In the divine inspiration, the truthfulness and authority of the Bible in its entirety as the only written Word of God, without error in all it affirms. The Bible is the one supreme authority for faith and practice.
In the one, eternal God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who spoke the world into being and governs it according to the purpose of His will.
In the only savior, Jesus Christ, born of a virgin, in voluntary obedience to God, gave Himself as the only ransom for sins, the only mediator between God and man, the only Name whereby we are saved.
That Jesus arose the third day from the dead and ascended back to Heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.
In the power of the Holy Spirit that works within man to accomplish the new birth on the basis of grace alone, producing the fruit of the Spirit and imparting the gifts of the Spirit to empower service.
In the second coming of Jesus Christ in power and glory.
We also believe . . .
That marriage is the union of one man and one woman, as ordained by God the Father in His Word, the Holy Bible (Genesis 2:23-24; Matthew 19:4-6; Mark 10:5-9).
That marriage between man and woman serves as the foundational unit upon which God expects the family to be built and that both man and woman in that marriage union serve equal and significant roles in the raising of children.
That parents are the Lord’s own chosen servants in raising up His little ones to follow and serve Him (Proverbs 22:6).
