I believe the Bible to be the verbally inspired Word of God--without error.

I believe in the one Triune God--God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

I believe Jesus Christ is the only begotten, virgin-born Son of God, that He lived, a sinless life, died a vicarious death and rose from the dead on the third day after His death on the cross.

I believe in the Holy Spirit and that He indwells the life of every believer.

I believe that the Holy Spirit, with the Word of God, convicts men of their sin and convinces them of their lost and condemned condition.

I believe that all men are lost without Jesus Christ and cannot be saved apart from Jesus Christ.

I believe salvation to be all of grace and none of works.

I believe people are saved by being "born again" into the Kingdom of God, thus by repentance of sin and faith toward God.

I believe in the eternal security of the believer in Christ.

I believe in the existence of Satan--the Devil--and that he is our enemy, but his end is the lake of fire.

I believe in the personal, visible, return of our Lord Jesus Christ to this earth.

I believe in the eternal punishment of the wicked in a burning Hell and the eternal bliss, happiness and joy of the saints in a real place the Bible calls Heaven.

I believe that Christians should live a separated life from the world.

I oppose modernism and liberalism. I do not belong to the National Council of Churches.

I believe in the local church. I believe in the independence of the local church.

I believe the ordinances given to the local church are two--baptism and the Lord's Supper--that baptism is by immersion of believers and that the Lord's Supper is a memorial to His shed blood and broken body, showing forth His death until He comes.
