What we Believe
We believe in the inspiration and authority of the Scriptures.
We believe that the Bible reveals God, The fall of man, the
way of salvation, and God’s planned purpose in the ages.
We believe in God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.
We believe that salvation is “by grace” plus nothing
minus nothing.
We believe that men are justified by faith alone and are accounted
righteous before God only through the merit of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Chris.
We believe in the visible, personal and pre millennial return
of Jesus Christ.
We believe in the everlasting conscious blessedness of the saved
and the everlasting conscious punishment of the lost.
