Biblical/Theological Precepts

What we believe:

  • In one God, manifested in three persons, Father Son, and Holy Spirit, co-equal and co-eternal.
     
  • In the perfect humanity and the perfect Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. His substitutional death on the cross. His burial, His bodily resurrection, and His pre—millennial and second coming for His saints.
     
  • In the personality of the Holy Spirit, and full recognition of His work, in this age of reproving, convicting, sealing, baptizing, instructing, indwelling, and filling.
     
  • In the Bible as the infallible Word of God, and that, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God.”
     
  • The Salvation is by grace through faith; it is a gift of God unmerited on our part and that we are redeemed only through the shed blood of Christ on the cross.
     
  • That all whose who have accepted Christ as their personal Savior are born again and are members of the Church, which is the body and Bride of Christ regardless of membership in any local organized church or denominations.
     
  • In the eternal security of the believer.
     
  • In the personality of Satan. That he was created perfect but fell through pride and became the originator of sin, and the enemy of God, and that he is the “god of this world.”
     
  • In the fall of man by believing Satan, and his condemnation as a sinner, which includes all mankind.
     
  • In the eternal punishment of those who reject so great a salvation, and the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
     
  • That though the saved person may have occasion to grow in knowledge of his position and power, he is as soon as he is saved absolutely complete in Christ and is in no way required by God to seek a so-called second blessing or second work of grace.
     
  • That the saved person retains his sin nature which is not removed in this life, but that provision is made by the Spirit for daily victory over sin and may be appropriated and is effective to those who do so.
     
  • That some gifts of the Holy Spirit such as speaking in tongues and miraculous healings were temporary. We believe that speaking in tongues never was the necessary sign of the baptism of the Spirit, and that while all healing is of God, men today do not possess such a gift.
