What We Believe
 
 
 
quillThe Bible and Salvation
 
The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, and are our infallible rule of faith and practice.
 
The conditions of salvation are: (1) Repentance of sin or sincere sorrow for sin and hearty renunciation of it. (2) Faith or the unreserved committal of one’s self to Christ as Savior and Lord with purpose to love and obey Him in all things. In the exercise of saving faith, the soul is renewed by the Holy Spirit, freed from the dominion of sin, and becomes a child of God. (3) Continuance in faith and obedience unto death. God desires the salvation of all, the Gospel invites all, the Holy Spirit strives with all, and whosoever will may come and take of the water of life freely.

userGod The Father, The Son & The Holy Spirit
 
God – There is one living and true God, revealed in nature as the Creator, Preserver, and Righteous governor of the universe; and in the Scriptures as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; yet as one God, infinitely wise and good, whom all intelligent creatures are supremely to love, adore and obey.
 
Christ – Christ is God manifest in the flesh; in His divine nature truly God, in His human nature truly man. The mediator between God and man, once crucified, He is now risen and glorified, and is our ever present Savior and Lord. The Son of God by His incarnation, life, sufferings, death, and resurrection effected for all a redemption from sin that is full and free, and is the ground of salvation by faith.
 
The Holy Spirit – The Scriptures assign to the Holy Spirit all the attributes of God.
 
 
eyeSinfulness of Man & Freedom of the Will
 
Man was created innocent, but by disobedience fell into a state of sin and condemnation. His posterity, therefore, inherits a fallen nature of such tendencies that all who come to years of accountability sin and become guilty before God.
 
The human will is free and self-controlled, having power to yield to the influence of the truth and the Spirit, or to resist them and perish.
Election & Perseverance of the Saints 
 
God determined from the beginning to save all who should comply with the conditions of salvation. Hence by faith in Christ men become His elect.
 
All believers in Christ, who through grace persevere in holiness to the end of life, have promise of eternal salvation.
