What We Believe

The Bible

​

We believe the Bible is given by inspiration, the infallible, inerrant Word of God (Prov. 30:5). We believe the “holy scriptures” (2 Tim. 3:15) have been preserved in the English Authorized King James Version, and are thereby “given by inspiration of God” (2 Tim. 3:16). 

​

Jesus Christ
 

We believe in the Deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His substitutionary death for sinners, His literal bodily resurrection, and His second coming.

 

Salvation
 

We believe that salvation is “by grace through faith” (Eph. 2:8,9) in the finished work of Jesus Christ, and “not by works of righteousness which we have done” (Titus 3:5). We believe when a person is saved they are saved from the penalty of sin, which is a literal burning hell (Psa. 9:17; Luke 16). We further believe in the eternal security of the child of God, that no saved believer is in danger of losing their salvation (Rom. 8:38, 39; John 10:28).

 

Church Ordinances
 

We believe in baptism (by immersion) and the Lord’s Supper as the only two scriptural ordinances. We believe a person should be baptized after they have been saved (Acts 8) and that the Lord’s Supper is for all who have been born again (1 Cor. 11).

 

The Church
 

We believe in two scriptural uses of the word church (i.e. body of all believers, local body of believers). We believe all people who have been born again are a part of “the church, which is his body,” and therefore they should join an autonomous local church that stands on the authority and teachings of the KJV Bible. 

 

Doctrine
 

We are Baptist in doctrine, and traditional in music, worship and preaching. We are dispensational in theology. We believe in the imminent return of Jesus Christ to rapture all believers (1 Thess. 4:13-18) before the Great Tribulation. We also believe in the pre-millennial return of Christ to the earth (Rev.19,20).
