We believe a New Testament church is a local body of believers who worship Jesus Christ, edify the believers, evangelize the lost, and minister to others. The church has two ordinances: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Baptism symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the new life we have in Him. The Lord’s Supper is a reminder of Christ’s death and anticipates His Second Coming.
We believe in the triune Godhead of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We believe God created the universe by His Power and Word and that He is all-knowing, all-powerful, and ever-present.
We believe that Jesus is the Son of God and was sent by the Father to save sinners. We believe that Jesus died for our sins and rose from the dead victoriously and that He ascended to His Father’s side to be the head of the church. We believe Jesus Christ is coming back a second time and we are doing all that is possible to get our world ready.
We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues and that all believers are endowed with certain spiritual gifts.
We believe that, to receive salvation, one must be born again. We believe that all who have received Christ will, at death, depart to be with Christ in their spirits and, at Christ’s return, will receive a new body which will be like His glorious body. We believe that all believers should be water baptized as commanded in the Scriptures.
