We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of Christ, in His Virgin Birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful humanity, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential, and that repentance from sin and acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the only way to come into a relationship with God.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life; we further believe His power and gifts are available to believers today. We believe the Holy Spirit gives each believer gifts individually ordained by God. We believe that not everyone receives the same gifts.
We believe that we should work together using the gifts and faith that God gives each of us so as to strengthen and build up the "whole body of Christ". That "body" being God's Church. We Believe that God has placed Jesus over the the church as "the Head" of the church. We also believe that prayers are to be prayed in "Christ's name" only.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they who are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
We believe it is important to obey the command from Jesus and uphold the scriptural practices of the early church. Therefore, we hold to the practice of a full body water baptism and the regular taking of Communion.
