We believe that Jesus Christ is God incarnate, fully God and fully man, that He was conceived and born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and sacrificed Himself. By the blood of His cross and His resurrection from the dead, He obtained for us eternal redemption, the forgiveness of sins, and life everlasting. He was raised and ascended to the right hand of the Father. He will return to consummate His kingdom.

We believe that the Holy Spirit regenerates and forever dwells in all Christians. Jesus Christ baptizes believers in the Holy Spirit to empower believers for ministry and witness. We also believe that signs and wonders, as well as all the gifts of the Spirit described in the New Testament, are operative today and are designed to testify to the presence of the kingdom and to empower and edify the body of Christ to fulfill its calling and mission. 

We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith in Jesus Christ.  This saving grace of God, through the power of the Holy Spirit, also sanctifies us by enabling us to do what is pleasing in God’s sight in order that we might be progressively conformed to the image of Christ. We believe that all the redeemed, once saved, are kept by God’s power and are secure in Christ forever.

We believe that water baptism and the Lord’s Supper are to be observed until the time of Christ’s return. They are not a means of salvation. Baptism in water is by immersion and is a symbol of the Christian’s identification with Christ in death, burial and resurrection. Matthew 26:26-29;  Acts 8:36-39; Romans 6:3-11; 1 Corinthians 11:23-34; Col 2:12; I Peter 3:21.

We believe that the church is God’s primary instrument through which He is fulfilling His redemptive purposes in the earth. To equip the saints for the work of ministry, God has given apostolic, prophetic, evangelistic, pastoral and teaching gifts to the church. We also affirm believers being joined with and actively involved in a local community of the saints. God has called the church to preach the gospel to all nations, and especially to remember the poor and to minister to their needs through sacrificial giving and practical service. Matthew 16:17-19; Acts 2:17-18; Ephesians 3:14-21; 4:11-16; Hebrews 10:23-25; 1 Peter 2:9-10.
