We believe salvation is a gift of God by grace alone and
received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and that this faith is
manifested in works pleasing God.
We believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord,
in His ascension into heaven, and His priestly intercession.
We believe the Holy Spirit is the promise of
the Father, our Comforter sent to convict the world of sin, which
places the believer in the Body of Christ, indwells the believer,
and bestows Spiritual Gifts to the Church.
We believe the baptism of the Holy Spirit is
for all believers as a definite endowment of power for service and
is subsequent to, and separate from, conversion.
We believe that the ordinances of the Church,
by the command of Christ, are Water Baptism by immersion and the
Lord's Supper, both of which are administered to those who are
born again.
We believe in the eternal salvation of the
believers and the eternal damnation and punishment of the
nonbelievers.
We believe that the consummation of all things
includes the visible, personal, and glorious return of Jesus
Christ, the "Blessed Hope" of the church.
