“Presentations That
Last An Eternity!”Ô
Doctrinal Statement
1. We believe that the Bible is the
written revelation of God, and that the sixty-six books are verbally inspired
in every word (2 Timothy 3:16), absolutely inerrant in the original documents
(Isaiah 30:8), infallible and God-breathed.
We believe the Bible constitutes the only infallible rule of faith
and practice for the Christian (Matthew 5:18, 24:35, John 10:35, 16:12-13,
17:17, 1 Corinthians 2:13, 2 Timothy 3:15-17, Hebrews 4:12, 2 Peter 1:20-21 and
3:15-16).
2. We believe that there is but one living true God (Deut. 6:4, Isaiah
45:5-7, 1 Cor. 8:4), an infinate, intelligent Spirit (John 4:24), perfect in
all His attributes, one in essence but eternally existing in three Persons: The
Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit (Psalm 139:8, Matt 28:19, 2 Cor. 13:14).
God the Father disposes all things according to His own purpose
and grace (Psalm 145:8-9 and 1 Cor. 8:6) and is creator of all things
(Gen.1:1-31). He is sovereign in creation,
providence and redemption. (Job 1:6, Psalm 103:19, Romans 11:33).
We believe Jesus Christ possesses all the divine excellencies of
God and in these He is coequal and coeternal with the Father (John 10:27-30,
14:9) In His incarnation, Christ's divine
nature united with a human nature in an indissoluble union, and so He became
the God-Man (Philippians 2:5-8).
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ was virgin born (Isaiah
7:14, Matthew 1:25, Luke 1:26-35), that He was God-incarnate (John 1:1,3,14,18
and 1 John 1:3) and that the purpose of the incarnation was to reveal God,
redeem men, and rule over God's kingdom (Psalm 2:7-9, Isaiah 9:6, John 1:29,
Hebrews 7:26, 1 Peter 1:19, 2:22).
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption
through His death on the cross, and that His death was voluntary, vicarious,
substitutionary, propitiatory, and redemptive (Romans 3:25, 5:8, 1 Peter 2:24).
We believe that our justification is made sure by His literal,
physical resurrection from the dead; and that He ascended to the right hand of
the Father where He is now ministering as our Advocate and High Priest (Matt.
28:6, Luke 24:38-39, Acts 2:30-31, Rom. 4:25 and Hebrews 7:25,9:24). Christ's bodily resurrection is the
guarantee of a future resurrection to life of all believers (John 5:28-29,
14:19, Romans 1:4, 4:25, 6:5-10, 1 Cor. 15:20,23).
We believe that the Holy Spirit is fully God, divine, eternal,
possessing all the divine excellencies of God, co-equal with the Father and the
Son (Acts 5:3-4).
We believe the Holy Spirit executes the divine will of God with
relation to the world of men. He was
sovereignly active in creation (Gen.1:2), the incarnation (Matt. 1:18), the
written revelation (2 Peter 1:20-21) and the work of salvation (John 3:5-7).
3.
We believe that man was directly
and immediately created by God in His image and likeness. Man was created free of sin with a rational
nature, intelligence, volition, self-determination and moral responsibility to
God (Gen. 2:15-25, 1 Thess 5:23, James 3:9).
We believe that in Adam's sin of disobedience to God's revealed
will and Word, mankind lost his innocence, incurred the penalty of spiritual
and physical death, became the subject to the wrath of God, became corrupt and
utterly incapable of choosing or doing that which is acceptable to God apart
from diving grace. Man on his own is
hopelessly lost, unable to save himself apart from the redemptive work of the
Lord Jesus Christ (Gen. 2:16-17, 3:1-19, John 3:36, Romans 3:23, 6:23, 1 Cor.
2:14, Eph. 2:1-3,8-9, 1 Tim. 2:13-14 and 1 John 1:8).
4. We believe that salvation is
wholly of God by grace, through the redemption of Jesus Christ, the merit of
His shed blood on the cross and not on the basis of human merit or works (John
1:12, Eph. 1:7, 2:8-10 and 1 Peter 1:18-19).
We believe that for man to be saved, he must acknowledge himself
to be a helpless sinner in God's sight and in need of a Savior (Romans
3:23). He must believe that Jesus
Christ died on the cross for his sins (1 Peter 3:18). He must personally receive Jesus Christ into his life, believing
that Jesus, as God, can forgive his sins (John 1:1,12 and Mark 2:1-13).
We believe that regeneration will follow true salvation as
accomplished by the power of the Holy Spirit through the Word of God (John
5:24). Regeneration will be manifested
by repentance, faith, and righteous living.
Good works, although not required for salvation, are salvation's proper
evidence and fruit (1 Cor. 6:19-20, Eph. 2:10) and will be experienced to the
extent that the believer submits to the control of the Holy Spirit in his life
through faithful obedience to the Word of God (Eph. 5:17-21, Phil. 2:12b, Col.
3:16, 2 Peter 1:4-10).
