The Word of God

We believe that "all Scripture is given by inspiration of God."  We believe that this divine inspiration extends equally and fully to all parts of the Bible - historical, poetical, doctrinal, and prophetical - as appeared in the original manuscripts.  We believe that the whole Bible in the originals is therefore without error. We believe that all the Scriptures center around the Lord Jesus Christ in His person and work in His first and second coming, and therefore no portion, even of the Old Testament, is properly read, or understood, until it leads to Him.  We also believe that all the Scriptures were designed for our practical instruction.

2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:21; 1 Corinthians 10:11

Salvation

We believe that man is saved by grace through faith.
Ephesians 2:8-9; John 6:44

Eternal Security

We believe that every child of God possesses eternal life, is sealed with/by the Holy Spirit, and that one cannot lose the gift of eternal life.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15; 2Timothy 2:11-13; Romans 11:2

Judgment

We believe that every person will be judged for the way that they have lived their lives at two great judgments:

1st is at the Bema or Judgment Seat of Christ. Only believers will be here and the focus of judgment here is not on one’s salvation, but rather on works performed in this body after salvation whether they are good or evil.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15; 2 Corinthians 5:10; Romans 14:12; 1 Peter4:5
2nd is the Great White Judgment Throne. These judgments occur at different times and individuals will appear at one or the other, but not both.
Revelation 20:11

Pre-tribulation and Pre-Millennial

We believe in the Pre-tribulation and Pre-Millennial return of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
1 Thessalonians 1:10; 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8; Revelation 3:10; Titus 2:13
