There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit. These three are coequal and coetemal (see Genesis 1:26; Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 3:16,17; 28:19; Luke 1:35; Hebrews 3:7-11; 1 John 5:7)

The Holy Bible is the authoritative Word of God. It alone is the final authority for determining all doctrinal truths for the Church referenced and those associated therewith. In its original writing, the Bible is inspired, infallible and inerrant. The Bible speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, and it is the sole and final source of all that we believe.

Jesus Christ is God the Son, the second person of the Trinity. On earth, Jesus was fully God and fully man. He is the only man ever to have lived a sinless life. He was bom of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the Cross for humankind and, thus, atoned for our sins through the shedding of His blood. He rose from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and will return again in power and glory (see Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1,14; 20:28; Philippians 2:5,6; 1 Timothy 2:5, 3:16).

Salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ through His death, burial and resurrection. Salvation is a gift from God, not a result of our good works or of any human effort (see Romans 10:9-10; Acts 16:31; Galatians 2:16; 3:18; Ephesians 2:8,9; Titus 3:5; Hebrews 9:22).

The ordinance of baptism by immersion is commanded in the Scriptures. All who repent and believe on Christ as Savior and Lord are to be baptized. Thus, they declare to the world that they have died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in newness of life. Believers in Jesus are to be baptized in water in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ (see Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38).

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit manifests through a variety of gifts that build and sanctify the Church, demonstrate the validity of the Resurrection, and confirm 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 are governed by Biblical parameters (see Romans 1:11; 12:4-8; 1 Corinthians 12:1-31; 14:1-40; Ephesians 4:16; 1 Timothy 4:14; 2 Timothy 1:5-16; Hebrews 2:4; 1 Peter 4:10).

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The Baptism in the Holy Spirit, which was experienced by the Early Church on the Day of Pentecost is available to all believers today. It is given to empower the Church to preach the Gospel. And it is an experience evidenced by speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and by the subsequent manifestation of spiritual power in public testimony and service (Joel 2:28,29; Matthew 3:11; Mark 16:17; Acts 1:5-8, 2:1-4, 17, 38, 39; 8:14-17; 10:38,44-47; 11:15-17; 19:1-6)

We believe the Church is the Body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of Jesus’ Great Commission. We believe every person born of the Spirit is an integral part of the Church as a Member of the Body of believers. We believe there is a spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus CMst (See John 17:11,20-23; Ephesians 1:22; 2:19-22; Hebrews 12:23).
