The Holy Scriptures
We believe the Bible, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God. It is the final authority for our faith, doctrine, and daily Christian living.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:15–17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21
The One True God
We believe there is one eternal God, the Creator of heaven and earth, who has revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—three distinct Persons, yet one God.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10–11; Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:22
The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father, where He reigns as Lord.
Scripture: Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:31–35; Hebrews 7:26; 1 Peter 2:22; Acts 2:22; Acts 10:38; 1 Corinthians 15:3–4; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Matthew 28:6; Luke 24:39; Acts 1:9–11; Acts 2:33; Philippians 2:9–11; Hebrews 1:3
The Fall of Humanity
We believe humanity was created in the image of God. Through Adam's disobedience, sin entered the world, separating mankind from God and bringing both physical and spiritual death to all people.
Scripture: Genesis 1:26–27; Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:6; Romans 5:12–19
Salvation
We believe salvation is the free gift of God's grace, made possible through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is received by repentance from sin and faith in Jesus Christ alone. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, every believer is made new and empowered to live a life of righteousness and holiness.
Scripture: Luke 24:47; John 3:3; Romans 8:16; Romans 10:13–15; Ephesians 2:8–9; Ephesians 4:24; Titus 2:11–12; Titus 3:5–7
The Ordinances of the Church
We believe Jesus Christ established two ordinances for His Church: water baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper. Baptism is a public declaration of a believer's faith in Christ, while Communion is a remembrance of Christ's sacrifice and a proclamation of His return.
Scripture: Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:16; Acts 10:47–48; Romans 6:4; 1 Corinthians 11:23–26
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift available to every believer after salvation. This empowering experience equips Christians for holy living, effective ministry, bold witness, and the operation of the spiritual gifts.
Scripture: Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4, 8; Acts 8:12–17; Acts 10:44–46; Acts 11:14–16; Acts 15:7–9; John 7:37–39; 1 Corinthians 12:1–31
The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit
We believe the initial physical evidence of the baptism in the Holy Spirit is speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. This experience is distinct from the gift of tongues described among the gifts of the Spirit.
Scripture: Acts 2:4; 1 Corinthians 12:4–10, 28
Sanctification
We believe sanctification is both an ongoing work of the Holy Spirit and the believer's daily response of surrender to God. Through His grace, believers are continually transformed into the likeness of Jesus Christ and called to live lives of holiness.
Scripture: Romans 6:1–13; Romans 8:1–2, 13; Romans 12:1–2; Galatians 2:20; Philippians 2:12–13; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 12:14; 1 Peter 1:15–16
The Church and Its Mission
We believe the Church is the Body of Christ, called to worship God, proclaim the Gospel, make disciples of all nations, care for those in need, and build up believers through the power of the Holy Spirit until Christ returns.
Scripture: Matthew 28:19–20; Mark 16:15–20; Acts 1:8; Ephesians 4:11–16; James 1:27
Men and Women in Ministry
We believe that God calls, equips, and anoints both men and women to serve in ministry according to the gifts and calling of the Holy Spirit. We affirm that women, as well as men, are called to proclaim the Gospel, teach, disciple, evangelize, shepherd God's people, and serve in leadership as the Lord appoints.
Scripture: Joel 2:28–29; Acts 2:17–18; Acts 18:24–26; Acts 21:8–9; Romans 16:1–2; Romans 16:7; Romans 16:12; 1 Corinthians 12:4–11; Galatians 3:28; Ephesians 4:11–13
Divine Healing
We believe that divine healing is provided through the atoning work of Jesus Christ. Through His death and resurrection, Christ made provision not only for the forgiveness of sins but also for healing and restoration. We are convinced that Jesus Christ has authority over every sickness, disease, and affliction—including physical, emotional, and mental illness—and that He still heals today.
Scripture: Psalm 103:3; Psalm 105:37; Psalm 107:20; Exodus 15:26; Matthew 9:35; Matthew 4:23; Matthew 8:16–17; Matthew 10:1; Mark 6:12; Mark 16:17–18; Luke 4:17–19; John 15:7; 1 Peter 2:24; Galatians 3:13; Acts 10:38; 1 John 1:9; Isaiah 53:12; Isaiah 50:6; Hebrews 2:14–15
The Blessed Hope
We believe Jesus Christ will return for His Church. Those who have died in Christ will be raised, and believers who are alive at His coming will be caught up together with Him to be with the Lord forever.
Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17; Titus 2:13; 1 Corinthians 15:51–52
Final Judgment
We believe every person will stand before God in final judgment. Those whose names are written in the Book of Life will inherit eternal life with God, while those who reject Jesus Christ will experience eternal separation from Him.
Scripture: Matthew 25:46; Mark 9:43–48; Revelation 20:11–15; Revelation 21:8
