We believe in the plenary and verbal inspiration of the Bible as the Word of God; that it is authentic in its matter, authoritative in its counsels, inerrant in the original writings, and the only infallible rule of faith and practice.
Ex. 4:12; II Sam. 23:2; Ps. 12:6; 119:160; Jer. 1:9; Mt. 5:18; 24:35; II Tim. 3:16; II Pet. 1:20, 21.

We believe that there is but one God, eternal, infinite, perfect, and unchangeable, who exists and reveals Himself in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Gen 1:2; 17:1; Deut.6:4; Ps. 90:2; 139:7-12; 147:5; Isa. 40:28; 57:15; Mal. 3:6; Heb. 1:8.

We believe that the Genesis account of the Creation is a historic fact and literally true.
Gen. 1:1, 21, 27; Ex. 20:11; Mk. 10:6-9; Heb. 1:10; 4:4; 11:3.

We believe that man was created by an immediate act of God: In His own image and after His likeness; that by one act of disobedience he became sinful in his nature, spiritually dead, subject to physical death and to the power of the devil, self-centered and self-willed from which fallen condition he was and is unable to save himself.
Gen.1:26, 27; 3:1-7; Eph. 2:1-3, 12; John 6:44; Rom. 5:6

We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, that He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin – the perfect God-man; that He was without sin… making the only adequate atonement for sin by the shedding of His blood, thus reconciling man to God; that He was raised from the dead, ascended to glory and ever liveth to make intercession for us.
Gen. 3:15; Isa. 7:15; 53:5,6; Mt. 1:20-25; 28:6; Lk. 1:35; John 1:1, 14, 18; Acts 1:11; 2:24; 10:39-41; 17:31; Rom. 5:8-10; I Cor. 15:20; II Cor. 5:14, 21; Gal. 3:13; Eph. 1:19, 20; Col. 3:1; Heb. 1:8; 6:20; 7:25; 13:8; I Pet. 2:22, 24; 3:18; I John 2:1, 2; Rev. 1:18.

We believe that man is saved by grace alone through faith alone in the finished work of Christ alone on the ground of His atoning shed blood; that through the new birth he becomes a child of God, partaker of eternal life, and blessed with all spiritual blessings in Christ. All who believe in Christ and repent of their sins are born again and walk in newness of life.
John 1:12, 13; 3:4, 8, 16; 5:24; Acts 13:38, 39; Rom. 3:20-26; Eph. 1:3; 2:8-10.

We believe in the deity and personality of the Holy Spirit; that He convinces the world of sin, righteousness, and of judgment; that He indwells and comforts the believer, guides him into all truth, empowers for service and enables him to live a life of righteousness.
John 16:7, 8, 13; Acts 1:8; 5:3, 4; Rom. 8:1-4; I Cor. 3:16; II Cor. 3:3, 17; Gal. 4:6.

We believe that it is the privilege of all believers to know that they have passed from death unto life. God is able to keep them from falling. Obedience of faith is the evidence of one’s salvation and growth in grace.
John 8:31; Rom. 1:5; 8:16; 16:25, 26; II Cor. 12:9; Gal. 3:11; II Pet. 1:5-11; I John 3:14; 5:13; Jude 24, 25.

We believe that the Church is the body of Christ, composed of all those who through repentance toward God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ have been born again and walk in obedience to the Word of God. They have been baptized by one Spirit into one Body. The divinely appointed mission of the church is to preach the gospel to those of all people groups, teaching obedience to all His commandments.
Mt. 15:18; 28:19, 20; Mk. 16:15; Lk. 24:47; Acts 1:8; 16:31; 17:30; 20:21; I Cor. 12:13; Gal. 3:26; Eph. 1:23; Col 1:18.

We believe that we are called with a holy calling to a life of separation from the world and its follies, sinful practices, and methods; further that it is the duty of the Church to keep herself aloof from all movements which seek the reformation of society independent of the merits of the death of Christ and the experiences of the new birth.
Mt. 28:19, 20; Acts 1:15-26; 14:21-23; Eph. 4:11-16; Tit. 2:11-14; 2:15; 18:15-18; Heb. 13:17; I Pet. 2:9.

We believe that the Lord has vested the Church with authority in accordance with Scriptural teaching: (1) to choose officials, (2) to regulate the observance of ordinances and Christian conduct, (3) to exercise wholesome discipline, and (4) to organize and conduct her work in a manner consistent with her high calling and essential to her highest efficiency.
Mt. 18:15-18; 28:19-20; Acts1:15-26; 6:1-6; 13:1-3; 14:21-23; Eph. 4:11-16; II Tim. 2:2; Tit. 1:5-9; 2:15; Heb. 13:17.

We believe that Christian baptism should be administered upon confession of faith; that the Lord’s Supper should be observed as a memorial of His death by those of like precious faith who have peace with God; that feet washing as an ordinance should be literally observed by all believers; that Christian women should have their heads covered; that the salutation of the holy kiss should be duly and appropriately observed by all believers; that anointing with oil should be administered to the sick who call for it in faith; that marriage between one man and woman is a divine institution dissoluble only by death, that on the part of a Christian it should be only in the Lord and that consistency requires that the marriage relation be entered only by those of like precious faith.
Amos 3:3; Mk. 10:6-12; Lk. 22:19-20; Jn. 13:1-7; Acts 2:39; Rom. 7:2; I Cor. 7:39; 8:12; 11:2-16; 11:23-28; 16:20; 18:8; Jas. 5:14-16.

We believe that God has established unique roles of authority for man and woman and we accept the complementarian understanding as biblical. We believe that the personal appearance and lifestyle of Christian men and women should be modest, free from worldly fashion and adornment, maintaining simplicity in all areas of life, living as strangers and pilgrims in this world, seeking a city not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. We believe that Christians should not take part in any destruction of human life, nor in any acts of retaliation. Instead, they should live a nonresistant lifestyle, demonstrating the love of Christ in their daily walk. We believe that the church and state are ordained of God as separate entities in His divine plan, and that believers should honor rulers and be subject to their authority and pray for them. We believe that the unrepentant, fallen brother or sister shall be excommunicated from the body of Christ in the spirit of love, and be received back into fellowship upon repentance and amendment of life.
Jer. 49:11; Mt. 5:34-46; 22:21; Mk. 10:42-44; Jn. 3:3 5, 17; 18:20; 18:36; Acts 5:29; Rom. 3:10-18, 23; 5:12; 6:1-7; 10:9, 10; 12:1, 2, 19-21; 13:1-7; I Pet. 2:13-17; I Cor. 5:1-13; II Cor. 6:14; 10:4; Gal. 6:10; Eph.1:22, 23; 2:8-10; 5:11, 12; I Tim. 2:1, 2; 2:9, 10; Jas. 4:4; 5:12; I Pet. 3:3-5; I Jn. 2:15-17.
