Our Beliefs
Salvation Comes Through Jesus
Salvation is deliverance from spiritual death and enslavement to sin. God rescues all who believe and accept His free offer of forgiveness. Our only hope of redemption from the fallen sinful state is through the blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son–blood that was shed as Jesus died on the cross. Through Jesus' resurrection from the dead, we are able to live a new life, and no longer need to fear death. (Luke 24:47; John 3:3,16,17; Rom. 8:16; 10:13-15; Eph. 2:8,9; 4:24; Titus 2:11-12; 3:5-7)

God Still Heals People Today
Divine healing is an integral part of God's good news. Deliverance from sickness is possible because of Jesus' victory over sin and death, and is available to all who call on him. (Isa. 53:4,5; Matt. 8:16,17; James 5:14-16)

God Gives Us the Power to Live Life His Way
All believers are entitled to receive the "baptism in the Holy Spirit," and therefore should expect and earnestly seek the promise of the Father, according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ. This was the normal experience of all believers in the early Christian church. With the experience comes the provision of power for victorious Christian living and productive service. It also provides believers with specific spiritual gifts for more effective ministry. The baptism of Christians in the Holy Spirit is accompanied by the initial physical sign of speaking in other "tongues" (unlearned languages) as the Spirit of God gives them audible expression. (Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4,8; 2:4; 8:12-17; 10:44-46; 11:14-16; 15:7-9; 1 Cor. 12:1-31)

Jesus Will Return to Rule the World
God has made Jesus the rightful ruler over everyone and everything. One day soon, Jesus will return to judge the world and establish his kingdom, full of justice and love. Those who follow him can expect to find a place at his side and a reward for faithful service. Those who oppose or ignore God's command to repent can expect punishment and exclusion from God's kingdom. (Php. 2:9-11; Rom. 8:18-25; 1 Cor. 15; 1 Thes. 4:13-5:11; Rev. 22:12-14)
