I
believe that the
Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments are verbally inspired of
God and
that they are the supreme and final authority for faith and practice. The
Authorized
King James Version, in whole, is the Word of God, without error. *
I
believe in a Triune
God (Ephesians
God, the Father,
Creator of Heaven and
earth, perfect in holiness,
infinite in wisdom, rich in grace, supreme in love, and measureless in
power.
He hears and answers prayer. He saves from sin and death, all who come
to Him
through Jesus Christ.
God,
the Son,
Jesus Christ, God’s
only
begotten Son and born of the virgin Mary. He is the only atonement for
the sin
of this world by the shedding of His blood on the cross. I believe that
He
arose bodily, ascended into Heaven and is seated at the
Father’s right hand as
our High priest and Only Mediator. I look for His personal,
premillennial,
imminent return.
God the Holy Spirit, a
person Who is co-equal with the Father and the Son. He is sent from God
to reprove the world of sin and to regenerate and seal all who receive
Christ as
personal Savior. *
I
believe that man was
created in the image of God but because of Adam’s
transgression, the whole
human race fell. All men everywhere are sinners, both by nature and by
choice. *
I
believe in a personal
devil that was cast out of Heaven and is now the prince of the air. He
is the
archenemy of God. He has already been judged and someday will be cast
into the
lake of fire to be tormented day and night, forever and forever. * I believe that salvation is by grace, through the blood of the Son of God, which was shed for the sins of all mankind, based upon His finished work and not merely for a selected few. When one obtains salvation, he is eternally secure in Christ. *
I
believe the church
consists of regenerated believers who have been scripturally baptized
and are
banded together for worship, spiritual fellowship and the work of
spreading the
Gospel to the ends of the earth. Baptism and the Lord’s
Supper are the only
church ordinances. *
I
believe in Bible
separation, that is, to be set apart from the world, sin, self, and
Satan, and
to be separated “ unto the praise of His glory” and
the furtherance of the
Gospel. *
I
believe that all
believers are to be witnesses unto the lost for Christ and that
all who have rejected the Gospel or who have never heard the Gospel are
lost
and that it is every believer’s responsibility to help get
the Gospel to
everyone. *
I
believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual
activity be engaged in outside of marriage between a man and a
woman. I
believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality,
bestiality,
incest, fornications, adultery and pornography is a sinful perversion
of God's
gift of sex. I believe that God disapproves of and forbids any attempt
to
alter one's gender by surgery or appearance. (Genesis 2:24; Genesis
19:5-13;
Genesis 26:8-9; Lev. 18:1-30; Romans 1:26-29; 1 Corinthians
5:1,
6:9; 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8; Hebrews 13:4) |
