Statement of Faith

THE HOLY SCRIPTURES

We believe the King James Version of the Bible is the preserved, inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God in the English language. We reject modern Bible versions and textual criticism that undermine biblical certainty. The Bible is our final authority in all matters of faith and practice. (Psalm 12:6–7, Matthew 24:35, 2 Timothy 3:16)

The Godhead

We believe in one God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. They're equal in power, holiness, and glory. (Deuteronomy 6:4, 1 John 5:7)

The Lord Jesus Christ

We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, substitutionary death, bodily resurrection, ascension, and literal, visible second coming. Jesus Christ is the only Savior and the only mediator between God and men. (John 1:1, Isaiah 7:14, 1 Peter 2:22, 1 Corinthians 15:3–4, Acts 1:11)

Salvation

We believe salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, and not of works: sacraments, nor by religious effort, nor by stopping sinning, nor by doing good deeds, nor by water baptism, nor by observing the law or following the 10 commandments. Salvation is an instantaneous act of God based solely on faith in the finished work of Christ, which is the death, burial, and resurrection. (John 3:15-16, Ephesians 2:8-9, Titus 3:5, Acts 16:30-31)

We believe in eternal security, once saved, always saved. (John 10:28, 1 Corinthians 1:8, Ephesians 1:12-13, John 1:12)

THE HOLY SPIRIT

We believe the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, regenerates the believer at salvation, indwells every believer permanently, seals the believer unto the day of redemption, and empowers the believer for Christian living and service. We reject modern charismatic sign gifts as being normative for today. (John 16:8, Ephesians 1:13)

THE LOCAL CHURCH

We believe the local church is a visible, autonomous assembly of baptized believers, organized to carry out the Great Commission. Each local church is self-governing under Christ and free from outside ecclesiastical control. (Matthew 16:18, Ephesians 5:23)

BAPTISM AND THE LORD’S SUPPER

We believe in believers’ baptism by immersion as a testimony of salvation, not as a means of salvation. We believe the Lord’s Supper is a memorial ordinance for believers, observing Christ’s death until He comes. (Acts 2:41, 1 Corinthians 11:24)

SOULWINNING & THE GREAT COMMISSION

We believe every believer is commanded to personally evangelize by witnessing to the lost through preaching, teaching, tract distribution, and confrontational soulwinning. The Great Commission is the local church's primary mission. (Mark 16:15, Acts 5:42, Proverbs 11:30)

SEPARATION

We believe in biblical separation from doctrinal error, worldliness, compromise, and ecumenism. We seek to live holy lives, separated unto God and separated from practices that dishonor Christ. (2 Corinthians 6:17, Romans 12:1-2)

CHRISTIAN LIVING

We believe the Christian life should reflect holiness, modesty, moral purity, obedience to Scripture, and submission to biblical authority. We reject cultural compromise and worldly philosophies that contradict God’s Word. (John 14:6, Psalm 92:12-13, Ephesians 4:32, Romans 12:15,1 Corinthians 10:31, Galatians 5:22-26, Romans 12:1-2)

THE FAMILY

We believe God ordained the family, consisting of one man and one woman united in marriage, as the foundational institution of society. Children are a heritage from the Lord, and parents are responsible for raising them in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. (Genesis 1:27, Hebrews 13:4)

CIVIL GOVERNMENT

We believe God ordains civil government, but when laws contradict Scripture, we must obey God rather than men. We affirm religious liberty and oppose government intrusion into biblical convictions. (Matthew 22:21, Acts 5:29)

LAST THINGS

We believe in the premillennial, pre-tribulational return of Jesus Christ, the bodily resurrection of all men, the eternal punishment of the lost in the lake of fire, and the eternal joy of the saved in Heaven. (Hebrews 9:27, Matthew 25:46)
