– Articles of Faith

 

  • We believe that the Holy Bible, God’s Word, is verbally inspired by God, that it is infallible and inerrant, that it is the Sole, Supreme and Final Authority for Faith and Practice, and that the Holy Bible is God’s Revelation of His Plan of Redemption for Man, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

  • We believe that God is One, eternally existing in Three Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.  We believe that God is Infinite, Omniscient, Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Perfect, Holy, Just, and Merciful; and that He personally loves and cares for the welfare of man.

 

  • We believe that Jesus Christ, God the Son, is our Lord and Savior, that He became man without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary.  We believe that there was no sin in Him, nor sin done by Him, and that He voluntarily laid down His life on the Cross as our substitute, shedding His Blood for our sins and thereby obtaining our redemption.  We believe that, although He died, He rose again the third day and ascended into Heaven.  We believe that this same Jesus is the only Mediator between God and man, who now intercedes for us at the right hand of God.  We believe that He will return to earth again, both personally, bodily and visibly.

 

  • We believe that God the Holy Spirit, among other roles, convicts the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment, and He is the Supernatural Agent in regeneration. We believe that He indwells and comforts the Christian, illuminates our hearts with the Holy Scriptures, and guides us into all truth.

 

  • We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but with the power to choose to obey God and live, or disobey Him and die, both spiritually and physically.  Through disobedience, man chose to sin, became totally depraved, and was utterly unable to remedy his lost condition.  Every person since Adam is born corrupt and sinful, since Adam was the Federal head of the human race.  We believe that each man must repent of his sins and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ as his only, sufficient, and personal Savior in order to be saved from eternal Hell, which is eternal separation from God.

 

  • We believe that Satan, a fallen Angel, is the god of this age, the adversary of Christ and His Church, and the accuser of the Brethren, whose destiny is eternal punishment in the Lake of Fire.

 

  • We believe that the Church of Jesus Christ, the Church universal, consists of all those redeemed by the Blood of Christ.  The Church universal is manifest through the local assembly, which is a congregation of Blood-redeemed Children of God, established and joined together to worship God, preach the Gospel, encourage and strengthen one another in love through fellowship, and practice the pure religion of James 1:27, “Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.”

 

  • We believe in the “Blessed Hope” of the personal, imminent, and premillennial coming of the Lord Jesus Christ for His redeemed ones, and in His subsequent return to Earth with His Saints, to establish His Millennial Kingdom.
