    We believe in one true and living God, eternally existing in three distinct Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; co-equal in deity, co-eternal in existence, and one in essence and glory.

    We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God, and are the final rule for faith and practice.

    We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, substitutionary atoning death, bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father, present ministry of intercession, and His personal, visible return in power and glory.

    We believe that all humanity fell into sin through the disobedience of Adam and Eve, who literally transgressed God's command by eating the forbidden fruit. As a result, all people are sinners by nature and in need of redemption.

    We believe that salvation is by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ alone, apart from human merit or works, and is made possible through His shed blood and victorious resurrection.

    We believe in water baptism by immersion as an ordinance of the Church, administered in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, as a public testimony of faith in Christ.

    We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit as a distinct experience subsequent to conversion, empowering believers for Christian life and service, with speaking in other tongues as the initial physical evidence.

    We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit and in the operation of the spiritual gifts as set forth in the New Testament.

    We believe in the universal Church, the Body of Christ, consisting of all true believers, and in the local church as God's ordained instrument for worship, fellowship, discipleship, ministry, and evangelism.

    We believe in the pre-tribulation rapture of the Church, when living and deceased believers will be caught up to meet the Lord and be transformed into glorified bodies.

    We believe in the personal, visible, and glorious Second Coming of Jesus Christ following the Tribulation, when He will return to establish His earthly Kingdom and reign in righteousness.

    We believe in the literal Millennial Kingdom of Christ, during which He shall reign upon the earth for one thousand years in fulfillment of God's covenant promises.

    We believe in the conscious intermediate state of the dead, the bodily resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked, the final judgment, the eternal blessedness of the redeemed in Heaven, and the eternal punishment of the lost in Hell and the Lake of Fire.

    We believe in the future establishment of the New Jerusalem, the New Heaven, and the New Earth, wherein righteousness dwells and God shall eternally dwell with His redeemed people.
