Doctrinal Statement:

1.      We believe love for God and for one another are the greatest commandments.  We cannot serve God without love in our hearts. (Math. 22:35-40; I Cor. 13:1-3)

2.      We believe the whole Bible is inspired by God, and is our all-sufficient rule of faith and practice.  (II Tim. 3:16&17; Ps. 119:160)  

3.      We believe Jesus started his Church during his personal earthly ministry.  (Math. 16:18; 18:17) 

4.      We believe a person must be born again (saved) in order to escape hell and enter Heaven.  (John 3:3) 

5.      We believe you are saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus, and the requirements for salvation are repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.  (John 3:16; Acts 20:21; Eph. 2:8&9)  

6.      We believe that the Holy Spirit convicts sinners, regenerates, seals, secures, and indwells every believer.  (John 16:8&9; Eph. 1:13&14) 

7.      We believe a Church is a local visible body of scriptural baptized believers.  (Acts 2:41) 

8.      We believe the Lord gave his Church the two pictorial ordinances of baptism and the Lord’s Supper.  (Math. 26:26-29; Math. 28:19&20)

9.      We believe that scriptural baptism can only be administered by a true New Testament Church, and the candidate must be a born again believer.  Only total submersion correctly pictures the death burial and resurrection of Jesus.  (Acts 8:12; Math. 28:18-20) 

10. We believe Jesus Christ is the head and founder of the Church, and no other ecclesiastical body may exercise authority over it.  (Eph. 4:15) 

11. We believe in the historical succession of our church and Baptist beliefs from the time of Christ until now.  At no point in time has there ceased to exist a true New Testament Church with the Baptist beliefs.  (Eph. 3:21)
