WHAT WE BELIEVE

We believe that there is only one true God who is the eternal King, Creator, and Redeemer of all that is. He is perfectly holy, just, loving, and truthful. God in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. According to the scriptures John 1:1,14,18; Matthew 3:16-17; Matthew 28:19; John 14:26-28; John 17:21; 2 Cor 13:14; Ephesians 4:4-6; Philippians 2:6

The Bible

The Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God. 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21 We believe the King James Bible - KJV is the most accurate version of the Holy Bible in the English language. The King James Bible was translated from the traditional Eastern manuscripts.

Salvation

We are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ: His death, burial, and resurrection. Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of our good works or of any human efforts. Jesus is the one and only way to have a relationship with God and receive the gift of eternal life. Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6

Water Baptism

Water baptism by immersion in water is an outward sign and testimony of an inward grace. Matt. 28:19, Romans 6:4; Colossians 2:12; Acts 8:36-39

Holy Spirit

The baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 1:4-8 and 2:4, is poured out on believers that they might have God’s power to be His witnesses. When baptized in Holy Spirit, you will receive power to do the things Jesus did and even greater things John 14:12-14. Holy Spirit baptism also empowers believers with gifts. 1 Corinthians 12 You will receive a prayer language known as tongues. Holy Spirit Himself prays through us in these tongues. Romans 8:26-27 Matthew 3:11; John 14:16-17; Acts 2:38-39; Acts 19:1-7

Gifts of The Spirit

The Holy Spirit is manifested through a variety of spiritual gifts to build and sanctify the church, demonstrate the validity of the resurrection, and confirm the power of the Gospel. All believers are commanded to earnestly desire the manifestation of the gifts in their lives. These gifts always operate in harmony with the Scriptures and should never be used in violation of Biblical parameters. Hebrews 2:4; Romans 1:11, Romans 12:4-8; Ephesians 4:16; 1 Timothy 4:14; 2 Timothy 1:6-7; I Corinthians 12:1-31, I Corinthians 14:1-40; I Peter 4:10

Divine Healing

Healing of the body is available through the atoning work of Jesus, our Savior. Mark 16:18; James 5:14-16; 1 Peter 2:24; Matthew 8:17; Isaiah 53:4-5; 1 Corinthians 12:7; 1 Corinthians 12:10-11

Second Coming

Jesus Christ will physically and visibly return to earth for the second time to establish His Kingdom. This will occur at a date undisclosed by the Scriptures. Matthew 24:30; Matthew 26:63-64; Acts 1:9-11; I Thessalonians 4:15-17; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-8; Revelation 1:7

Heaven and Hell

Heaven is the eternal dwelling place for all believers in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Matthew 5:3; Matthew 12; Matthew 20; Matthew 6:20; Matthew 19:21; Matthew 25:34; John 17:24; 2 Corinthians 5:1; Hebrews 11:16; I Peter 1:4 After living one life on earth, the unbelievers will be judged by God and sent to Hell where they will be eternally tormented with the Devil and the Fallen Angels. Matthew 25:41; Mark 9:43-48; Hebrews 9:27; Revelation 14:9-11; Revelation 20:12-15; Revelation 21:8

Reserrection

Jesus Christ was physically resurrected from the dead in a glorified body three days after His death on the cross. In addition, both the saved and the lost will be resurrected; those who are saved to the resurrection of life and those who are lost to the resurrection of eternal damnation. Luke 24:16; Luke 24:36; Luke 24:39; John 2:19-21; John 20:26-28; John 21:4; Acts 24:15; I Corinthians 15:42; I Corinthians 15:44; Philippians 1:21-23; Philippians 3:21

Israel
Israel is God’s chosen people through whom Jesus, our Messiah, came that the whole world would be saved. God’s gifts and calling for the Jewish people are irrevocable, and the gentile church has not replaced the nation of Israel as God’s chosen people, but rather has been grafted in to their tree to partake of the blessings of salvation and the blessings of Abraham. We pray for and stand with Israel and the peace of Jerusalem, and believe that all of Israel shall be saved. Rom 1:16; Matt 15:24; Gal 3:29; Eph 2:11-20; Rom 9:2-5; Rom 10:12-13; Rom 11:11-24; 2 Cor 3:15-16; Rom 11:25-26; Rom 11:28
