STATEMENT OF FAITH
Bible Final Authority
The Bible is the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God.
God the Father
God is a Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He is our Creator and the Creator of the entire universe. He is Almighty and all-knowing. He is a God of love, mercy, justice and holiness.
Jesus Christ
He is one with the Father and with the Holy Spirit, but for our redemption became Man. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He was without sin, both in nature and conduct. He died to save us, but arose from the dead and ascended to Heaven, where He is at the right hand of God, interceding for us. We look for His return in power and majesty to set up a Millennial Kingdom on earth. In the end, He will judge the world in righteousness.
The Holy Spirit
He is One with the Father and the Son. He is a Person and is God's Agent in convicting sinners of sin. He regenerates believing sinners and sanctifies consecrated Christians. He magnifies Christ in the lives of believers and energizes them to live victoriously.
Sin
Sin is two fold: 1. Willful disobedience to God's known law; and 2. The corruption in human nature. So all men, Christ excepted, are sinful by nature and sinners by practice, and therefore in need of redemption, since "the wages of sin is death."
Salvation
By His death and resurrection, Christ has won a fourfold salvation for us: 1. Regeneration in which we are forgiven of all sins and baptized by the Spirit into the body of Christ; 2. Entire sanctification in which we are baptized (filled) with the Holy Spirit and cleansed from the carnal mind; 3. Growth in grace after sanctification in which we walk in new light as it is given and are made more and more like Jesus; 4. Immortality of body and soul.
