Statement of Faith
That man was created in the image of God and through disobedience sinned and fell, and that the entire human race shares in man's lost and depraved nature. The eternal Son of God took upon Himself the form of a man by means of the Virgin Birth. Atonement for sin was made by the sacrifical and substitutionary death of Jesus Christ. That salvation is the gift of God by grace alone and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and that this faith is manifested in works pleasing to God. In the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His ascension into heaven and His priestly intercession. That the Holy Spirit is the Promise of the Father, our Comforter, sent to convict the world of sin, place the believer in the Body of Christ, indwell the believer and bestow spiritual gifts to the church. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is for all believers as a definite enduement of power for service and is subsequent to and separate from conversion. The ordinances of the church, by command of Christ, are water baptism by immersion and the Lord's Supper. In the eternal salvation of the believers; the eternal damnation and punishment of the unbelievers. The consummation of all things includes the visible, personal and glorious return of Jesus Christ, the blessed hope of the church.
