---- Declaration of Faith ----
We believe:

1. In the verbal inspiration of the Bible.
2. In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost.
3. That Jesus Christ is the only begotten son the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of God the Father as the Intercessor.
4. That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and is necessary for forgiveness of sins.
5. That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
6. In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
7. Holiness to be God’s stand of living for His people.
8. In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.
9. In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism in the Holy Ghost.
10. In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
11. Divine healing is provided for all in the Atonement.
12. In the Lord’s Supper and washing of the saint’s feet.
13. In the premillennial second coming of the Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on earth a thousand years.
14. In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
