We believe in the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, sinless life, miracles, sacrificial death to save us from our sins, and His resurrection and ascension to heaven.

We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the believer is enabled to live a holy life. Sanctification is the process of being separated from sin and dedicated to God, which begins at salvation and continues throughout the lifetime of the believer.
Galatians 5:22-23, I Thessalonians 4:3-5, 5:23, II Peter 3:18

We believe in the baptism of the Holy Spirit which is promised to all believers subsequent to salvation as the entrance into a Spirit-filled life including: a prayer language (speaking in tongues), gifts of the Holy Spirit, and power to be a witness and anointed servant of God.

We believe in the responsibility of every believer to reach the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 28:19-20, Mark 16:15-20, Acts 1:8, 2:40-41, 47
