THE BIBLE
The Bible is the inspired Word of God.
The Bible gives a true history of all creation.
The Bible contains a correct prophecy of the ages to come.

ONE GOD
There is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4).
He has revealed Himself as the Father (Creator), Son (Savior), Holy Ghost (indwelling Spirit).

JESUS CHRIST
Jesus Christ is the only begotten son of God according to the flesh (Romans 1:3).
Jesus Christ is God Himself according to the Spirit (John 10:30).
Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary (Luke 1:35).
Jesus Christ was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead (Luke 24:7; Hosea 6:1-2).

SIN
All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Sin is the transgression of the commandment of God (John 3:4).
The wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23).

SALVATION
Salvation is the deliverance from all sin through the blood of Jesus Christ.
The New Testament experience of salvation consists of repentance, water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:38; John 3:5).

WATER BAPTISM
Water baptism is an essential part of the New Testament salvation.
Water baptism is to be administered only by immersion (Romans 6:4).
It is important that the name of Jesus be used when baptism is being administered. The scripture list three titles (Father, Son, Holy Ghost) and Jesus is the one name for all three (Matthew 28:19).
No one was ever baptized in the Bible using the titles Father, Son, and Holy Ghost (Acts 2:38).

BAPTISM OF THE HOLY GHOST
The Baptism of the Holy Ghost is the birth of the Spirit.
John the Baptist foretold this Baptism (Matthew 3:11).
The Holy Ghost was first poured out on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:4).

TONGUES
Speaking with other tongues is the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Acts 10:44-46 See also Acts 2:4; 19:6).
Tongues were foretold by Jesus as a sign that would follow believers (Mark 16:17).

HOLINESS
Holiness is God’s standard of living for His people.
We must present ourselves as holy unto God (Romans 12:1).

DIVINE HEALING
Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement.
Jesus went everywhere healing those who were sick and He commanded His disciples to do the same (Mark 16:18;James 5:14-16).

SECOND COMING OF CHRIST 

Jesus Christ is coming back to earth in bodily form.
Jesus Christ will catch away a holy people who have accepted redemption through His blood (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).

FASTING
We fast as a way to set aside our desires (or flesh) and draw near to God to understand what His will is for us (Matthew 17:20-21).

PRAYER
Prayer is a vital role in any Spiritual Endeavor. Therefore we believe that prayer should cover all that we do (Jude 1:20).

COMMUNION
We receive communion on a regular basis as instructed in scripture (1 Corinthians 11:25-26)
