What we teach
The Holy Scriptures
We teach that the Bible is God’s written revelation to man, and thus the 66 books of the Bible given to us by the Holy Spirit constitute the plenary (inspired equally in all parts) Word of God (1 Corinthians 2:7-14; 2 Peter 1:20-21).
There is no revelation of God outside of His word. Nothing can be taken or added to it. It is Gods final word!
Rev 22:18-19
18 I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book; 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life and from the holy city, which are written in this book.
God
We teach that there is but one living and true God (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5-7; 1 Corinthians 8:4)
Jesus Christ - The Son of God
We teach that He was conceived by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the virgin Mary (Luke 1:35) and thus born of a woman (Galatians 4:4-5), so that two whole, perfect, and distinct natures, the divine and the human, were joined together in one person, without confusion, change, division, or separation. He is therefore very God and very man, yet one Christ, the only mediator between God and man.
Holy Spirit
We teach that the Holy Spirit is the divine Teacher, who guided the apostles and prophets into all truth as they committed to writing God’s revelation, the Bible (2 Peter 1:19-21). Every believer possesses the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit from the moment of salvation, and it is the duty of all those born of the Spirit to be filled with (controlled by) the Spirit (John 16:13; Romans 8:9; Ephesians 5:18; 1 John 2:20, 27).
The Rapture, Millennial and Final Judgment
We teach that Jesus Christ will return to receive the church, which is His Body, unto Himself at the rapture, and returning with His church in glory, will establish His millennial kingdom on earth (Acts 1:9-11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 20).
​
We teach that the Lord Jesus Christ is the One through whom God will judge all mankind (John 5:22-23):
​
-
Believers (1 Corinthians 3:10-15; 2 Corinthians 5:10)
-
Living inhabitants of the earth at His glorious return (Matthew 25:31-46)
-
Unbelieving dead at the Great White Throne (Revelation 20:11-15)
The New Testament Church
The New Testament Church began on the Day of Pentecost as recorded in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit fell upon all those gathered in the upper room.
​
The apostle Peter preached to all those who were gathered there on that feast day of Pentecost.
​
When they asked, “ What shall we do?”, Peter responded:
Acts 2:38-39
38 Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”
