Value 10
We believe that the pursuit of full devotion to Christ is normal for every believer.
We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible, authoritative
Word of God. Therefore, our ministry emphasizes the exposition of God's
Word from Genesis to Revelation, line upon line, precept upon precept.
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, 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 in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost: they that
are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the
resurrection of damnation.
We believe it is important to uphold the scriptural practices of the early
church. Therefore, we hold to the practice of water baptism and the
regular taking of Communion. We do not believe that either of these practices
is essential for salvation, but that they serve as a demonstration of our
living faith in Christ.
