WHAT WE BELIEVE
Divine Inspiration of the Bible
We believe in the
verbal, plenary inspiration of the Bible. We believe the King James Version of
the Bible is God's preserved Word for English speaking people.
God
We believe God is
supreme in His person, eternal in His being, absolute in His attributes, and
glorious in His perfection. We believe in the Trinity.
Jesus Christ
We believe in the
virgin birth of Jesus Christ, His deity and sinless life. His vicarious
death, His bodily resurrection and ascension, and His personal, premillennial
return.
The Holy Spirit
We believe that the
purpose of the Holy Spirit is to point people to Jesus Christ. He convicts and
convinces a person of being lost, and without His work one cannot be saved.
Believers are made partakers of the Holy Spirit and empowered for service by
Him.
Man
We believe that man
was created in the image of God and by choice fell into sin and
death. Hence, every person is sinful and under condemnation to eternal
judgement.
Salvation
We believe in the
salvation of sinners by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as the
only way of salvation. We believe that nothing prevents the salvation of
the greatest sinner but his own inherent depravity and voluntary rejection
of the Gospel.
The Security of the
Believer
We believe that those
who receive Jesus Christ as Saviour are eternally secure. Our
security rests on the finished work of Jesus Christ. As a result, we have
assurance.
The Church
We believe that the
church is a local, visible congregation of baptized believers,
practicing New Testament principles, believing its doctrines, observing its
ordinances, and exercising its autonomy.
Heaven and Hell
We believe in the
eternal blessedness of the saved in Heaven and the eternal punishment of the
lost in Hell.
