1. We believe that the Bible is the only inspired, infallible, authoritative and inerrant Word of God (II Timothy 3:16, II Peter 1:21) that God has preserved, as promised (Matthew 24:35, I Peter 1:25) in the traditional Hebrew and Greek manuscripts, and that the Authorized Version, the 1611 King James Version, is an accurate translation of the preserved, eternal Word of God.

2. We believe that there is one God (Deuteronomy 4:35, II Samuel 7:22), eternally existent in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit (I John 5:7, John 1:1&14, I Peter 1:2, II Corinthians 13:14, John 15:26), one in essence, coequal and coeternal, but distinct in person and function.

3. We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ (John 1:1,2&14), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:22-23), His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, 7:26), His miracles (John 2:11, Matthew 9:6), His vicarious, atoning death (I John 2:1-2, I Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9), His bodily resurrection (Matthew 28:7 & 9-10, Luke 24:38-39, I Corinthians 15:4-6, Romans 1:4), His ascension to the right hand of the Father (Mark 16:19, Luke 22:69, Acts 5:31, Ephesians 1:20-23), and His personal, visible, bodily return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 1:7, Matthew 24:30).

4. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Trinity, whose ministry is the conviction of sinners (John16:7&8), the regeneration of the soul (Titus 3:5), the indwelling of the body (John 14:17, I Corinthians 3:16), the baptism of water and the Spirit  (Matthew 3:11, Acts 10:47), the sanctification of the believer (I Corinthians 6:11, II Thessalonians 2:13) the illumination of all who are born again into the family of God (I Corinthians 2:13, John 14:26), and the empowerment of believers for the service of Christ (Romans 8:13, Acts 1:8).

5. We believe that God created the universe and everything in it in six days (Genesis 1:31 ? 2:2, Exodus 20:11, Exodus 31:17), and that He created man in His own image (Genesis 1:27, Genesis 5:1, James 3:9), but because of the sin of Adam, all men are born with a sinful nature (Romans 5:12), all have sinned and none are righteous in the sight of God (Romans 3:10&23, Ecclesiastes 7:20&29), nor are any works that man can do sufficient unto salvation (Ephesians 2:8-9, II Timothy 1:9, Titus 3:5), but is freely given to those who have faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ, His death, burial and resurrection (John 3:16, Romans 10:8-13) and outside of Christ there is no other salvation (Acts 4:8-12, I Corinthians 2:2, I Corinthians 3:11).

6. We believe in the resurrection of all men, both the saved and the lost (Revelation 20:12-13, Acts 24:15). Those who are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life (John 3:16 & 36, John 10:28), and to those who believe not, eternal torment (John 3:18, Revelation 20:15).

7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers as members of the one body of Christ, his church on earth (I Corinthians 12:12-13, Galatians 3:28, Ephesians 4:13), of whom Christ is the head (Ephesians 5:23, Colossians 1:18).

8. We believe that the purpose of Christians, the followers of Christ, on earth is to evangelize the lost (Matthew 28:18-20, Romans 10:14-15, Mark 16:15-16), to show love for all people (I Corinthians 12:31 ? 13:4, I Timothy 1:5, Galatians 5:13-15) and to show love by good works, not to earn salvation, but rather as a result of it, to the glory of God (Galatians 6:9-10, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 5:16).
