father Almighty. We believe in the Holy Ghost Spirit that
was given at Pentecost as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ as evidenced
by miracles, signs, and wonders.

 

We believe on the Holy Word of God that
gives the highest hope for this world and the world to come. We believe the
Bible is the inspired Word of God. We believe in the hereafter for all people.
We believe in the ultimate triumph of righteousness, the resurrection from
the dead, and life everlasting for the faithful. We believe in being born again
by God's Spirit and regeneration into a new life. We believe in the forgiveness
of sins, sanctification, and baptism of the Holy Ghost. We stand against that
which is evil in the sight of the Lord.

 

We stand against drunkenness, brawling, and riotous living. We believe the basic

plan of God for man toward others is the Golden Rule:

"Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that
men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the
prophets." We believe and adhere to the Ten Commandments as given to Moses.

 

We believe in God Eternal, Infinite, and Unchangeable. We believe both
the Old and New Testaments to be the Word of God. We believe that the
eternal purpose of God is in all things to them that love Him. We believe that
God created the heavens and the earth by his own will. We believe that
salvation is for all that believe on the Name of Jesus. We believe election,
ordination, and predestination to be God's Word.

 

We believe that the Lord
Jesus Christ is the only redeemer able to forgive sin. We believe in the Holy
Ghost and its abode in the hearts of the redeemed. We believe in the
justification as given by faith, as received by one accepting Jesus Christ as
his personal savior. We believe in all spiritual life imparted by the Holy Ghost,
thus helping one to live Christ-like. We acknowledge the church to be the
Bride of Christ, all born-again and baptized believers.

 

We believe in the sacraments: baptism, feet washing, and the Lord's supper.

We believe in two states of future existence: heaven, the final home of the redeemed; and hell,
the final abode of the sinful.

 

We believe that the Lord adds to the Church
daily such as should be saved. We believe in the different ministries or gifts
of the Spirit: Word of Knowledge, Word of Wisdom, Faith, Healing, Miracles,
Prophecy, Discernment, Tongues, and Interpretation of Tongues.

 

We ordain and license God-called Christians. We believe that as one accepts Jesus
Christ, he should join himself with the baptized believers and walk in newness of life.
