Our Beliefs

Clear, Biblical convictions based on the Word of God.

We believe that truth is not a matter of opinion, but a matter of what God has revealed in His Word. The following statements outline our core convictions—not to create a barrier, but to clearly state the foundation upon which this church stands. We welcome you to read through these; if you have any questions or would like to discuss a specific point, please feel free to reach out to me directly.

Our Doctrinal Beliefs

What We Believe

The Triune Godhead

We believe in the trinity of the Godhead; That the eternally existing God has manifested himself in three persons: God, the Father; God, the Son; and God, the Holy Spirit, yet without division of nature, but rather, one true God.
(1 John 5:7)

The Person and Deity of Jesus Christ

We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the Word, became flesh by being born of a virgin, and that He was and is both God and Man, one person with two natures. We believe that He bodily resurrected on the third day and that His position is redeemer, Lord, and Judge. Jesus is the Son of God, and as such is the very God, The great I AM, Jehovah God.
(John 1; John 5; Luke 2)

The Atoning Blood of Christ

We believe in the vicarious, literal, physical death of Jesus and that we receive remission of sins through his Blood. His blood then makes atonement for all our sin.
(Hebrews 9)

The Inspired Word of God

We believe the Bible is the verbally inspired inerrant, infallible Word of God, both the Old and New Testaments. Additionally, the Bible is our authority for faith and practice in local New Testament churches. God has preserved His word as promised, in the English language through the 1611 Authorised Version.
(2 Tim 3:16, 17)

Man’s Sin and Salvation by Grace

We believe all men are born into sin, that they have a sinful nature, and that they must repent and accept salvation by grace through faith in Christ, not external works. Furthermore, their salvation will be evidenced by a changed nature and desire to do God's will.
(Romans 3:10, 23; Ephesians 2:8, 9)

Eternal Security

We believe in the eternal security of the believer. Once a person is saved, God, the author of his salvation is also the one who retains it, grants eternal blessedness and a literal heaven for the redeemed.
(John 10)

Eternity and Judgment

We believe in eternal damnation and a literal, fiery hell for the lost who reject Christ.
(Luke 16)

The Return of Christ

We believe in the literal, physical, premillennial return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
(1 Thessalonians 4 & 5)

The Local Church

We believe in the Biblical authority of the local, autonomous, independent church, from which all missionaries are commissioned and sent forth.
(Matthew 16; Acts 13)

Sanctification and Separation

We believe all believers are called into a life of separation from all worldly practices, places, and alliances and unto a life wholly sanctified to the service of the Lord Jesus Christ.
(1 John 2; 2 Corinthians 6)
