Our Ministry
Purpose:
Our purpose is to love God, to love and serve others, and to encourage and disciple growing Christians so they are equipped to make a difference.
Mission:
Preach the Gospel, help the hurting, and bring glory to God with our lives.
What We Believe:
We believe the Bible to be the inspired Word of God.
We Believe that there is one God, eternally existing in three
persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ: that Christ is the
only begotten Son of God, and was born of the Virgin Mary; that
Christ died for our sins, was buried, and raised from the dead;
that He ascended to Heaven and is today at the right hand of
the Father as our intercessor.
We believe that "All have sinned and come short of the glory
of God," and that repentance is necessary for the forgiveness
of sins.
We believe that justification is by faith alone, and that regeneration
or the new birth through faith in the blood of Christ is absolutely
essential.
We believe that sanctification is subsequent to regeneration
and is a second definite, instantaneous work of grace obtained
by faith on the part of the fully justified believer.
We believe that the Pentecostal baptism of the Holy Ghost in
an enduement of power of those who have clean hearts, and the
initial evidence of the exception of this experience is speaking
with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.
We believe that the saved should receive water baptism, in the
name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost, as a testimony
to the world that he has accepted Christ as Savior and Lord.
We believe in divine healing as provided in the Atonement.
We believe in the sacrament of the Lord's supper as commemorating
Christ's death and anticipating His second coming.
We believe in "foot washing."
We believe in the personal premillennial, second coming of Jesus:
first, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the
living saints to meet Him in the air; and second, to reign with
His saints on earth a thousand years.
We believe in the bodily resurrection of both the saved and
the lost: the saved to life eternal and the lost to everlasting
punishment.
