·We believe that the Bible is the inerrant, infallible, verbally inspired and providentially preserved Word of God and is the supreme and final authority in all things. We accept, use, endorse, and preach only the King James Version. The King James Bible will be the only Bible used by the teachers, preachers, and lay people participating in the ministries of this church. (II Tim. 3:16-17; II Peter 1:21; Rev. 22:18-19).

·We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit—the Trinity. They are co-eternal in being, co-identical in nature, co-equal in power and glory, and have the same attributes and perfections (I John 5:7; Matt. 28:19; Deut. 6:4; II Cor. 13:14; John 14:10, 26).

·We believe man was created in the image and likeness of God but voluntarily fell from his sinless state and thereby incurred not only physical death but also that spiritual death which is the eternal separation from God and an everlasting abode in Hell, that all human beings are henceforth born with a sinful nature and become sinners by choice and practice, in thought, word, and deed, and that sin creates a debt which no man can pay for himself (Rom. 3:23; 5:12; Gen. 1:26,27; 3).

·We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, that He was supernaturally begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, and is truly, totally God and truly, totally man (Matt. 1:20-21; Luke 1:35-36; 2:10-11). He is the only begotten Son of God (John 1:14; 3:16, 18; I John 4:9) and at the same time God the Son; the Lord Jesus Christ, sinless, omnipotent, omniscient, Saviour of sinners, King of kings, and Lord of lords and the ONLY way to Heaven.

·We believe in the literal, physical, bodily resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, in His literal, physical, bodily ascension into Heaven and in His present work there as High Priest, Mediator, and Advocate for us (Heb. 9:24; 10:20-21; I Tim. 2:5-6; I John 2:1, 2).
|
| |
·We believe in the literal, everlasting, conscious blessedness of the redeemed in Heaven ad the literal, everlasting, conscious punishment of the lost in Hell (Rev. 20:1, John 14:1-3 Matt. 25:46, Matt. 10:28).
|
| |
·We believe in “that blessed hope,” the personal, literal and visible pre-tribulational, pre-millennial return of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ (I Thess. 4:13-18; II Thess. 2:1-3).The second coming will be a two-phased event: the rapture and then the revelation. The rapture will be followed by a seven-year period of great tribulation on earth (Rev. 4-18). At the end of the Tribulation period, Christ will return to rule and reign on the earth for one thousand grand and glorious years (Rev. 20:4-6)

| |
·We believe that the command to get the Gospel to the world is a clear and unmistakable mandate, that this command is therefore, the commission of God to all of us who are saved (Matt. 28:18-20; Mark 16:15; John 20:21; Acts 1:8; Rom. 10:13-15).
|
| |
·We believe the Scriptures teach that a local church is a congregation of baptized believers, associated by a covenant of faith and fellowship of the Gospel, observing the ordinances of Christ, governed by His Laws, and exercising the gifts, rights and privileges invested in them by His Word; that its only scriptural officers are bishops or pastors (pastor, bishop and elder are three terms for the same office) and deacons, whose qualifications, claims and duties are clearly defined in the New Testament. I Tim. 3, Titus 1).
