IN NON ESSENTIALS WE HAVE LIBERTY
“Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on disputable matters.
Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls . . .
So then each of us will give an account of himself to God. . .
So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God.” Romans 14:1,4,12,22
IN ESSENTIALS WE HAVE UNITY
“There is one body and one Spirit . . .there is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father of us all." Eph. 4:4-6.
THE BIBLE
We believe :
- That the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments, was given by the inspiration of God, and is our only rule in matters of faith, doctrine and practice.
- In creation; that man was created by God and in the image of God.
- That Adam and Eve, in yielding to the temptation of Satan, became fallen creatures.
- That all men are born in sin, and thus the necessity for repentance.
- In the incantation, the virgin birth of and deity of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God.
- In His vicarious and substitutional death on the cross as (the) atonement for the sins of mankind by the shedding of His own blood at Calvary.
- That the atonement also provides deliverance and healing for those who believe in his Name.
- In justification by faith, and sanctification to be the way of holiness.
- That grace and works as recorded in James chapter 2 are compatible.
- That justification must be sustained by obedience to God’s Word.
- In the resurrection of his body from the tomb, His ascension to Heaven, and that He is now our Advocate.
- the church to be a direct result of the first advent and that men are to be actively drawn to it.
- Immersion water baptism to be scriptural when administered to believers only.
- In the necessity of the New Birth and that this New Birth is through the regeneration of the Holy Spirit as recorded in the second chapter of acts.
- that other tongues is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
- In the restoration of Israel. We believe that He is Personally coming again in His Glorious pre-millennial second advent to judge the wicked, to resurrect the righteous dead, and to establish the Kingdom of God upon this Earth.
- That this statement of faith is sufficient basis for Christian fellowship and that all born-again men and women who sincerely accept this, can and should live together in peace and that it is their Christian duty to promote harmony among the members of the Body of Christ as also to work together to get the Gospel to as many people as possible in the shortest period of time.
