We believe the Scriptures to be completely infallible and inerrant as originally given by God in
the original text. The entire writings of the Old and New Testaments were verbally inspired in the sense that "holy men of God" were moved by the Holy Spirit to write the very words of Scripture.
We believe that all Scripture centers around the Lord Jesus. Therefore no portion, even the Old
Testament, is properly read or understood, until it leads to Him.
We believe that the Scriptures are the supreme and final revelation of God's will for man until
the Lord returns and are, therefore, altogether sufficient in and of themselves as our only infallible rule of faith and practice.
We believe in a dispensational approach and literal interpretation of Scripture.
We believe in one triune God who is personal, spirit, and sovereign. The Godhead eternally exists and is self revealing in three distinct persons - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. All three persons have precisely the same nature, attributes, and perfections and each one is to be honored and worshipped equally as true God.
We believe Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God and the second person
of the Trinity, became a real man by the miracle of the virgin birth.
We believe the Holy Spirit indwells, baptizes, seals, empowers, teaches,
and sanctifies all who become children of God through faith in Christ.
We believe God made humanity in His own image, free from sin, but as a consequence of the personal disobedience of Adam, all human beings are born totally depraved, having a sinful nature which is at enmity with God.
We believe Jesus Christ died in our place at Calvary and His sacrifice is the only grounds for forgiveness of sins.
We believe in the physical resurrection of Christ, His ascension into Heaven, and His present ministry before God as advocate and intercessor for those who believe in Him.
We believe salvation comes only by the grace of God through faith in Christ alone and all who believe in Him are eternally saved.
We believe in the personal, imminent, pretribulation, and premillennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in His subsequent return to set up His Kingdom on earth.
We believe that sanctification is that work whereby the believing sinner is set apart to God from sin. Sanctification involves three aspects: positional, progressive and final
A setting apart, once and for all, of the believing sinner as God's own possession by means of the blood of Christ. Therefore, in his standing before God the believing sinner is reckoned holy.
The present work of God whereby the believer, in his experience, is progressively set apart from sin and brought toward holiness. While the standing of the believer in Christ before God is perfect, his present state is no more perfect that his experience in daily life.
The work of the future wherein God will wholly finish the process of perfection at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in special creation by God, which holds to the literal interpretation of the Genesis account.
No gaps of time nor day-age theory is allowed by the text of Scripture. Creation was completed by God in a literal six-day period and the seventh day God rested, not out of necessity, but as an example for men to follow.
We believe that the institution of marriage has been ordained by God to join one adult male with one adult female for companionship and procreation, and is the only proper outlet for sexual pleasure.
We believe that a person’s gender is determined at birth based on physical traits, except in rare cases of genetic anomalies.
We deny that any form of marriage has validity from any source other than God, that marriage is valid between any other couple than one adult male and one adult female, that gender may be altered by surgery, attire, or any other artifice, or that sexual activity is permissible outside of a valid marriage.
