| We believe that the King James Version 1611 Bible, made up of 66 books, is verbally inspired of God, inerrant and is the supreme and final authority in faith and in conduct. We believe that God has preserved His word in the English by way of the King James Version 1611, and in the Greek by way of the Textus Receptus. This is the only reliable text we have. We believe that man, once Holy, fell by voluntary transgression from his holy state and is now utterly void of holiness and is total depraved. We believe that sinners are saved by grace alone apart from any works. We believe that men are justified by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and by God's grace. We believe that salvation is to all who repent and receive the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior. We believe that repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ are the duties of everyone that wants to be saved. We believe that election is the eternal purpose of God by which He graciously regenerates, sanctifies, and saves sinners. We believe that sanctification, begun in regeneration, and ever progressive, is the process by which we are made to partake of God's holiness. We believe that the Church is local and visible; that there isn't such a thing as a universal nor an invisible Church. We believe in the autonomy of the Church which is under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. The Church submits herself to the Bible as her one and only rule of faith and practice. We believe that the local Church only has the authority to send out Missionaries. Missionaries are responsible to maintain Biblical standards of holiness, denying sinful practices and worldly lust. We believe that a Church is a congregation of baptized, born again, believers, united in faith and fellowship of the gospel, observing the ordinances of baptism and the Lord's Supper and obeying the laws of Christ and that it's officers are Pastors and Deacons, The Church is supported by the tithes and offerings of it's own membership. We believe that scriptural baptism is the immersion in water of a believer by the properly qualified administrator and by the authority of a scriptural Church into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. We believe Christ invites only members of the local body to the Lord's Supper and practices closed communion, using the elements of unleavened bread and the fruit of the vine. We believe that the Lord's day (first day of the week), should be set aside to worship God. We believe in the bodily, visible, personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ and the catching away of the saints. We believe all men will experience a physical resurrection. The righteous unto eternal life and the wicked unto eternal damnation. We believe in a literal Heaven with all of it's glories and of a literal Hell with all of it's torments. |
