We believe in...
• The
Bible as the inspired, infallible Word of God; the final authority
in all matters of faith and conduct.
• One God, eternally existent in three persons; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
• Jesus Christ, His Deity, virgin birth, sinless life, vicarious death,
burial and bodily resurrection, ascension to the right hand of the Father and
personal future return in power and glory.
• The sinfulness of man and Salvation only by grace through faith in the
shed Blood of Christ.
• The present ministry of the Holy Spirit who indwells in the Christian and
enables them to live a Godly life.
• The Resurrection of the dead, the believer in life everlasting and the
unbeliever to the resurrection of judgment.
• The Church as the Body of Christ, for which He will return, as comprised
of all who have accepted the redemption provided in Him.
• BAPTISM as a testimony of faith in Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.
Baptismal services are not held at regularly scheduled times, but as the need
arises.
• The Dedication of infants. We do not baptize babies, but in the tradition
of Hannah and Samuel, dedicate newborn babes to the Lord. The dedication can
only be meaningful to born-again parents who in dedicating their children
promise before God to train them in the Word both by precept and example.
• The Lord's Supper. Our communion table is open to all who profess Jesus
Christ as their personal Savior regardless of their church affiliation. The
taking of the elements by children is left to the discretion of the parents
who are responsible for instructing their children in this sacred occasion.
• Anointing with oil for healing of physical, emotional and spiritual
problems. Such a provision is considered a fulfillment of the biblical
injunction in James 5:14-15.
