Our beliefs 

Statement of Faith

1. We believe in the TRINITY (1 John 5:7).  One means Unity.  It is not referring to a number nor to a position.  They are God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. All of the Three are supreme. We believe in One LORD or One GOD. We accept the Hebrew rendering of God as ELOAH in the singular, and ELOHIM in the plural.  We are Biblical Trinitarians.  We reject the ONENESS and the PAGANISTIC TRI-THEISM beliefs.

2. We believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son; therefore, He is God. (Col. 2:9) and that all the fullness of the Godhead dwelleth in Him; that He is eternal and therefore existed before His incarnation (John 1:1, 8:58), that He was born of a virgin (Luke 1:35), that in Him was no sin (I John 3:5), that His death on Calvary’s cross is the only means of man’s redemption, being set forth in Scripture as a ransom (1Peter 1:18, Gal. 3:13), as a propitiation (Rom. 3:25), as a reconciliation (Rom. 5:10), and as a substitution (Isa. 53:6, 1Peter 2:24, 3:18), in His bodily resurrection from the dead (Acts 2:32, 36, John. 20:6-7), in His ascension into Heaven (Acts 1:9), in His presence at God’s right hand (Eph. 1:20), as our intercessor (Rom. 8:34), an advocate (1John 2:1), in His personal, pre-millennial and imminent two phased return.  The first part is secret (1 Thess. 4:16-17).  And the second part is His coming for Armageddon (Revelation 19:11-14).

3. We believe in the personality and deity of the Holy Ghost, who convicts, regenerates, illuminates, indwells, sanctifies, comforts, and abides forever (John 16:8, I Cor. 3:16). We believe that the gifts of tongues, which Biblically are known languages have ceased in operation.

4. We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but that in Adam’s sin the human race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God; and, although man is depraved, he is not totally depraved. He has a "WILL" the capacity to choose and to make a decision. He would either go to heaven or hell depending on his own choice.

5. We believe in the personality of Satan (Job 1:6-7, John 8:44) who is condemned to everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord (Matt. 25:41, Rev. 20:10, Gen. 3:14-15) along with those who reject God’s way of salvation.

6. We believe that God has spoken and that the Bible is the divine, verbally inspired progressive revelation from God (II Tim. 3:16-17, II Peter 1:20-21). We believe that the King James Version, 1611, also known as the Authorized Version, is God’s preserved Word for English speaking people, according to Psalm 12:6-7 and Matthew 24:35. We also believe that the Textus Receptus is God’s Word and to be used when referring to the Greek for the New Testament and the Masorretic Text is to used when referring to the Hebrew in the Old Testament.

7. We believe in the Church which is a spiritual organism made up of believers who are united by the Holy Ghost to the Risen and Ascended Son of God. It is set forth in Scripture as the body of which Christ is the head (Eph. 1:22-23, Col. 1:18, 2:19), the temple or building of which Christ is the Chief Cornerstone (Eph 2:20-21), (I Cor. 3:9-17). We believe in the autonomy of the local church free of any external authority or control (Acts 13:1-4, 15:19-31; 20:28; Rom. 16:1, 4; I Cor. 3:9, 16; 5:4-7, 13; 1Peter 5:1-4).

8. We believe that a person can only be saved when he repents from his wrong beliefs (Acts 17:29-30) about God, and when he believes on the Lord (Acts 16:30-31), and when he calls for help (Rom. 10:13).

9. We believe that each member of the church is called into a life of separation from all worldly and practices (James 4:4, I Jn. 2:15-16, II Cor. 6:14-18) into a life of consecration to God (Rom. 12:1-2); into a life of witnessing unto Christ, proclaiming the Gospel unto the uttermost parts of the earth (Acts 1:8); and to systematically and proportionately contribute to the support of the local church according to the principle laid down in Malachi 3:8-11 and I Cor. 16:2. We believe the ordinances of the church are Baptism by immersion as a mark of our identification with Christ in His death and resurrection (Rom. 6:4) and the Lord’s Supper, remembering the Lord’s death until He comes. We believe that the ministry of the church is two-fold; evangelization and edification, winning the sinner and teaching the saints.

10. We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity should be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman. We believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication, adultery and pornography are sinful perversions of God's gift of sex (Gen. 2:24; Gen. 19:5, 13; Gen 26:8-9; Lev. 18:1-30; Rom 1:26-29; I Cor. 5:1; 6:9; I Thess. 4:1-8; Heb. 13:4).

11. We believe that human life begins at conception and that the unborn child is a living human being. Abortion constitutes the unjustified, unexcused taking of unborn human life. Abortion is murder. We reject any teaching that abortions of pregnancies due to rape, incest, birth defects, gender selection, birth or population control, or the mental well-being of the mother are acceptable (Job 3:16; Psalms 51:5; 139:14-16; Jer. 1:5; Luke 1:44).

12. We believe that God has ordained and created all authority consisting of three basic institutions: 1) the home; 2) the Church; and 3) the state. Every person is subject to these authorities, but all including the authorities themselves) are answerable to God and governed by His Word. God has given each institution specific Biblical responsibilities and balanced those responsibilities with the understanding that no institution has the right to infringe upon the other. The home, the Church, and the state are equal and sovereign in their respective Biblically assigned spheres of responsibility under God. (Rom 13:1-7; Eph. 22:24; Heb. 13:17; I Pet. 2:13-14).

13. We believe that all the saved should live in such a manner as not to bring reproach upon their Saviour and Lord; and, that separation from all religious apostasy, all worldly and sinful pleasures, practices and associations is commanded of God (Rom 12:1-2, 14:13; II Cor. 6:14-7:1; II Tim. 3:1-5; I John 2:15-17; II John 9-11).
