We believe Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, and is true God and true man. He died upon the cross, and all who believe in Him are justified through His shed blood. He arose from the dead and is now at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest. |

We believe the Holy Spirit is a Divine Person, sent to indwell, guide, teach and empower believers. The Holy Spirit came also to convict the world of sin, righteousness and of judgment. |
|

|
We believe all people are born with a sinful nature, separated from the life of God. Those who repent and believe in Him are born again of the Holy Spirit, receive the gift of eternal life, and become the children of God. |

We believe each born again Christian should be baptized in water by immersion, typifying burial with Christ and separation from the life of sin |
|
*
|
We believe the will of God is that each believer should be filled with the Holy Spirit. As such, all who believe should be separated from sin and the world and fully dedicated to His divine purpose, thereby receiving power for holy living and effective service. |

|
We believe prayer for the sick and anointing with oil are privileges for the church in this present age as taught in the scriptures. |
|
*
|
We believe the church consists of those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, are redeemed through His blood, and are born again of the Holy Spirit. Christ is the Head of the Body, the Church, which has been commissioned by Him to go into the world as a witness, preaching the gospel to all people. |
|
*
|
We believe the local church is a body of believers who are joined together for worship, edification through the Word of God, prayer, fellowship, the proclamation of the gospel, and observances of the ordinances of baptism and the Lord's Supper. |

|
Finally, we believe the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is imminent, and will be personal and visible. This is the believer's blessed hope and is vital truth which serves as incentive for holy living and faithful service. |
