Organizational Statement of Faith: 

Bellow is Our Statement of Faith:

The Scriptures: We believe that the Holy Bible was written by divine inspiration, and that it is a record of Gods revelation of Himself to man. It is a book of divine instruction.

God: We believe there is only one living and true God, and that the eternal God reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each member of the Trinity has distinct personal attributes, but yet he is still one.

God the Father: He is fatherly in His attitude toward all men. He is all-powerful, all knowing, omnipresent, omnipotent, and sovereign.

God the Son: Jesus is the eternal Son of God. We believe He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He was crucified, willingly shedding His blood for the redemption of mankind and forgiveness of sins to all who receive the sacrifice. He was crucified, dead, and buried. On the third day He rose from the dead with a glorified body, appeared to His disciples, ascended to heaven, and is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the One Mediator, bringing reconciliation between God and man. He will return in power and glory to judge the world and to complete His redemptive mission. He now dwells in all believers as the living and ever-present Lord.

God the Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God (the Comforter, the Intercessor, the Strengthener, the Standby, and the Counselor). He illuminates men to understand truth, and He draws men to the Father. He convicts of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment. He enlightens and empowers the believer and the church in worship, evangelism, and service.
Man: We believe man was created in the image of God by a special act of God Himself. Man was created free of sin and innocent, but with a free choice. By mans choice, sin entered the human race. Thus, the fall came by choosing to follow Satan and his temptation. Redemption comes through receiving Christ as a free gift and believing in one's heart that He died for sins through the shedding of His own blood, and receiving and accepting the free gift of salvation offered to whosoever will.

Salvation: We believe in the new birth as a work of Gods grace whereby believers become new creatures in Christ Jesus. It is a change of heart wrought by the Holy Spirit through conviction of sin, to which the sinner responds in repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Church: The Church universal is the Body of Christ, and it consists of all true believers who are associated by their covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel. The various local churches are smaller entities of the universal body of true believers. The Church operates under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, and He raises up pastors and deacons as leaders. The pastors are the shepherds of the individual flocks.

Baptism: We believe in following the example of Christ in water baptism. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believers faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior, and the believers death to sin, burial of the old life, and a resurrection to walk in the newness of life in Christ Jesus.

The Lords Supper: We believe in the Lords Supper as a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church remember the death of Christ by partaking of bread and fruit of the vine.

Tithing: We believe that believers should give a tithe, or a tenth, of their total income to the local church of which they are a part.
