Statement of FaithWe believe in one God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Creator of all things We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit of the virgin, Mary; was crucified, died and was buried; on the third day rose from the dead, ascended into heaven and is now seated at the right hand of the Father; He is true God and true man. We believe the Bible in its entirety to be the inspired Word of God and the infallible rule of faith and conduct. We believe in the resurrection of the dead, the eternal happiness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost. We believe in a personal salvation of believers through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. We believe in sanctification through the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit, and we believe in personal holiness, purity of heart and life. We believe in divine healing, through faith in the Name of Jesus Christ, and that healing is included in Redemption. We believe in water baptism; in the baptism in the Holy Spirit distinct from the New Birth; in speaking with tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance (Acts 2:4); in the gifts of the Spirit and the evidence of the fruit of the Spirit. We believe that all these things are available to believers. We believe in the Christian's hope: the soon-coming, personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
