STATEMENT OF FAITH:
The One True God
There is one God, who has revealed Himself as Father of creation, through His Son Jesus Christ in redemption, and as the Holy Spirit indwelling believers.
(See Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 9:6; Colossians 2:9; 1Timothy 3:16; Ephesians 4:4-6; Romans 8:8-11)
The Bible
The Bible is the inspired Word of God; it is infallible and relevant for all times. The Scriptures are sacred and reveal God’s plan of salvation for man. The Bible is the authority that governs our way of life.
(See St. Luke 4:3-4; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:19-21)
The Need for Salvation
Through the fall of the first man Adam, all mankind is born with a sin nature. Salvation is a work of God’s Spirit in the human heart that brings a person to repentance (death to sin), in response to the Gospel (the good news of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ), and yielding to the work of the Spirit (sanctification).
(See Genesis 3:1-7; St. John 3:1-7; Romans 5:17-21; Romans 6:1-4; 2 Timothy 2:19-21)
The Sacrament of Water Baptism
Baptism is an important part of salvation. It is necessary to complete the new birth (See St. John 3:1-7). Through baptism, we are placed into the death and burial of Christ and are made a part of Him in His resurrection
(See Romans 6:1-4). Baptism is to be done by immersion and in “the name of Jesus Christ.”
(See Acts 8:36-38 and Acts 10:47-48)
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit
All believers should expect to receive the “promise of the Father” Acts 1:4-8.
This was the experience of the believers during the time of the early church
(See Acts 2:4; Acts 10:44-46; Acts 19:1-6)
The Healing of the Body
Divine healing is provided for in the atonement and is a benefit for all believers in Jesus Christ.
(See Isaiah 53:4-5; James 5:14-16)
​
The Sacrament of Holy Communion
The Lord’s Supper is a solemn service of celebration where we partake of the bread, which represents His body that He sacrificed for us and the fruit of the vine which represents His blood that was shed for us.
We are commanded to do this until He comes.
(See St. Luke 22:15-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-27)
The Coming of the Lord
With joyful anticipation, we await the Lord’s return for His church. It is our blessed hope.
We believe that the catching away (rapture) of the true church of God is imminent.
(See St. John 14:1-3; 1 Corinthians 15:51-52; 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17; Titus 2:11-13)
The Final Judgment
All mankind will stand before God to give an account for how we have lived.
Are we in Adam’s family line or are we in the line of Christ? Are we in the Lamb’s Book of Life or not?
Have we trusted in Christ alone for salvation?
(See St. Matthew 24:36-51; 1 Corinthians 15:21-22; 2 Timothy 4:1; Revelation 20:11-15)
The New Heaven and the New Earth
God shall make all things new.
(See 2 Peter 3:10-14; Revelation 21:1-5)
