Christian Truths

      The Bible Scriptures are Inspired by God

They declare His design and plan for mankind. They reveal His nature and character.

They were planned and ordained by God from before the foundation f the world.

There is only One True God

He is revealed in three persons...Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

This is commonly known as the Holy Trinity.

The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ

Jesus is God's only begotten son. Jesus was both human and divine.

Man Willingly Fell to Sin

Although created originally good, man chose to disobey God, ushering evil and death,

both physical and spiritual, into the world.

Restored Fellowship with God by Salvation through Jesus Christ

Through faith and repentance, every individual can have a restored relationship

with God by trusting Jesus Christ.

Water Baptism by Immersion

After repenting of one's sins and receiving Christ's gift of salvation, baptism by

water demonstrates a dying to the old life and becoming alive to the new one in

Christ as an act of one’s will.

Holy Communion

Believers partake of the Lord's Supper as a symbolic remembrance of Christ's

suffering and death for our salvation.

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit

Following the salvation experience the believer receives empowerment

for witnessing and effective service as an act of the will.

The Initial Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is Speaking in Tongues

As experienced on the Day of Pentecost and referenced throughout Acts of

the Apostles and the  Epistles.

Sanctification

God declares the believer Holy as an exchange for a profession of faith in

Jesus sacrifice and resurrection. It is also a progressive lifelong process of

the individual separating from evil and developing a Godly character

through discipleship and obedience.

The Church has a Mission

As God’s children and imitators of Jesus Christ, the believer’s mission is to

seek and save all who are lost in sin. The believer is also to make disciples of

all believers. “The Church” is the “Body of Christ” and consists of any and all

people who, throughout time, have accepted God's offer of redemption

(regardless of religious denomination) through the sacrificial death of His son

Jesus Christ.

A Divinely Called Scripturally Ordained Leadership Ministry Serves the Church

The Bible teaches that each of us is under leadership of a five fold ministry:

Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers. Every believer must

commit himself to develop in Godly knowledge, character and service, according

to the truths in the scriptures, with the end to reach others for Christ, to worship

Him in fellowship with other believers, and to edify the body of believers.

Divine Healing of the Sick

The healing of the sick is provided for in Christ's suffering, death and resurrection.  

"By His stripes ye were healed"

The Blessed Hope – The Rapture of the Church

The second coming of Christ. At this future moment in time, all believers who have

died will rise from their graves and will meet the Lord in the air, and Christians who

are alive will be caught up with them to be with the Lord forever.

The Millennial Reign of Christ

When Jesus returns with His saints at His second coming, He begins His benevolent

rule over earth for 1,000 years. This millennial reign will bring the salvation of

national Israel and the establishment of universal peace.

A Final Judgment Will Take Place

There will be a final judgment for those who have rejected Christ. They will be

judged for their sin and consigned to eternal punishment in the punishing lake of

fire. All people live mindfully conscious forever with indestructible bodies with the

same capacities as this life fully capable of communicating and receiving

both pain and pleasure.

The New Heavens and a New Earth

Christ is preparing a New Heaven and a New earth for all people, of all time,

who have accepted Him. We will live and dwell with Him there forever following

His millennial reign on Earth. “And so shall we forever be with the Lord!'
