“‘Do
you understand what you are reading?’
Philip asked. ‘How can I,’ [the Ethiopian]
said, ‘unless someone explains it to me.’

Acts 8:30-31
1.
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only
infallible, authoritative Word of God.
2.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent
in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
3. We believe in the deity of
our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in
His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious
and atoning death through His shed blood, in His
bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right
hand of the Father, and in His personal return
in power and glory.
4. We believe that for the salvation of lost and
sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit
is absolutely essential.
5. We believe in the present
ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling
the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
6. We believe in the resurrection
of both the saved and the lost; they that are
saved unto the resurrection of life and they that
are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
7. We believe
in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord
Jesus Christ.
