STATEMENT OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE...
-
the Bible to be the only inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (II Timothy 3:15; II
Peter 1:21).
- there is only one God, eternally existent in three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1;
Matthew 28:19; John 10:30).
- in the deity of Christ (John 10:33); His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:35); His sinless
life (Hebrews 4:15; 7:26); His miracles (John 2:11); His vicarious and atoning death (I Corinthians 15:3;
Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 2:9); His bodily resurrection (John 11:25; I Corinthians 15:4); His physical ascension to
the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19); His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11; Revelation 19:11).
- in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding
sinfulness of human nature; and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ
and that only by God's grace and through faith alone are we saved (John 3:16-19; Romans 3:23; 5:8-9; Ephesians
2:8-10; Titus 3:5).
- in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and
they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation (John 5:28-29).
- in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9; I Corinthians 12:12-13; Galatians
3:26-28).
- in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life
(Romans 8:13-14; I Corinthians 3:16; 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30; 5:18).
- in the creation of man and the world by the direct act of God (Genesis 1:26-28; 5:1-2), and that God has
commanded that no intimate sexual activity should be engaged in outside of marriage between a man and a woman.
We also believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication,
adultery and pornography are sinful perversions of God's gift of sex (Leviticus 18:1-30; Romans 1:26-29; I
Corinthians 5:1; 6:9).
