I believe in: The Holy Bible (Gods Word) as the only, and final authority in the Christian life. The Holy Trinity – God as an undivided unity, God Father, God Son, and God Holy Spirit. The Virgin birth, Crucifixion, and Resurrection.
That the Lord Jesus Christ was, and is both God and Man, and was co-eternal with the Father from the beginning. Descended from Heaven, to take upon himself flesh; to work, teach, and dwell among men. Was crucified, and shed his blood for the forgiveness of our sins. And was resurrected on the third day to justify our faith, and ascended to the Father in Heaven to assure us of our salvation. That the Lord Jesus will return at the end of the age to reward the faithfull, judge the quick and the dead, and establish his everlasting Kingdom on Earth.
I believe in: Baptism by emersion, the Lords Supper, and the power of Prayer as effective in all things, and for all Men.
I believe: the lord Jesus Christ holds all authority in the Church, not the Minister, or Pastor.
I believe: the calling to ministry to be of the Holy Spirit, not by a degree of formal eduction.
I believe: it is not the Faithful Church or individual Christians call to be involved in the laws, or the politics of running this or any other country. It is our call to save the lost by Preaching the Gospel of Christ, and speaking out against Sin - especially when it is found in the body of Christ.
This is our Lords command: Mark 16:15 – "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature" – KJV.
I hold all the above in Faith and Love, judging nothing before the time when the Lord Jesus Christ shall judge all. Speaking evil of no Man, treating all with love and compassion.
