What We Believe

GOD

There is one God, who has revealed Himself as our Father, in His Son Jesus Christ, 

and as the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ is God manifested in flesh. He is both God and man. 

Deuteronomy 6:4, Ephesians 4:4-6 Colossians 2:9, 1 Timothy 3:16

THE BIBLE

The Bible is the infallible Word of God and the

authority for salvation and Christian living.

2 Timothy 3:15-17

SIN

Everyone has sinned and needs salvation. Salvation comes by grace through faith 

based on the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

Romans 3:23-25, 6:23, Ephesians 2:8-9

REPENTANCE

We must repent (turn away from) of our sins. We do this by asking Jesus to forgive us.

 

Repentance removes the barrier that sin erected. It is the first act of faith where

we recognize our sin, confess it to God, and willfully decide to forsake it.

If we desire to receive the Spirit of God in our lives, we must live a repentant life.

Matthew 4:17

THE HOLY GHOST

Jesus promised the Spirit to those who believe.

John 7:38-39, Like 24:49, Acts 1:5

Speaking in tongues is the initial sign of receiving the Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:4, Acts 2:33, Acts 10:45-46; Acts 19:6

God promised His Spirit to all who ask, believe, and obey His Word.

Luke 11:13, John 7:38-39, Acts 5:32

BAPTISM

We must be water-baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins.

John 3:5, Acts 2:38, 8:48, 19:5

Baptism was taught by Jesus as part of the new birth experience.

John 3:5, Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16

Baptism is for the remission of sins. It must done by immersion in 

water, in the name of Jesus Christ. Acts 2:38
