What We Believe

About the Scriptures:

We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of the entire Bible, both the Old and New Testaments. We further accept the Textus Receptus manuscripts from which came the King James Bible, and accept the King James Bible as God's divinely preserved Word of God for the English speaking world.

About the Trinity:

We believe that God is a person, eternally existing as a Trinity, manifesting Himself in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We also believe that these three are one God, but separate in personality and work.

About Jesus Christ:

We believe that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, eternally existing yet born of a virgin. Being God, He lived a sinless life, whose death on the cross was both sufficient and substitutionary for the sins of the whole world. After making atonement for the sins of the world, with His own blood, He ascended into Heaven with a glorified body where He is seated at the right hand of the Father as Head of the Church, making intercession for the saints as our High Priest.

About Salvation:

We believe that man is lost in sin and must be born again to enter into Heaven. We believe that man is a sinner by nature and by choice. That by the reproving work of the Holy Spirit, he realizes his lost estate, and that Christ's finished work on the cross is the only way to salvation. Salvation is by grace through a personal acceptance of Christ by faith. The salvation of a man's soul is by grace alone through personal faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross.

About the Church:

We believe that the local church is a group of believers baptized by immersion; joined together for edification, exhortation, and evangelism as commanded by Christ in the Great Commission; preaching the gospel to every creature. We believe God's program today is centered in the local independent New Testament church.

About the Second Coming:

We believe the Lord Jesus Christ Himself is coming again in the air at any moment to rapture His church and to reward their works. The unbelievers left behind will go through a seven year period called the Tribulation, after which Christ shall return visibly to the earth with His saints to set up His Kingdom of one thousand years of righteous rule. After this, the unbelievers of all ages will stand at the Great White Throne to be judged and cast into the Lake of Fire, separated from God for all eternity. We as believers will spend eternity in Heaven with our Lord Jesus Christ.
