Statement of Faith

Here is the Doctrinal Statement & Ordinances found in our church constitution:

  • The Divine inspiration and supreme authority of the Old and New Testaments.
  • The existence of one God in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
  • The Deity, Incarnation, and virgin birth of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God, the Second Person in the Holy Trinity.
  • The fallen sinful and lost condition of all people.
  • The salvation of people from the penalty and power of sin, through the perfect obedience of the Lord Jesus Christ, His atoning death, His resurrection from the dead, His ascension to the right hand of the Father and His unchanging Priesthood.
  • The immediate work of the Holy Spirit in the regeneration of people, in their sanctification and in their preservation to the Heavenly Kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • The necessity, in order to obtain salvation, of repentance towards God and of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • The resurrection of the dead and the final judgement of all people by the Lord Jesus Christ.
  • The two ordinances of the Lord Jesus Christ – namely, Baptism and the Lord’s Supper which are of perpetual obligation. Baptism being the immersion of Believers upon the profession of their Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and a symbol of the fellowship of the regenerate in His death, burial, and resurrection; the Lord’s Supper being a memorial, until He comes, of the sacrifice of the body and the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ
