WHAT WE BELIEVE

1. The Bible is the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God
   (John 16:13; 2 Timothy 3:15–17; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Thessalonians 2:13).
   
   
2. There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10–11; Matthew 28:18; Luke 3:22; John 14:16).
   
   
3. In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ
   (John 1:1, 14; 20:28-29; Philippians 2:6–11; Isaiah 9:6; Colossians 2:9).
   
   
4. In His virgin birth
   (Matthew 1:18; Luke 1:34–35; Isaiah 7:14).
   
   
5. In His sinless life
   (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 4:15, 7:26–27; 1 John 3:5; 1 Peter 2:22).
   
   
6. In His miracles
   (Matthew 4:23; Luke 6:17–19; John 3:2).
   
   
7. In His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood
   (Colossians 1:14, 20; Romans 5:8–9; Ephesians 1:7).
   
   
8. In His bodily resurrection
   (1 Corinthians 15:3–4; Luke 24:4–7; 36–48; Revelation 1:17–18).

   (Acts 2:23; 5:30–31; 1 Peter 3:22).
   
   
10. In His personal return in power and in glory
    (Acts 1:11; Philippians 2:9–11; 1 Thessalonians 1:10; 4:13–18; John 14:1-3).
    
    
11. That justification by faith in the atonement of Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit are absolutely essential for the salvation of lost and sinful man.
    (Romans 3:24–25; John 3:3–7; 1 John 5:11–13; Ephesians 2:1–16; Revelation 5:9; Acts 4:12; 1 Corinthians 6:11).
    
    
12. The prime agency for the work of God's Kingdom is the Christian local church functioning under the sovereignty of our Lord Jesus Christ. To the church have been entrusted the ordinances of believer's baptism and the Lord's Supper.

13. In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit which includes: the Baptism in the Holy Spirit as an experience distinct from regeneration; His indwelling, by which the Christian is enabled to live a godly life; His supernatural gifting and empowering of the church for its work, life and worship.
    (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4–8, 2:1–4, 10:44–46; 1 Corinthians 12, 14).
