STATEMENT OF FAITH THAT THERE IS ONE GOD WHO EXISTS IN THREE PERSONS THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. THAT JESUS THE SON OF GOD, WAS BORN OF A VIRGIN, WAS WHOLLY GOD AND WHOLLY MAN, LIVED A SINLESS LIFE, DIED IN OUR PLACE AS A SACRIFICE FOR THE SINS OF MANKIND, WAS BURIED, AROSE BODILY FROM THE GRAVE, AND ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN. THAT JESUS CHRIST WILL LITERALLY RETURN TO EARTH. HOLY SPIRIT THAT GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ACTIVE IN CONVINCING PEOPLE OF THEIR NEED FOR SALVATION, AND IS THE COMFORTER AND GUIDE WHO EQUIPS AND EMPOWERS EVERY CHRISTIAN. THAT THE BIBLE IS THE WORD OF GOD WITHOUT ANY ERROR, THE SOLE AUTHORITY FOR LIFE AND FAITH. THAT MAN IS A SPECIAL CREATION OF GOD, MADE IN HIS IMAGE, BUT THAT THROUGH THE SIN OF THE FIRST MAN, ADAM, MANKIND FELL SO THAT ALL PEOPLE ARE SINNERS AND NEED SALVATION. THAT SALVATION IS A GIFT RECEIVED THROUGH GOD’S GRACE BY TURNING TOWARD GOD AND BELIEVING IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.THAT EVERY PERSON WHO IS TRULY BORN AGAIN IS ETERNALLY SECURE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. THAT THOSE PERSONS WHO DIE IN THEIR SINS WITHOUT CHRIST SPEND ETERNITY IN HELL AND THOSE PERSONS WHO DIE WITH THEIR SINS FORGIVEN THROUGH CHRIST SPEND ETERNITY IN HEAVEN. THAT WATER BAPTISM IS AN ACT OF OBEDIENCE TO THE COMMAND OF CHRIST AND IS BY IMMERSION AFTER SALVATION. THAT THE CHURCH IS A LOCAL BODY OF CHRISTIANS WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AS THE HEAD.
