Our view of God, Jesus, the Bible, and you.
OUR BELIEFS
GOD
We believe in one God, the Creator of all things, who is revealed in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
(Deuteronomy 6:4; John 15:26)
JESUS CHRIST
We acknowledge Jesus Christ as true God and true man — conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, crucified, and resurrected — our High Priest and Advocate now seated at the right hand of God the Father.
(Matthew 1:18; Hebrews 12:2)
SALVATION
We believe in personal salvation and forgiveness of sins through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, acknowledging every person’s need for the grace and mercy of God.
(Romans 3:23-24; Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:3; 1 John 1:9)
THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe in the present supernatural ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose purpose is to glorify Jesus Christ and instruct and empower every believer for Godly living and service.
(John 16:13-14; 1 Corinthians 12:1-11)
BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
We believe that the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a promise from the Father for every believer and is distinct and subsequent to the experience of the new birth. Speaking in tongues, as the Holy Spirit gives utterance, is a physical indication of the baptism with the Holy Spirit.
(Matthew 3:11; Acts 2:4, 38-39, 19:4-6)
THE INITIAL PHYSICAL EVIDENCE
The baptism of believers in the Holy Spirit is witnessed by the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit of God gives them utterance.
(Acts 2:4; Acts 19:4-6)
PRAYER
We believe in the power and effectiveness of prayer.
