Beliefs and Core Values

Principles and Convictions from God’s Word

Core Values

  • The Word of God as our Final Authority
  • A Spirit-Controlled Life
  • Dependence on God
  • The Role and Responsibility of the Local Church in the Great Commission
  • Readiness to Sacrifice for Christ and His Church
  • Godly Relationships and Interdependence in Ministry
  • The Potential of All Believers to be Used by God in the Great Commission
  • Excellence and Urgency in all We Do to Finish the Task

We Believe:

  • In the word-by-word inspiration, inerrancy, and final authority of the Holy Scriptures.
  • In one God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  • In the Lord Jesus Christ as true God and true man; His virgin birth, sinless humanity, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, present advocacy, and His bodily return.
  • In the fall of man, resulting in his complete and universal separation from God and his need of salvation.
  • That the Lord Jesus Christ shed His blood and died as a sacrifice for the sins of every person in the whole world.
  • That salvation is a free and everlasting gift of God, entirely apart from works, received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • That the Holy Spirit regenerates with divine life and personally indwells the believer upon faith in Christ for salvation.
  • In the bodily resurrection and unending life of the saved with the Lord and the bodily resurrection and unending punishment of the unsaved.
  • The church, beginning at Pentecost, is the body of Christ comprised of those who have trusted Jesus Christ as Savior.
  • It is the church’s responsibility to glorify Christ by preaching the gospel to the world and making disciples of all nations.

We Teach and Hold the Following Positions

  • The pretribulational rapture of the church and Christ’s premillennial return to the earth.
  • The historical-grammatical interpretation of the Bible.
  • That a soul once saved can never be lost.
  • The practice of believer’s baptism by immersion.
  • That we do not practice what are commonly known as the “sign gifts.”
