Doctrinal Statement
• The Bible, consisting of sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, is the inspired, the only infallible, inerrant and final authority in all maters of faith and practice, authoritative Word of God. ( 2 Tim 3:16-17; 2Peter 1:20-21; Jude 3 ).
• There is one God, eternally existing in three Persons Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. ( Deut 6:4; Matt. 28:19; Luke 3:21-22 )The Lord Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man. Through His atoning shed blood we have salvation. (Luke 1:30-35; John 1:18; 3:16; Phil 2:5-11).
• That for salvation of the lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
• Man was created in the image of God; he sinned and thereby incurred not only physical death, but also spiritual death which is separation from God. (Gen. 1:26-27; Rom. 3:10-23; 6:23, 7:18, 11:32, Gal. 3:22).
• The Lord Jesus Christ died for the whole world and only those who believe in Him are saved. (Rom. 3: 24-28, 8-10; 1Tim. 2: 5-6; 1John 2: 1-2 ).
• The Lord Jesus Christ arose from the dead, ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of the Father. ( 9 John 20: 1-29; Acts 1:9-11; Eph. 1:20-23; Heb 1:3.).
• That a person becomes justified by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
• The present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
• The Lord Jesus Christ will come again personally and bodily. (Acts 1:11; 1Thess. 4:13-18; 1Cor. 15: 51-58; 2Pet.3:1-13; Rev. !9: 11-16, 20: 1-6.).
• Both the believer and the unbeliever will be resurrected, the saved into everlasting life, the lost into everlasting punishment. (1Cor. 15: 1-50; 1Thess. 4: 13-18; Rev. 20: 11-15, 21:22.).
• The spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and His church, the Body of Christ.
