- Regeneration: Regeneration is necessary according to John 3:3. The act of regeneration is performed by the grace of God according to Ephesians 2:8-10, also John 3:16.
- Incarnation: We believe in the incarnation of Christ according to I Corinthians 15; I Thessalonians 4:13-16; John 5:28-29.
- Resurrection: We believe in the resurrection of the body according to I Corinthians 15; I Thessalonians 4:13-16; John 5: 28-29.
- Future Judgment: We believe in the judgment of both the righteous and the unrighteous as presented in Scripture. I Corinthians 3:11-15; Revelations 20:11- 15.
- God: There is but one God yet there are three persons in the Godhead. Matthew 28:19; I Timothy 2:5.
- Outward baptism and its form: Baptism shall be administered upon confession of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior. Traditionally the form of baptism has been pouring. The congregation will support the candidate’s wishes to use other forms of baptism. Matthew 3:16, Matthew 28:19-20.
- Sanctification: We believe in three aspects of Sanctification: Instantaneous at the New Birth, I Corinthians 6:11; Growing and maturing as we walk daily with the Savior, II Peter 3:18; Complete at the return of Christ, I John 3:1-3.
- Second Coming of Christ: We believe in the Second Coming as taught in Acts 1:11.
- Lords Table: The Lords table shall be observed throughout the year as a reminder of the sacrifice Christ made on the cross for us. We invite all those who have accepted this sacrifice and have made the Lord Jesus Christ their Savior, to join us at his table.
- Church Discipline: We believe in Scriptural church discipline. Matthew 18:15-20; I Corinthians 5:13; Galatians 6:1-8.
- Separation from the World: We believe in separation from the world, lodges and other secret societies according to II Corinthians 6:14-18.
- Current Social Issues: Same sex marriage, legalized drugs, abortion. The pastor and church leaders should lead people to understanding, finding clear Biblical references in God’s word and help them to be able to appropriately respond, with confidence, to today’s social issues. Having compassion for sinners, because we are also sinners, Romans 3:23. Being guided by God’s word and careful not to accept, condone or ignore sin.
