WHO WE ARE

---

We firmly believe:

• That Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that He was crucified, died, and was buried. On the third day, He rose from the dead, and later ascended into heaven, where He remains at the right hand of God Almighty.
• That after death, eternal life continues either in heaven or hell,  based on your decision to make Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior.      That when the Rapture occurs, the dead in Christ will rise first, and then those who are alive and remain (those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior) will be caught up to meet Him in the air.
• The only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential for personal salvation.
• The Bible to be the inspired and only infallible, authoritative Word of God. We believe. Jesus is God incarnated in the flesh.
• We practice implementing the "word into action" by being "doers of the word, and not just hearers only" (James 1:22)
• Faith is a practical response to the Word of God.
• In water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, which means to immerse, dip, or cover wholly with fluid. In addition, we believe the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing of the human body and that the baptism of the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4 is given to believers who ask for it.
• In prophecy, which is an inspired declaration of God's divine will and purpose, and is used to confirm the Word of God.
• In the authority of Jesus’ name.
• In the indwelling and baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
• In divine healing—the restoration of health to those who believe and act on the truths written in God’s Word. We further believe that Jesus is our Healer and that by His stripes, we are already healed.
• Tithes and offerings should be freely given to your local church.
• That the local church is the place of partnership where God has called you to receive His Word on a consistent basis and to grow spiritually.
• In giving alms to the poor, sick, homeless, and others in despair.
• In the Biblical equality and value of all human persons, as men, women, and children of all races were created in the image of God and are called to His service. (Gen.1:27; John 1:12; Gal.3:28; Joel 2:28, 29)
