DOCTRINAL STATEMENT

---

   We believe…

…in the verbal, plenary inspiration of the Old and New Testaments.

…in God in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

…that God created the  world in six literal twenty-four hour days .

……that all mankind is sinful, in need of salvation, and unable to save himself.

…that Christ died for the sins of all mankind and that salvation by grace, through faith alone, based upon the finished work of Christ on the cross. 

…in the bodily resurrection of Christ and His bodily ascension into Heaven, where He now intercedes for believers. 

…in the reality of Heaven and Hell.

…that man was created as a responsible being and as such, he may choose to accept or resist the grace of God. 

…in the eternal security of the believer. 

…that the local church is God’s institution to carry out the Great Commission. 

…that the two ordinances of the local church are baptism by immersion for believers only, and the Lord’s Supper as a memorial. 

…in the pretribulational rapture of all believers. 

…in the obligation of every believer to live a holy life and to witness to the lost, of the saving power of Christ.
