What We Believe

We believe Jesus Christ shed His blood for the remission of sins that are past (Romans 3:25; I John 1:7), for the regeneration of penitent sinners, and for salvation from sin and from sinning. (Ephesians 2:1-10; I John 3:5-10)

We believe, teach, and firmly maintain the scriptural doctrine of justification by faith alone through the blood. (Romans 3:24-25; Romans 5:6-9; Ephesians 1:7; Colossians 1:14)

We believe that Jesus Christ shed His blood for the complete cleansing of the justified believer from all indwelling sin and from its pollution subsequent to regeneration. (John 17:17; Acts 26:18; Romans 6:6; I Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 13:12: I John 1:7-9)

We believe that sanctification is a second definite instantaneous work of grace, obtainable by faith on the part of the fully justified believer. (Exodus 31:13; Leviticus 11:44-45; Leviticus 20:7-8; St. Luke 24:50-51; Hebrews 10:9-14)

We believe that the Pentecostal baptism of the Holy Ghost and Fire is obtainable by definite act of appropriating faith on the part of the wholly sanctified believer and that the initial evidence of the reception of this experience is speaking with other tongues as the spirit gives the utterance. (Acts 1:5; Acts 2:1-4; Acts 9:14-17; Acts 10:44-46; Acts 19:6)

We believe in divine healing as in the atonement. (Exodus 15:26, Psalm 103:3; Isaiah 53:4-5; Matthew 8:16-17; Mark 16:14-15; Acts 8:7; James 5:14-15)

We believe in the imminent personal pre-millennial second coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ. (I Thessalonians 4:14-18; Titus 2:13: II Peter 3:1-14; Matthew 24:20-44) and we love and wait for His appearing. (II Timothy 4:8)
