- WE BELIEVE…The Scriptures are Inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.
- WE BELIEVE…There is only One True God–revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).
- WE BELIEVE…In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s son Jesus was both human and divine.
- WE BELIEVE…though originally good, Man Willingly Fell to Sin–ushering in evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.
- WE BELIEVE…Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship with God Through ‘Salvation’ (trusting Christ, through faith and repentance, to be our personal Savior).
- WE BELIEVE…All believers are entitled to and should ardently expect and earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to the command of Jesus Christ.
- We are an Assemblies of God Church (a corporative voluntary fellowship of church's) and we adhere to the 16 Fundamental Truths of The Assemblies of God.
These tenants of faith are based on the truths found in God’s Word, The Bible.
What the Bible Says
The Bible
The Bible is God’s word to all men. It was written by human authors, under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. Because it is inspired by God, it is truth without any mixture of error.
- 2 Timothy 3:16
- 2 Peter 1:20, 21
- 2 Timothy 1:13
- Psalm 119:105,160, 12:6
- Proverbs 30:5
God
God is the creator and ruler of the universe. He has eternally existed in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are co-equal and are one God.
- Genesis 1:1, 26, 27; 3:22
- Psalm 90:2
- Matthew 28:19
- 1 Peter 1:2; 2
- 1 Corinthians 13:14
Jesus
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He is co-equal with the Father. Jesus lived a sinless human life and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of all men by dying on a cross. He arose from the dead after three days to demonstrate His power over sin and death. He ascended to heaven’s glory and will return again to earth to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
- Matthew 1:22, 23
- Isaiah 9:6
- John 1:1-5, 14:10-30
- Hebrews 4:14, 15
- 1 Corinthians 15:3, 4
- Romans 1:3, 4
- Acts 1:9-11
- 1 Timothy 6:14, 15
- Titus 2:13
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is equal with the Father and the Son as God. He is present in the world to make men aware of their need for Jesus Christ. He also lives in every Christian from the moment of salvation. He provides the Christian with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing what is right. The Christian seeks to live under his control daily.
All Christians receive the Holy Spirit at salvation. With this comes a deepened reverence for God, an intensified commitment and dedication to His work, and a more active love for Jesus Christ, the Bible, and other people. This Baptism in the Holy Spirit may be accompanied by speaking in other unlearned languages as God enables one to do so. The major use of this gift is in a person’s private prayer time. However, this type of “speaking in tongues” may occur in a corporate worship setting, but only if it is followed by someone who interprets what is being said so that all in attendance may understand the message.

Man
Man is made in the spiritual image of God, to be like him in character. He is the supreme object of God’s creation. Although man has tremendous potential for good, he is marred by an attitude of disobedience toward God called "sin." This attitude separates man from God.
- Genesis 1:27
- Psalm 8:3-6
- Isaiah 53:6a
- Romans 3:23
- Isaiah 59:1-2
Eternity
Man was created to exist forever. He will either exist eternally separated from God by sin or in union with God through forgiveness and salvation. To be eternally separated from God is hell. To be eternally in union with him is eternal life. Heaven and hell are places of eternal existence.
- John 3:16
- John 2:25
- John 5:11-13
- Romans 6:23
- Revelation 20:15
- 1 John 5:11-12
- Matthew 25:31-46
Salvation
Salvation is a gift from God to man. Man can never make up for his sin by self-improvement or good works – only by trusting in Jesus Christ as God’s offer of forgiveness can man be saved from sin’s penalty. Eternal life begins the moment one receives Jesus Christ into his life by faith.
- Romans 6:23
- Ephesians 2:8, 9
- John 14:6, 1:12
- Titus 3:5
- Galatians 3:26
- Romans 5:1
Baptism
Baptism by immersion symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and is your public declaration that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. Baptism does not save you, but shows the world that you have already been saved. And while baptism is not required for salvation, it is a biblical command and demonstrates your love and obedience to Christ.

Communion
Communion, or the Lord’s Supper, is an ordinance given to all believers by Jesus Christ to remember his sacrifice for us and to symbolize the new covenant. The elements of bread and wine or juice are symbols of Christ’s broken body and shed blood. Communion is not a means of salvation. Rather, it is a testament of a believer’s faith in the atoning work of the cross.
