...core beliefs
"In the Essentials we need unity, in the non-essentials we need freedom; but in all things we need love." Rupertus Meld
Our Core Beliefs are intended to be the basis of fellowship. There will always be peripheral doctrines that committed Christians disagree upon, but the core beliefs of Christianity are non-negotiable.
Biblical Authority
Scripture is the inspired Word of God, it is historically accurate and is the standard for all life.
An Awesome God
There is only One True who revealed Himself in three persons as Father, Son, & Holy Spirit. God is the Creator and Sustainer of all life.
Fallen Man
Man was created in God’s image but rebelled against God causing corruption to mankind and this natural world.
The GodMan
The Lord Jesus Christ was born sinless of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary; He is the Savior of all who will believe because of His sinless death and resurrection. He later ascended and is ruling in heaven from where He will return literally and bodily for His church.
Real Freedom
Salvation is by grace through repentance and faith accepting Jesus work on the cross, it is the beginning and continuing power of a spirit-filled life of separation from the world and holiness to God. By this there is Eternal life promised to those who will overcome.
The Baptisms
Water Baptism by immersion in the name of the Godhead, is necessary as obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit is a subsequent reality to be experienced by all believers, by which we can operate in the Gifts of the Spirit.
A People Set Apart
The Church is God’s hand in the Earth today, with His authority upon it’s leadership, fellowship and that communion is to be shared to remember the price of this fellowship.
Return of the King
Christ left us with a great promise; He would return again. When this happens we will be with Him forever and be changed to be like Him.
A Final Reckoning
A Day of Judgment is a reality and that the Lord Jesus Christ will determine the ultimate states of entrance to Heaven or Hell. And that Satan and his angels will be judged to a certain Hell.
The Final Restoration
There will be a new Heavens and a new Earth restored to perfect harmony in God.
